Nutrition is important for your physical, mental, and emotional health.

Your body will make breast milk that includes all of the necessary components for your baby regardless of what you eat.

However, if you are not eating a healthy diet, your body will strip nutrients from your bones, muscles, and other body parts in order to maintain adequate amounts in your milk.

This could leave you feeling tired and grumpy and could make it difficult for you to give your baby the best care possible. In severe cases, your hair could start to fall out and your bones could be weakened.

What you eat can also impact how much milk you make and how much of certain nutrients are available in your milk.

Eating well will help you feel great, maintain a healthy weight, and provide the best quality and quantity of milk for your baby. Let's design a diet plan that will work for you!

The best source for personalized nutrition advice is a Registered Dietitian .
