Increase Breastmilk Supply

Hello Mummies, Can anyone share an effective way to boost up breastmilk supply ? Been pumping every 6 hours for past couple of weeks since delivery of my baby and managed to pump 60ml - 80ml. Tried to pump every 3-4 hours but not much milk will be produced. Only a few drops. Feeling rather affected over this as I really want to BF my baby fully. Currently alternating FM and BF.

Am I one if I want to be exclusively pumping? That immense pain of direct latching is slowly killing me. Saw the blisters today. Also now I have engorgement and my confinement nanny keeps feeding me milk boosters food. I’m stressed with my boobs as big as coconuts. Can I tell her to back off with the traditional old wives tales: cannot drink plain water, must be red dates tea.. Please enlighten me which old wives tales you broke. I’m painful up and down (first week pp) and I’m going nuts soon.

I drank plain water during confinement. I can't survive without plain water. Just make sure it's warm water

worried of baby's pattern while he is on latch on

LO is 3 months, he has been noted to have breastfeeding 4 to 6 minutes only and tries to push away.. then he will latch on and off (like playing). He is being burp after that. There was one time he had projectile vomit but after that its a small milk from mouth or after few minutes he will spit up a formed milk... please advise... first time mom here

Perhaps your milk flow is fast. Did you pump? If u pump, is fast n yield alot? U feeding every 2-3 hour? After feeding, burp n carry lo up straight.

Just wondering if anyone pump outside if you cant find a nursing room? Most ppl bf baby but I have never seen anyone expressing milk outside? If I am not latching baby and need to pump just put on a nursing cover, take out my pump? Hope noone will be staring at me?

Yep, use nursing cover. No need to care about ppl staring. Even if u latch, there will be ppl staring.

Drinking Fresh Milk While Breastfeeding

I realised that on days I drink milk, my baby tends to spit up/ vomit more than usual. Is there really a link to this? I am fully breastfeeding.

Baby refusing breast

Help! My baby has been acting weird since we send her for vaccination last feb 17, she became crankier, doesn't sleep well at night and taking only short naps (max 15mins each) in the day. Because of that it's so difficult to feed her, she will fuss for hours while arching her back and refusing my breast when I offer even if she's due for feed. I can only feed her when she's really sleepy. I dont know what to do ?

Don’t give up. They will become crankier after vaccine. And it takes a few days to adjust back to their normal actions
