Hi, be brave...surgery won't affect the breast milk production...it's the stress and pain will effect the breast milk production. Please continue direct breast milk feeding with good back support while feeding.

Hi,
Sorry to hear about the surgery.
You can use any formula feeds (stage 1) . All the formula are the same. Preparation will be written on the pack.
Keep expressing your milk 3-4 hrly.
You can take tablets to increase milk production after the surgery.
Your surgery will not affect baby’s health.
Next Steps
Be brave. Do not worry. Take care of your health now.
