Pumping, how to increase supply?

Question

I’m currently pumping because my newborn won’t latch. Not sure on how I can increase the amount I get. 
Lactation consultant recommended: 10min both sides then 5 min per side after. 
Will this not need to increase as baby gets bigger?? I’m so lost, my first was EBF and I rarely pumped and it was just for recipes 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Answer

Doesn’t seem you’re pumping long enough. 30-40 (max) every 2-3 hours should work. Power pumping should help to.. drink plenty of water and eat like normal

Answer

Make sure bottles are pace fed. You don’t need to give as much breast milk as you would formula.

Answer

I was exclusively pumping at that stage too, also because my son wouldn’t latch. You need to be pumping for at least 20 minutes, every 2 hours. 🙂
