This is simply not true. Any type of food and fluids taken by you in adequate quantity is sufficient to produce enough milk. The production and quality of Breastmilk is not dependent on the milk intake of the mother. The baby's suckling on the breast is more important and "More the suckling makes more the milk".

"Small breasts may produce enough milk"

Being able to breast feed successfully does not depend on the size of your breast. The size of the breast depends upon the amount of the fatty tissue layer under the skin. Breastmilk is produced by special glands in the breast that are present in good number in all women.

"You have to stop eating certain foods during Breastfeeding"

You can continue eating most of your favourite foods during Breastfeeding. Although some people report some problems with certain foods, that does not apply to all foods. If you are worried about a particular food; eat a small amount each time and see if it causes any problem to your baby. If it bothers your baby every time you eat it, you may consider avoiding that food.

"Working in cold water will affect the milk supply"

Some people believe that working in cold water may cause a cold in the baby but in reality viruses cause colds.

"Mother's milk 'comes in' after 3 days"

No Actually the yellowish milk (colostrum) starts coming out when baby starts suckling and it is sufficient for baby's nutritional needs for the first 3 days.
