Breastfeeding

Hi mummies, those with low supply I’m wondering how long did you breastfeed for? I’m 2 months postpartum and my supply has been pretty much stuck for the last few weeks despite trying many different supplements and food products :( feeling demoralized as tried a lot of effort and remained positive to increase all this while. Is there still hope to increase supply at this point?

My supply isn’t a lot but probably can give half daily supply for my girl’s daily milk intake. Balance will be formula milk. Think don’t stress too much if you can’t fully bf cos there r tooo many things to stress about after birth. :) you really needs to drink lotsa lotsa water like 3-4 litres a day since milk is also part of liquid. Sleep well or a lot but I know that is impossible with bf. Regularly pump as in every few hours. Some people really v diligently pump like 2-3 hrs but I can only do best 4hrs and sometimes max 6 hrs then pump. For me, as long as I really pump like 4x a day , I still can maintain my supply together with other stuffs that I do. It’s never easy. Even if now it’s low doesn’t mean it won’t improve. As long as you can provide I think u r fine. 💪💪
