I can't remember if it was on this board or 3rd Tri where I mentioned it in a post, but after I kept getting mastitis while pumping with DS, my MIL brought over a jar of coconut oil for me--apparently, H's cousin (who had mastitis so severe she had to have surgery and stay in the hospital a few days) had switched from regular lanolin/nipple cream to coconut oil--and it's a much better/healthier alternative. She posted this link on her FB tonight, and I thought you all would be interested to read the other uses for it. #27 is interesting and new info to me
Re: Coconut Oil
Holy cow! Is there anything it can't do?? haha thanks for sharing!
Interesting! I'll have to ask H's cousin if she's noticed it helping her supply, she can't drink dairy (all 3 of her girls have food allergies, and she's nursing the baby still) and I know she drinks coconut milk (the icky kind, that comes in a can)
I know right! I thought the stretch mark info was interesting!
