I feel like a failureš
Anytime I try to pump, little to nothing comes out unless Iām engorged from being at work and not feeding her from the nip. Left makes WAY more than my right, so much to where my right looks happy and my left is looking sad š I donāt know if itās my body not responding to my Ameda pump or if its my milk supply, they say if sheās gaining weight and healthy (which she is) then there isnāt an issue but her healthy weight isnāt enough to satisfy my worries.
Itās been like this since after I had my wisdom teeth taken out on 4/26 (sheās 8 weeks old now) and I wonder if the anesthetic messed up my breastmilk supply? Iāve tried lactation cookies, motherās milk tea, fenugreek, hot towels, massages, etc you name it Iāve tried it- all of which did nothing for my supply to be boosted, because I feel like I should be making more than what I am.. Iāve only pumped a total of 4 bags since I had her.
I literally feel like Iām failing her and Iām šš½ this close to giving up and just feeding her on the Earthās Best formula we have as backup..
ANY advice is helpful or tips, ANYTHING ladies, please help me out here. It is all appreciated ā¤ļø
