Milk production

2024-10-19 06:42:15
Hi my baby didn't use to drink mother milk after birth. At that time I used to have milk production but it stopped when she didn't drink. Now she is 6 months old. Can I take Lactare medicine for milk production so that I can feed her as mother's milk is good.

After 6 months it’s difficult to initiate lactation. It would be a good idea to concentrate on starting solids and giving healthy nutritious meals.

Lactare tablet is to increase the milk production which is already there but in less quantity . The main stimulus for increasing milk is sucking by baby . It's difficult to have again milk production as you stopped it months back . If you are having some amount of milk secretion , then it may work .

Hi Usually after 6months , top feeds are recommended as breast milk alone may not suffice the nutrients to the baby. It would be preferable to concentrate on additional supplements to baby
