How to increase my supply?

Question

My baby is 11 days old and seems to nurse 24/7 and gets so cranky during feedings.. I can only limp 2oz from one breast and 4 from the other and this is only like 1 or 2 times a day ! How can I increase my supply ? With my last 3 kids I had more than enough milk ...

Answer

It’s cluster feeding, stop with the pumping and just feed your baby (24/7) if they need to

Answer

Try pumping until you’re empty and then pump a few minutes after that. That’s whats worked for me, increased my production by 2 oz since the day before yesterday. Also pump more frequently even if you don’t get much.

Answer

Eat leafy greens for breakfast lunch and dinner. And drink a lot of milk

Answer

Itsprobably a growth spurt and they’re drinking non stop to get your milk up. My baby did the same around that time.

Answer

Oatmeal (I did better with oatmeal cookies), lots of water, blue Gatorade also hydrates and supposedly increases supply somehow

Answer

Raspberry tea + Lactation cookies. I've heard that helps.
