Nursing mother beverages?
⚡ Short answer: A nursing mother's most essential beverage is water; alongside it, measured amounts of herbal teas, milk, yogurt drinks, and fresh-squeezed juice can be consumed; caffeinated drinks shouldn't exceed 2-3 cups daily, and ready-made juices and sodas should be avoided.

Nursing mother beverages — it's my first baby and I have no idea, can you help?

Starting your breastfeeding journey with your first baby is wonderful. Not knowing everything is also very normal — every mother has a first time.
Water is the most important drink for a nursing mother. Drinking water when thirsty throughout the day is healthiest. Herbal teas can also be chosen carefully to meet fluid needs — fennel, linden, or chamomile tea are common. Besides these, milk, yogurt drinks, and fresh-squeezed fruit juice help meet daily fluid needs.
With caffeinated drinks (coffee, tea), moderation matters; keeping it to 2-3 cups a day is a general guideline. Avoid ready-made juices or sodas because the sugar and additives they contain aren't good for either you or your baby.
If you think your milk is decreasing, try increasing your water intake — drinking regularly and abundantly is the most effective method for nursing mothers.
