Have any moms tried lactation cookies? Any recommendations?
@noahs.mommy, @arivera64, thank you so much ladies! I'm so nervous about going back to work not leaving him with enough milk, but I feel a bit more confident now I really appreciate the advice 💕
@aidensmomm nothing helps yoir supply except water, breastfeeding and pumping. You can't let your milk sit in your breasts for longer than 3 hours or it will start to decrease.
They won't. 2 to 3 oz is the normal amount. Anything more than that is oversupply because if you are nursing your baby at the breast, whatever you pump is extra milk. You also need to pace feed when using a bottle. So If you're going to the gym for an hour or two, you only need that 3oz bottle to go. All you're going to do is decrease your supply by stressing about how much you're pumping. Especially when you see that foods are not going to help you make more milk.
@aidensmomm your body knows how much food he needs and will only make as much as he needs and your supply will grow with him
