Oversupply and soya lecithin

[stargirl1701]

I have been taking 5000mg of soya lecithin for 6 days now. Over the last 3 days, I have had tingling, chapped lips. I thought I was dehydrated but I have drank 6 pints of water already today.

Is there an alternative to soya lecithin I could take?

Don't know on that one sorry. Have you given one of the bfing helplines a call?

Apparently sunflower lecithin does the same job. I'm going to look for it in the health food shop tomorrow.

I'm gutted! The soya lecithin was making such a difference to the time I could block nurse. My right breast seems so much better in just a week. The left is still crazy though!
