Thats how I’ve mainly felt, he has several wet diapers and is gaining weight etc. but I can’t get even close to an oz while pumping ( i do try and pump while nursing) its just like he drains me lol
Fennel and star fruit have chemical components that are supposed to help aid in breast milk production. Star fruits are actually pretty good but are quite pricy and take longer to prep then to eat, lol. You can get fresh Fennel or use drops. They can also go in smoothies. Not sure how good that would be though.
Make sure your getting at least 500 extra calories a day as well and lots of water. It takes energy and nutrients to make it so it's already taking away from you what your body is used to. Staying hydrated is important while breastfeeding (water doesn't aid in milk supply, staying hydrated does). There's always a way to help aid milk production just like there's ways to boost energy, loose weight etc...
