my baby will be a month old on the 12th. I had to stop breastfeeding because I was on antibiotics. I'm only getting one 1 1/2 ounce to 2 ounces a day, from both breasts. he has tummy issues and seems to do better on my milk than the formula. any advice on how to get up my supply? drinking more water is what boosted me up to the 1 1/2 ounce to the 2 ounces. any help would be great.

@bekka1071, fenugreek pills will help a lot too!! I take them 2x a day and combine with the water it will help. But nursing on demand and keeping baby on your breasts as long as they want will help your body make more too, it also helps them learn to suck more effectively which will empty your breasts faster and you'll start making more from that. I would eat oatmeal a lot too, or lactation cookies really help:)
