Increase in milk production
Hi. My son is 7 weeks old. I'm exclusively breastfeeding. While my milk supply is fine as he has seen a weight gain of 1.2 kg since birth - I'm keen to learn can I start taking shatavari tablets for an enhanced milk supply? It's important to keep child hydrated well in delhi summers. Please advise.

Breast feed is best for baby
Do continue
Don’t give any thing over and above
His weight gain is fine
Too much weight gain is also not good
It should be gradual
