HELP ! I had my daughter a month ago and I was breastfeeding well up until a little over a week ago. I just don't produce as much anymore. I continue to latch her on but no luck on milk, ive tried eating foods that are suppose to help, but still nothing. ugh and BF was a big goal for me.
have you been supplementing at all try and pump after 2-3 nursing sessions A day. even if you aren't getting milk. just pump for ten minutes or so. it will help stimulate.
Ook, well def try pumping, the more u pump the more ur body will produce. Your basically telling ur body u need more milk & it will produce it. It will take persistence though, u won't see results immediately but it's very possible!
Also breastfeeding is supply and demand. Try pumping. If she nurses then milk will come. The less she nurses the less milk. Let her use you as a pacifier. Your milk will come back! Get fenugreek from Walmart.
@dashhaberdash, I do drink water, but maybe not as much as I should, I will definitely be drinking more !!
And have you been drinking lots of water? My sons pediatrician suggested 2 Liters a day.
try feeding every half hour to an hour even if she doesn't eat and just sucks the littlest bit that will help and will tell your body to produce milk ....damaned and your body will supply! drinks lots of water or Gatorade stuff that has electrolytes in it to keep you hydrated and eating oatmeal helped me lots! keep on trying don't give up!
