Red rasberry leaf tea?

Question

So i feel like im not making enough milk.😫
I get atleast 1oz on each breast when i pump about every 2-3 hours
My son is 1 week old. 
I see other mammas make tons of milk.
So i searched up how to produce more milk and Red rasberry tea increases milk supply? Have any of you tried it or know if its 100% safe for baby also?
Or if you have any other tips or tricks to increase milk? 
Please & thank you.💙

Answer

If your baby is making enough wet diapers you are making enough milk. Your pump output does not equal your supply since baby is more effective

Answer

Red raspberry leaf tea is totally ok while breastfeeding. I drink it every few days. Try oatmeal or granola to promote milk production. I also really like the Milkmaid cookies and drinks. Also, don’t use what you’ve pumped as a measure of what baby is getting. Baby can get more milk out than a pump can. My doula told me that if baby is nursing, you’re making milk! If baby is having enough wet diapers and is gaining weight, you’re making enough. Don’t worry too much about stockpiling a supply yet, it’ll happen! It took me 4+ weeks to be able to really pump more than an oz or 2. AND one of my breasts pumps super well but the other one doesn’t. So go figure 🤷‍♀️ You’re doing great Momma!!!

Fenugreek is supposed to help too. Just FYI it will make you smell like maple syrup (not only your urine and sweat but just your general aroma).

Answer

Nursing is better I’ve Had several people tell me and am 💯 sure of it.  But I came to work after 1 week off. So I pump during the day then when I’m with him I breastfeed afternoons, nights (even if I’m exhausted), mornings when it’s time to get up and on weekends. Sometimes I still have to pump go get it all out since I’m not sure how much he’s taking plus he only gets on 1 boob. I used the lactation cookies I did notice an increase then a decrease also 1 oz it was frustrating then last week I did oatmeal and it did help. No stress also! It reduces supply.

Answer

Also—the amount you are pumping is what his stomach can pretty much handle in a feeding at a week old. Babies’ tummies are no bigger than a walnut. That’s why they eat so often at this age because it is digested quickly. Follow your baby’s cues. Ultimately, it’s great for establishing a bond as well as your supply. It’s also necessary comfort to being alive in the world outside of the womb (which is stressful!).

Answer

Your baby is cluster feeding to up your supply! Best way to up supply is let baby nurse! Cluster feedings are hard but worth it 💙💙 if you start pumping this early your risking making your body create an oversupply! Let baby nurse instead

Answer

Is your son also nursing or are you only pumping?

Answer

I don’t know about red raspberry leaf tea but I do know that beer and oatmeal can help increase milk supply. There is also a tea you can buy that is called mothers milk I believe that is supposed to help increase your supply as well.
