Cabbage.

Hello mummies, I heard of people bringing cabbage to the hospital during delivery. It is for breast engorgement. Is it true??

I had engorgement on the 2nd day of delivery. I asked for cabbage from the nurse 😝

Did it work?

No need. Usually first few days will be colostrum so won’t feel engorgement

Has anyone used cabbage to relieve engorgement?

Wait till your milk came it. It does help
