Producing milk

Question

Does anyone have any suggestions or tips to produce more milk? She’s only 5lbs and it worries me that she doesn’t eat enough bc I don’t produce enough for her🥺

Answer

My baby was around that size too and I had to supplement with formula.

Answer

Also try eating a bowl of oatmeal in the morning and when feeding use the haakaa on the opposite breast

Answer

Do you have an electric breast pump? You can nurse and then pump for 10-20 after each nursing session. Or you can pump between feeds. Breastfeeding works on supply and demand so the more milk you remove, the more your body makes. 
Feed your baby whenever she shows hunger cues not only to feed her, but to satisfy her need to suck and to increase your supply. 
I also recommend a quality electrolyte.
Good luck mama! You got this.

Answer

What makes you feel that your supply is low? And how old is baby?

Answer

I would go see a lactation consultant most insurance will cover a couple visits. They will tell you if baby is getting enough and help with tips to increase supply if necessary
