Gatorade=Increased milk supply
Hi ladies. I havent been on in a long time. I mostly lurk now. On my other pregnancy forum someone mentioned a few weeks ago how they tried drinking gatorade to increase their milk supply and it worked. My milk "dried up" when my lo turned 4 weeks (I dont know why) Well I buy gatorade whenever its on sale. Without even thinking about my milk, Ive been drinking it for the past 3 days and I felt something I havent felt in weeks. I started leaking again. Yesterday while sitting at the dinner table I actually felt my "let down" My breasts started to tingle out of nowhere. Yesterday abd today whenever I would squeeze them, they would squirt (sorry tmi) its something I wasnt able to do for awhile. Well today I got curious and decided to test them out. Madi not only got milk but she was able to latch on! (she would only latch with the nipple shield before) Im going to go out tomorrow and stock up on some more of the miracle juice. I was so sad when I had to stop bf, but now I get to start again. Im so glad that the poster passed that on to the board. So if no one knew about it (or even if you did) Im passing it on to you gals. I hope Im able to help someone just like she was able to help me.

So happy that u got her to latch tho! Keep it up maddisOn
@myHEARTZx3 it wouldnt hurt to try. Im glad you are having success with breastfeeding. I orignally wanted to stop at 2 months but then when it dried up at a month I was sooo sad. Now I want it back...lol I will probably stop at 6 months if I get my supply back
I hope u get ur supply back up...did u try fenugreek or anything else? Is there a reason why she wouldn't latch before?
I bought a case at sams club. I'll let u know if I see a difference
