keeping everyone updated on little man. he is now officially on what they call wall air which is almost no support from the oxygen. his chest tubes have been out for a little bit. he still has an infection in his bowels but is doing better he finally pooped for us. he is finally over three pounds and soon they will be moving him from the isolet to a regular bed.. I hope he gets to come home a little earlier the august. we are still working on feeds. because of the infection he can't eat right now and my milk supply is getting worse in going to see a breastfeeding Dr maybe they can help

you are welcome mama.... I tried things that didn't involve me taking fenugreek since that upset my son's stomach when he was a baby and I didn't want to chance the same thing happening to my daughter

look up power pumping, I had a screen shot of a way to do it but my phone broke, I have heard you can pump for 10 minutes, rest for 10, pump for 10 rest for 10.... repeat that for an hour, a couple times a day and it is supposed to up your supply..... also look into lactation cookies and smoothies.... eat oatmeal (old fashioned or rolled oats are the kind to use).... that all helps up supply.... I have also heard to make sure you pump between 1 and 3 in the morning as that's when your supply is highest
