A member asked:
What does it feel like when your milk starts to dry up? can i stil breastfeed when that happens?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drying up : if your breasting is drying up, your baby will start to want to feed a lot more frequently and will not gain weight as much. You might need to start to drink 6-8 bottles of water and try to eat three meals Aday and two snacks
