Is it too late to breastfeed?

Question

My baby is 3 weeks old, I've been breastfeeding him on average 3-4 times a week, but now want to be doing it more as I enjoy it and it's not painful anymore.

I've been paid now so I have ordered a beast pump to increase my flow, however is it going to be too late to start?

Answer

Adoptive parents and non birthing people can induce lactation so it's definitely not too late. Just start latching and pump as much as you can. Eventually you'll get it back. Supply and demand so just demand more.

Answer

No it is not too late. Just start pumping regularly. You can also try power pumping, lactation teas and cookies, etc. there is a lot of information available on the internet.
