breastmilk

Drink 3L of fluids a day Eat well, especially carbohydrates and protein. You may try oats, papaya soup, fenugreek, seaweed, etc (variable success with these specific foods) Sleep and not feeling stressed do wonders for generating the next let down reflex to bring about more milk Latch on demand if you’re willing and able. Based on experience, baby’s suckling is a lot more effective in getting more milk to come. In between feeds, do power pumping. If you’re exclusively pumping, target to pump every 2-3 hours during waking hours while you’re building up your supply. All that being said, some mums naturally have a lot of milk, and some have less. My supply is just nice for my LO (but my LO drinks less than most babies), and my supply fluctuates even at 8 months pp.. Bottom line is, you’re doing a great job providing breastmilk for your little one ❤️ Enjoy the journey, and never feel ashamed to top up with formula milk if you need/want to.
