Breastmilk Supply
Hi mummies, what do you guys do to boost your supply? My supply is like stock market, sometimes one breast yields 30ml and sometimes 60ml.. I exclusively pump and only latch the baby at night. Any advise will be appreciated! Thanks!
I'm an exclusive pumping mum. Currently taking fenugreek to boost supply and lethicin to prevent clogged milk ducts. For the first 1-2 months I do power pumping quite frequently. Note that yield does vary throughout the day and on different days as well that's normal. But I notice overtime the supply will increase gradually I started from 20-30ml each side to now around 40-80ml each side, with reduced pumping sessions as time goes by.

My supply regulates well with baby's intake - not a single drop extra >< and most of the milk boosters failed me (even supplements from gynae). I did try supplements from Legendairy too
