What soups or tonics are recommended for confinement?

[homemacathy]

Hi mummies, I'm doing confinement now and also breastfeed my baby. I found that my milk supply is low compared to my mummy friends....I'm anxious and stressful now....Does anyone know what soup or tonic can increase my milk level? Please advice, TIA!

Hi you can try papaya soup with pork rib, salmon soup, and chicken essence with vaccaria seed (王不留行). I really like Tian Yuan Xiang's chicken essence because it contains several herbs that help boost breast milk and it's really natural and healthy! As i know they have Christmas special offer now, you can check on their FB or IG. Jiayou, mummy!

Yes, try fish head papaya soup. Must get the green papaya. I found it very tasty too.

Hi there, you can also try black bean tea, dang gui mutton soup, fermented rice soup, and chicken soup/ chicken essence with vaccaria seed (wang bu liu xing). Chinese herbs such as dang gui, wang bu liu xing, and fleeceflower root (he shou wu) are great herbs for boosting breast milk.
