Mommas! How do you increase your milk supply? I feed on demand and don't pump.

Question

It's supply and demand. Start pumping (machine or by hand), or continue what you're doing.

However, I have heard from 3 different lactation consultants that check in on me (yes 3... happens when you have a NICU baby...) and they said, oatmeal and/or brewers yeast (beer too, but the yeast is better apparently).

My sister had suggested this to me. I ended up not pumping anymore cause I just wasn't keeping up with her after I left the hospital and my daughter wouldn't breastfeed so I didn't use it all that much myself but my sister said it had helped her.
