A couple of weeks ago I got braces put on my teeth. Eating was now painful and laborious. A few days into it I noticed that my milk supply had gone down considerably. I thought I wasn't getting enough food and needed to start drinking smoothies. I finally ran into a lactation consultant friend of mine and mentioned my dilema to her. She assured me that food wasn't the problem. If anything it would be liquids. But that hadn't changed. What did change was that it was allergy season and I started taking a very small dose of Allegra, which was approved by my pediatrition. The LC said it has been an ongoing debate with her and an OBGYN. The OB says it's okay, while she says it dries the body out. I stopped taking the Allegra and within two days my milk supply has increased ten fold, as well as my sniffles. signed, seasonally sneezy I thought this was interesting.
