Yes you can. I haven't personally myself but know a few moms that did. Start by pumping a few times then trying to see if he'll latch. The body has to realize he's feeding from you again to start back up. Drink a shit ton of water, try eating as much oats as you can and try Mothers Milk tea. All things that can help you produce more milk.

If you haven’t dried up then the more you nurse the more you’ll produce. Drink mothers milk tea it boosts milk production. I had a sudden drop when Athena was 5 months and I used the tea and my pump to help get my production up and fed on demand

When Josiah was a baby I went a little bit without nursing him and started back up! If you still leak it wouldn’t hurt to try

I breastfed my 3 year old for 3 months after birth then he stopped latching and switched to formula then he re latched at 7 months old and breastfed him till he was a year old. Pump and latch him as much as you can and take mother milk tea to boost you milk supply

@kartersmommyy, let me know how it goes. This is the 3rd formula my son has been on bc his body hasn’t taken right to the first 2 we’ve tried so I told his doctor if this one doesn’t work out that I was going to try to breastfeed!
