A member asked:
I have heard that swimming in cold sea or taking cold shower will result in drop in milk supply for breastfeeding moms.is that right?

Breast feeding: It is perfectly fine to swim- reduction in breast milk production would occur if your core body temperature dropped, but most often due to dehydration and lack of caloric intake. Enjoy the swim just don't get frozen!
