Hey! It was only an example - use Natural Cocoa and grind it
yourselves if you like!
What The message was that I found Coffee (whatever brand) to not help
milk supply and cause the baby to be restless and the hospital
wouldn't even give me a glass of straight milk. I had to get it
brought in. Perhaps Diet is a problem because we are "starving the
mothers" with food they wont eat and inappropriate food that doesn't help
baby sleep - without telling them anything about their own diet. I
had a mother say her baby was up all the time - she had about 8 cups of
coffee a day and had not been told that it may go through her milk.
She stopped the coffee (gradually as it is addictive) and baby slept
better and gained weight better.
Why isn't the education there at hospital level - she said, "But they
gave me coffee in hospital!" So it must be OK.
Sorry to cause such a stir with the milo
issue!

*grin* - I actually prefer the Ovaltine Light break - high in Iron
and Calcium - made with milk it is great for breast feeding mothers!

The hospital food for maternity ward is not really breast
milk friendly - women have a choice of generally tea or coffee -
what about Milo?
WIth NEstle being the manufacturer of Milo, how about
Ovaltine?
