Exclusively Pumping: Milk Supply Constant

Hi All, I've been pumping for 3 weeks now, with the milk supply averaging 90-120ml per 30mins pump session currently. I pump every 3 hours now. However, I am keen to increase milk supply per pump. Is it encouraged to decrease the frequency of pump session as I am not getting sufficient rest (confinement nanny told me to stretch it to 4 hours). My baby is 3 weeks, 5kg and already drinking 110ml breast milk per feed during the day. He drinks formula at night as it makes him fuller and sleep longer (as recommended by confinement nanny). Please help 🥺

I’m no pro but pumping more doesn’t help me in increasing the bm quantity. Hope you’re able to achieve your goal.

Low supply mom here. Recently I’m back in the workforce but my job nature only allow me to pump every 8-10hrs. One side of my milk supply has drastically drop from 60ml to 20ml. The other side still manage to hit 50ml. Any idea how to boost? I’ve tried all the lactation stuff. And pump more frequently over the weekends. Any suggestion to increase milk flow?

Drink more water Take oatmeal, fenugreek

Unlike conventional nipple pads, these silicone nipple pads are non-absorbent in order to preserve as much breast milk as possible. https://shope.ee/AKA6MTwtxY

freelance lactation consultant

Hello mummies, anyone engage freelance lactation consultant after delivery in SG? Can intro?

I engaged a freelance lactation consultant after my second delivery and it really made such a difference compared to just relying on the hospital nurses. But that was years back, you can try searching on the Lactation Consultants of Singapore Lactation Consultants Facebook groups as a starting point, and some confinement nannies also have contacts they can refer you to.

Breastfeeding struggles with engorged/clog

Any mummies struggling with breastfeeding? Am 21 PP FTM, am on/off getting clog/engorged, and everytime I didn't managed to clear it off myself. Seems like I am just not good with it. Sometimes it just got uncomfortable/sore or pain that I don't even feel like touching it anymore. Recently I have gotten a stubborn patch of clog, that caused me on/off having slight fever, even the lataction masseur couldn't clear it off 😔 told me have to clear few rounds as its been there for few days, told me to hot compress and massage need to apply pressure cannot soft touch, I tried, but it felt so sore, pain and don't really clear. Don't feel like touching it anymore, cause it's so not comfortable. And everytime calling in a lataction massage not an idea in the long run too.. Felt like giving up... Anyone were in a same situation like me?

I engaged Mdm Ida who’s famous for her massage- just that her massage you have to lie down on her lap; I did once, was pretty much painless compared to others I did before hers! Then I followed her recommended pumping settings. After that so far so good for 3 months now! I also take legendairy sunflower lecithin for maintenance to prevent clogging.. hope it gets better for you!

Hi mummies any tips on how to increase milk supply? I have been exclusively pumping for about 2 months now but I only have very little each time I pump. Does lactation cookies/tea works?
