My OBGYN told me to stop breastfeeding because I'm having such a low supply... I don't want to give up!!!!:'(

Then don't! Do what makes you happy

Im Afraid that might happen to me with my unborn. Take that mothers tea everyone posts about. Im pretty sure if you keep letting your baby suck it will start coming down. Good luck mama

I agree, there are teas and recipes that can boost your supply. Worth the try mama!

It's making me so sad ! I've pumped 2 hours around the clock, I put her on an let her stay for as long as she wants before I top her off with formula. I took all the supplement an everything recommend nothing works :'(. the only thing I haven't tried was the tea @jademarie_x0 @slynn732 @mommy.ortiz4 @beebaby @emileemoreland5

when I feed her for however long she wants she'll go one for hours like she's never satisfied. an then she screams after like she's starving. an when I hand express or pump I get half an ounce if I'm lucky @beebaby

I took this for a couple days and it helped my milk supply rapidly increase

Okay thank you! I'm gonna try that. hopefully I can be successful:) @beebaby

Yeah it was hard because she didn't really start latching till 2 weeks ago. but still refused the breast until about 4 days ago. I've been pumping/hand expressing since day one. maybe this is why I have such a hard time @beebaby

Yes ! before that was pumping an trying to get her to latch. but only now she's got it down @beebaby

I was pumping and breastfeeding and got a lot of pressure from people telling me not to pump. It was a mistake to stop. Almost lost my milk.

Do you have a Facebook?

is your milk back now ? @monicafischer86

and yes I do @santistevanmommie

There's a group on Facebook called milky mamas. They can help you with this. They know a lot of stuff. I think there's even a few lactation consultants in there

@aliakr, stop pumping every two hours. I did the same thing and she never gets full. It drains you. Until your supply is heavier just pump 2-3 times a day. I'm getting about 2-3 ounces each time I pump now. It'll build back up.

Yes, She couldn't latch and eat enough at first so I pumped and breastfed and gave her bottles with pumped milk. Three months in she started eating from me and everyone told me to quit pumping. So I did and by the next well baby appt she hadn't gained any weight and my period came. Turns out she was only eating an ounce of milk from each side. Production had almost stopped. Went back to pumping and took fenugreek and drank lots of water. Very slowly milk returned.

thank you I'm gonna go look now @santistevanmommie

Yes that seems right because I'm sooo drained now that I pump an breast feed my milk output has decreased so much @morganmommy79

I had to stop pumping every 2. I was told the more I pump the more I make but with her eating and then pumping every two I was getting sore and not replenishing quick enough because she likes to eat often. So I cut it back to morning afternoon and evening and I'm starting to get a stock. I only formula feed when I'm heading out to go somewhere (if needed). Other wise I keep her on the breast to bring in my milk.

I stoped pumping .it's been 5 hours since the last time. I just finished feeding my daughter an she fell asleep, does that mean she's satisfied? @morganmommy79
