Recently, I have seen posts regarding the use of cabbage leaves to relieve engorgement here on LACTNET. My question is this: should the use of cabbage leaves in new moms be used with caution? I have been told by a well respected LC that cabbage leaves could actually contribute to drying up a milk supply. If it isn't an inconvenience, could someone give me a reference for the practice of using cabbage leaves and if there are any precautions to be taken in their use? TIA Mandy K.
