supplementary milk system

My baby failed to latch properly because my milk supply was very low. After visiting LC, I was introduced supplementary milk system to help my baby latch. Has any one tried this technique and did it work eventually?? Unfortunately at W2, my milk supply is still very low and almost no let down reflex with exclusively pumping. I am hoping that supplementary milk system can help to improve latching and milk supply so baby could suckle again. TIA

It was hard to latch baby at the start for me. Not sure if it’d work for you but I used to turn on white noise when getting baby to latch. After few days I replaced white noise with shushing. It’s not scientific just trial and error for me!

Keep trying k. What may help can be fernugreek, lactation food, loads of rest n warm fluids, n let baby suck on breasts even if low supply. Baby's saliva will let your body know to generate more supply.

What is this system? I also have low supply thus give formula, bb is 3rd month soon.

Lactation cookie helped me boost tiny bit..20ml..

What worked for me was green papaya fish soup! Give that a try!

Pump after latch and also make sure you have enough sleep.

Try to eat food that will boost milk supply. It helps!

If really cannot latch, go with formula milk.
