best way to bring up milk supply?
I already make 2oz per boob at a time
but I want to make more since my
preemie princess will be coming home soon.
I want to make sure she has plenty to eat
plus I wanna make it to a whole year pumping
so far it's only been 2 months..
any help, tips or advice ?
Damn Af i guess its a start for a better month...CD1 for me who wants to make this group for the lucky ladies tryin to get that BFP...lets make this group fun Af due December 9
I Want Fried Fish, & Salad Tonight 😋😋 Hopefully I Make it To The Store.
i'm getting my baby circumcised tomorrow & it makes me so sad. i want to do it but i don't want to see him hurting :( makes me cry every time i think about it
crazy how all the black people were very vocal about wanting support during the devastating murdering of George Floyd but I have yet to see you all posting about Vanessa Gullien the Latina women that was murdered you guys want support but don’t give it to other communities lol typical no outrage no protest no post about her but you want all this support given to you make it make sense.

you are amazing. I think I would have given up if I had to exclusively pump. You have my respect!!

I have a good supply, but at the hospital since I have to bring it all up there at the moment. I drink a lot of water .
thank you both for the tips @mom2thehs & @harleysmomma1228

not so far. I usually put a little bit of milk and honey in it. I usually only get headaches of I'm dehydrated, make sure you're drinking lots of water!!

ok then definitely pump throughout the hour every 2 to 3 hours.. watch out for oversupply bc that will hurt your boobs and the milk won't be the best part of your supply on baby.. hindmilk etc etc. make sure your pump flanges are changed periodically too for the sake of your nipples lol @xxmegankxx

@gypsy.soul2, I'm not going to breast feed, I'm going to continue pumping when she comes home. I know 2 oz is a lot but I wanna make more to make sure has enough when she does come home. she has about 40+ bottles that are frozen in the nicu already. I want a good stock pile

other methods may actually mess with your supply and let down against baby.. join Expression! Lactation group on fb, I'm apart of it and I love all the advice and there's so many mommas of preemies who ebf them that can help

2oz is really good for the start. contrary to popular belief, the only way to up it is to keep latching or nursing baby bc BF is all about supply and demand.. another thing you can do is pump every 20 min every 2 or 3 hours but try to avoid that lol.. make sure to pace feed til baby can get a good deep latch on you too ♡♡ @xxmegankxx
