@beemommyof3 my milk supply took a week to finally fully come in when i had the baby ..it use to swell up so bad it leaked now its barely alot ..i finally gt my pump nd my son act like he's not getting enough milk
He is getting enough, dont doubt yourself. Breastfed babies just need more because it is 100% absorbed. Make sure you are pacefeeding with a bottle when you do feed that way and if you want additional supply, pump while breastfeeding!
Breastfeeding is 100% supply and demand. You demand more milk and the supply will come. But you dont want to feed the freezer with a stash. The milk you make today your child needs today 🤗
Try mothers milk tea. It's very bitter so I added honey and lemon to it and I usually used two tea bags at a time. It helped me with my second TREMENDOUSLY. You could also power pump! That worked like a charm.

What are you trying to accomplish. Are you going back to work or something like that?

How much are you pumping and how often? Do you breastfeed or exclusively pumping?. When it comes to breastmilk they dont need much per feeding.

@beemommyof3 i will be in 2 weeks yes im trying to keep breastfeeding nd get my supply up it was good in beginning

It is always great in the beginning. Our bodies oversupply at birth. That is normal. It is now adjusting to exactly what baby needs

You need 1 to 1.5 ounce per hour while away from baby so for an 8 hour work day you would need 8 to 12 ounces of milk
