Few foods we need to avoid during breastfeeding so that you can feed your baby with milk that he enjoys completely. So read ahead to know which food that should be limited or completely avoided.
Constipation and gas problem is common after delivery so avoid peas and gram.Instead take green gram and other cereals which are easy to digest and rich in protein too.
For one month after delivery, if you are breastfeeding then avoid cool food items like cucumber, pineapple. Instead eat warm foods like dry fruits, milk etc.
Don't take fried snacks and fizzy drink in excessive amount.
Don't eat too spicy food. Sometimes little spicy is fine to give all the flavors to your baby.
Limit caffeinated drink like tea or coffee. Don't take more than 2-3 cups in a day. Baby finds it difficult to secrete caffeine and it leads to sleeplessness and irritation.
Give up the consumption of alcohol. Drinking alcohol can lead to drowsiness, weakness and abnormal weight gain in the baby.
Limit intake of chocolate too as it contain caffeine which can cause irritation problem to the baby.
