Is coffee a milk killer? i noticed a drop of supply after i had coffee abt 2 hrs prior to pumping.

Hi, What I have read and also that I am not a believer of whatever being said, coffee being blamed for breastmilk reduction is just a myth which is widespread. What basically happened is that because of caffeine in it, the baby becomes fussy and jittery because of caffeine stimulation may not nurse well. And which is taken otherwise that there is decrease in milk supply. Now, how much coffee is too much for you is an individual observance that one can have while watching one's baby. If the baby is jittery and having sleep issues, cut down on your coffee consumption. Please go through the link, it is a detailed overview on this, and an interesting and helpful one. http://kellymom.com/bf/can-i-breastfeed/lifestyle/caffeine/
