Stop the fenugreek. It hurts supply more often than not.How much are you pumping? How much are you feeding? If you pump every 3 hours, you only need 3-4oz to make enough to feed babe. Babe only needs 1-1.25oz per hour. So feeding every 3 hours would be bottles of 3-3.75oz. Never more than 4oz in a feed.Make sure your flanges are the correct sizes. Make sure you change your pump parts monthly.It’s supply and demand. Pump every 2-3 hours around the clock. Never go longer than 4hrs between pumps.
Increase Breastmilk?
Hi All,
I’ve 2 mo baby, I’m pumping milk every 3-4 hours and taking lactation tea as well as fenugreek capsule. But still my milk is not increasing 😞 My little wonder is on formula more compare to breast milk but I wish to transfer on 50:50 at-least!
FYI , I tried to direct breastfeed but Initially baby didn’t hold and later I had UTI so to stop feeding for 15 days. I wish baby can latch but I can’t try more as I’m working woman.
Please help so I can increase milk supply by pumping atleast🙏

Nothing helps increase breast milk production. Just stay hydrated and eat a well balanced diet. I would stop the fenugreek as it can have a negative effect on breast milk supply.

As me and my husband only to look after our baby, and with work it seems tough to me, for which I’m feeling guilty for my baby 😞

Thankyou for your reply! I’m taking fenugreek capsule as per doctor recommendation but doesn’t work . I pumped every 3-4 hour which give 2oz in each pump . Also sometimes I can’t do at night.

Also how much are you producing?
