Milk supply
Anyone got any advice on how to up your milk supply. I’ve been breast feeding for 6 weeks now, I’m going back to work Monday and don’t want to give up breast milk just yet. I’ve been expressing milk but hardly getting any. ( about 2oz at a push)
I’ve tried staying hydrated, pumping after feeds but just seems to be getting less and less 😫😭

I was given loads of advice from breastfeeding team. Fenugreek herbal supplement - switch feeding - pumping on other breast each feed - doctor prescribing donperion (spelling probably wrong) hope of some use!
Make sure you’re eating well too, oats are good for increasing supply. The more you latch your baby the more your supply increases. If you leak on the other side when you’re feeding your baby, try a haakaa to catch the milk x It could also be your pump, size of the flange etc that is causing you issues xx
