We
suggest eating cutting out sugar and
sugary snacks. Your baby will develop a taste for "gourmet foods"
since you share the ethnic flavor combinations via your breast milk.
Your breastfeeding nutrition checklist:
1.
Drink
plenty of fluids, so you stay hydrated. If your urine
turns a dark yellow, drink a little more water. If it runs clear, you may be
drinking too much water.
2.
Have five
"meals" a day. Each meal gives you an opportunity
to drink water, eat a protein food like lean meat and a complex carbohydrate
like fresh fruit.
3.
Get your
nutrients from healthy foods, not
supplements. Talk with a nutritionist if you're uncertain, if your diet limits
your food choices.
4.
Limit your
daily intake of coffee and caffeinated beverages
to two cups. Caffeine can affect your supply and also affect the nutritional
makeup of breast milk. Women who drink three cups of coffee daily during
pregnancy and the early postpartum period have 1/3 less iron in their milk compared
to moms who don't drink coffee. Your baby may object if you drink much coffee.
Other babies might be unaffected.
5.
Schedule
your alcoholic drinks. As the
alcohol leaves your bloodstream, it also leaves your breast milk. Allow two
hours per drink before you nurse your baby.
