After going back to work, and having been told by dr I need to supplement with formula, my production has gone down drastically. How can I get it back up and get my milk supply going!?

I use MotherLove more milk capsules. I buy them on Amazon and it helps!! 120 capsules for about $40 but it is worth it! A doctor I work with recommended this because she used these herself.

Also make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids!

I'm using milkflow drink mix from target. I'm trying to get my supply back after quitting for a month. Also I made these..

I heard that if you breast feed your child, it's the mouth to nipple of the baby that stimulates production. So if you are having trouble, maybe try to breast feed a couple times a week, but maybe let the baby fall asleep for a bit and just make the sucking movements that comfort the baby??

Lactation cookies, mothers milk tea, milk flow drinks, fenugreek, lots of water, pumping/feeding more often are all things I've done.

Most important is to make sure you're drinking half your weight in water. Then you can take supplements. I take ones from euphoric herbals. Second the best way to make more milk is to take milk out so the more you feed or pump the more milk you'll make. Supplementing with formula just gets you in trouble. Any time the baby has a bottle you should pump. Most drs push formula.
