Hello ,
I have a personal interest in this subject. I am about 2 month away from the
birth of my sixth child , G-d willing.
I have had edema with all of the previous births , each time it is more and
more severe.
My milk usually comes in about a week after the baby is born , I do not use
supplementation , just nurse around the clock. I always assumed that it was
just my body doing it this way and never associated this delay with my edema
. The edema is so bad that I have stretch marks on my legs.
I was told that I should not take any pharmacological of natural diuretics ,
because I am breastfeeding.
Can someone confirm it or denie it . It would be grate if I could safely
deal with edema , usually it takes a very long time to go away by itself .
