Breastfeeding!

We struggled after my milk came in because it just wasn't enough and my babygirl was not gaining any weight, so we decided it would be best to supplement. Her latch is great, but my supply wasn't. I had a breast reduction a few years ago and I really didn't think I would be able to increase my supply. So we supplemented while I tried everything to increase my supply, and I started to lose hope and wanted to cry every time I had to make a bottle. Not that there is anything wrong with formula feeding, I was just really determined to breast feed. I decided to try fenugreek and holy moly did it work. If you're struggling with your supply consider fenugreek and Gatorade. It worked for me within a few days, and I thought it was one of those stupid things I would try just for it to not work and the pills would sit in my cabinet, but I was wrong and I have milk for my baby. Try it if you're struggling! Or at least talk it over with your lactation consultant as an option.
