Any supplement or tonic is advised to take during confinement?

Hi, FTM here. My baby was born last week and doctor said I can take some tonics when lochia is all cleared. I'd like to breastfeed my baby but have no idea what supplements or tonics are suitable to eat during confinement.....mummies please advise, thank you!

@star_tracy Hi in fact drinking enough liquids can help you boost enough milk for your baby, so no need to worry lah! Having balanced diet and drinking sufficient liquids are the key point for boosting breast milk. You can drink liquids such as black bean tea, fermented rice with egg soup, fish soup, chicken essence with vaccaria seed, dang gui mutton soup, and papaya pork ribs soup to increase your milk supply. Hope these soups work wonder on you, too! Jia You!
