Is it true that breasfeeding mom should avoid eating and drinking cold foods coz the baby will get cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not true...: Food warms up as soon as you eat - the food reaches your body temperature within seconds of ingestions, and the milk your breasts make are always wonderful body temperature. You heard an old wives tale. Eat whatever temperature you enjoy (if you want that cold glass of milk with a cookie - go for it! you're eating for two!).
