Need drink ideas for ME! (BF/pumping related)
I hate water - it's just too bland for me. I need something non-carbonated, non-caffeinated, that I can drink all day long because my supply is taking a huge hit since I don't drink nearly enough fluids!
Any suggestions?

Do you like flavored water? You can get Smart water and add lemon. What about herbal teas (just stay away from parsley, sage, and peppermint because those inhibit milk production)
Gatoraide, vitamin water....
Do you like water melon? That is a very hydrating fruit, I snack on it all day long.
Also eating high protein and high iron food helps produce breast milk.

I like flavored herbal teas, duh, why didn't I think of that - berry and peach are my favorites!
I've been eating oatmeal but I need to eat more, I need to snack more often too.

Re: Need drink ideas for ME! (BF/pumping related)
i'm the same as you, can't stand water.
so i drink juices, but EXTREMELY watered down. its usually at least 75% water and at most 25% juice. i just need something to flavor the water.
i also drink juices that are for kids, motts for tots is SO good, less sugar & calories, and i still water it down.
that helps me!

I hate plain water too... I do like fresh lemon in it.. I try to keep a pitcher in the fridge.
I do water down juice a lot too... like 75%water/25% juice. I do this with newmans own lemonade and iced tea sometimes too. I try to make iced tea too.
