Nursing

Shaina

Hi ladies, I saw an LC last week and learned my baby needed to be supplemented with 6-8 oz of formula because I’m not making enough for him. Right now we’re averaging 10 oz a day of formula and sometimes some pumped BM as well feeding to hunger cues and used paced bottle feeding. I️ feel really guilty that my body doesn’t make enough! I’m still nursing as often as I️ can when we’re home, but I️ can tell when he’s not getting anything from me so I’ll switch to a bottle. I bought some Mother’s Milk tea to help, which it seemed to for earlier feedings and I was able to pump 2 oz between afternoon feedings too. Has anyone used this successfully to up supply? Thanks in advance...the Mom guilt is strong!
