Stopped and want to go back!! Is it to late???

Question

So five days ago I decided that I was to stressed out and overwhelmed with the process and decided it was time to stop. I did the slow weaning for the first two days and just did hand express just enough to release some pressure after that (still to this day). As I'm watching my milk supply disappear(which I felt attached to), watching my little guy fuss, knowing I'm not the one providing his nutrition, and missing my bond with him... I'm starting to regret stopping and thinking about going back. Is there any moms out there that stopped and started again? Is it possible? I know it won't be easy to regain what I had. I went from feeding and still pumping 3-5oz and more at times. Any tips and advice?

Answer

Nurse and pump! There's a thing you can do called power pumping that increases your supply. You can look it up on Pinterest but it's something like 20 min pumping, 10 off, 10 on, 10 off, 10 on. Also, eat oatmeal and flax seed and Brewers yeast! I make no bake cookies and just add in the flax and yeast and it does wonders! I went from pumping two oz a session to 4-5 within a day's time!

Answer

I'd probably just start nursing baby as much a possible even if they aren't getting anything and then bottle after till supply is back up and start mother milk tea or fenugreek
