PTP:  I am wondering if someone may be able to share some tips for a mom
with gastric bypass 6 years ago w/a 34w gestation infant that is now 8
days old and 2oz below birthweight. Was able to receive donor milk while
in the NICU but supplementing w/50ml formula qid now that she is home.
Goal is to exclusively breastfeed by next office visit in 1mo.
Discussed some benefits with barley, oatmeal, alfalfa, fennel already.
Fenugreek mentioned.  Discussed a minimum of 1800 kcals needed/day for
breastfeeding.  Any other pointers?  Thank you for your help!

 

Angie
