Is it I must have a balanced diet or what I eat have to be full nutrition if I'm breastfeeding? Is it what I ate will be fully passed to breastmilk? I keep my diet well like eat more fish and no snacks no any spicy no any gassy food until LO 6-7months. Now I start to back to normal diet. Doest it mean that my breastmilk will lack of nutrition now?

Hi, your diet would affect the taste of your bm, but the nutrients in your bm would come from you rather than your diet. Meaning, if you eat poorly, your bm will still be nutritious as it draws the nutrients from your body, but the mother's health may be affected.
