Any tips on boosting your milk supply?

Question

Hi everyone I'm a first time mom of a beautiful baby boy 
I've lately been doing both formula and breast milk due to my milk production being low. Do any other moms have tips to increase milk production? I'd rather continue nursing him and stick to breastfeeding and not have to supplement with formula. I'm desperate, can anyone please help 😓

Answer

Fenugreek capsules, mother's milk tea, oatmeal, pumping every couple of hours for 20 minutes, and power pumping once a day. I use all of these except for mother's milk tea. Ick. Most of these came from articles I've read online and they seem to work for me. I breastfeed and pump.

Answer

Pump for 10-15 minutes after nursing. It will signal your body to make more milk. Drink tons of water too!

Answer

Fenegreek is the best natural way. The mothers milk tea dried me up! It was hell getting my supply back! I'm taking reglan for mine now... some ppl don't want to use it cuz of the possibility of depression, there are other meds that increases it too... power pumping helps a lot too!
