I need help ladies.... I think I am drying up (my right boob won't even produce anymore) so I bought some formula and gave my little girl some last night and she ate about half an ounce, and now all she does is gag on it and looks at me with a gross face haha is there anything I can do to get her to take it??
if you want to continue breastfeeding, you could pump the right side when she nurses the left. this will alert your body to produce. or, if baby is nursing for comfort and you know she isn't hungry..latch her to the right side, that will also tell your body to produce.
no tips on getting baby to like formula, sorry!
She probably isn't very hungry, I would focus in latching her on the breast more and as @octobermamma said, pump the other side at the same time to increase supply. Don't watch the clock, let her nurse whenever and for however long she wants. A lot of it is probably comfort feeding, but even that can help keep your supply up! If she doesn't want the formula don't force it, she probably doesn't need it! If she is peeing 5 to 6 times or more per day, she is getting PLENTY of breast milk!
