In need of Brestfeeding Tips...

Harleen • ❤Mom of 2 Beautiful Boys 🦁🦁! 1/24/16 & 11/24/18!❤

My son is 5 days old, this is my 2nd baby... First one I tried breastfeeding and was really unsuccessful and got little to nothing until my Milk supply just stopped at around 4 Months. This time my son seems to have a great latch, even though he was just a little early born at 36 Weeks. I have been trying to get my Milk in and yesterday seemed to be the start of it. Again, little to nothing, but it's a start. Tonight I had to admit my son to the NICU for Jaundice. So I came home and slept some but woke up feeling the need to fed baby which I was really excited about. I found my old pump and got total 25 ML (I was actually really impressed with this since I thought I had nothing) So now I am wondering how to increase my Milk supply from here... what can I do so that I am making more then this and more frequently? I would love to be able to exclusively breastfeed, although I feel that is a real long shot. He is taking in approximately 60 ML every 3hrs from a Bottle as I was told by the NICU.

With my previous son I had tried so many teas, cookies, pills, massages and different Milk Supply Boosting items... but nothing worked.
