For those who pump their breast milk when did you start seeing a increase in supply? Today makes 5 days and i can't even pump 1/2 of anything. The consistency feels like water when i wipe the excess off the breast and when it is.in the bottle it is a thin yellowish color.

Your milk should increase after the babies are born. I'm still working on it. I also drink mothers milk tea and take fenugreek to help it.

mine was like 5 days after I had a lot of milk , but everyone is different, eat a lot of hot drinks & soups to help you with your milk and mothers tea

Uhh you do know not to pump while pregnant right?? It can cause preterm labor.

Plus colostrum only lasts so long and then milk comes in, babies NEED the colostrum first

Oh it says momma to be in your profile haha
Colostrum is the best thing ever for them, and your body will produce what they need. So don't worry!! Your supply will adjust with what they demand. Their stomachs are only the size of an egg at a month old, so right now they're super tiny.

Also, not everyone responds to a pump well. I would try a hand Medela pump, I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine. Got A LOT more using that than any pump.
