My first was a preemie and second low birth weight for 39 weeks. Anyways, you are on the right track. Talk to the lactation consultant. I almost gave up because my milk didn't come in at the hospital. The consultant we had; was our birthing instructor for our first. When she saw us she remembered who we were and a sign of comfort for me. I kept trying. Came in on day day 6. Little babies sometimes means little milk in the beginning. Don't be discouraged. I'm still under an ounce per a feeding but I supplement with formula. Just keep being consistent. In the NICU you have the option of donors breast milk to supplement with as well.

Have you talked to a lactation consultant? It sounds like you’re on the right track. Don’t give up! Your supply should slowly increase.

The goal for a preemie is getting at least 3 to 4 ounces per session during the 8 to 10 pumping sessions a day.

Try looking at a picture of your baby while you’re pumping. That always helped me. Also try a warm compress just before you pump.
