Breasting and pumping mamas, how’s your milk supply?

Question

Any tips on increasing supply?

Answer

You need to feed a minimum 8 times in 24hrs, trty get at least 1-2 deeds at night between 11pm and 5am. The hormone for milk production is highest this time of day. I also used a hakka pump in my first, it's a suction pump that you put in the opposite breast to the one your feeding baby on. I did this on my first and he was breastfed till 16 months when I chose to stop.

Answer

sadly my goal was to strictly breastfeed but her pediatrician wasn’t happy with her weight gain in the beginning (only gaining 1oz a day) so she put us back in the hospital and they made me supplement with formula. they would force feed her 4-7oz every feed when she was only 2wks old. with them stretching her stomach so much my body couldn’t keep up. so i mix 1-2oz of BM with the remainder of formula to make 4oz bottles. she’s 2months wearing 3-6month clothing. but i just feel so defeated that they took the one thing i wanted to do away from me with zero chances of me fixing it.

Answer

I delivered on Sept 13th so it’s been 2 months now. Ive been well established starting 5-6 days after he came home. I took « mother’s milk » herbal tea for 6 weeks once a day to help me produce more so I could pump and set some aside in case I need it, but i mostly breastfeed. I only give a bottle once every other week maybe to keep him used to it so transition later in his life wont be so hard. 
I was able to BF and pump about 60-100ml per pump session (sorry not sure how many OZ that is).

Answer

I’m an over producer. Baby born 8/30 and I make 12-14 oz a pump and i only pump 6x a day. 72 oz or more a day

Answer

Mine is decent I would say. I can pump 3-4 oz out of one side when my son does long stretches but doesn’t eat off both sides
