Any suggestions on how to pump more milk for a 34 week premie baby 🍼 I been pumping milk for 3 days now I get more and more everyday but not enough for the baby. He’s drinking formula and I don’t want him too.

@ckaitate, I was confused for a second! My daughter sent that angel emoji lol
But I will add, be careful when using boosters such a fenugreek it can have reverse effect and slow supply. Just drink plenty water, Gatorade and eat healthy. Oatmeal has helped some women but the main thing is to eat and drink and pump or nurse often.
@0816mommy, thank you but I’m doing great now I just had to be patient because now I’m pumping a lot and I feel great. No more formula for my sweets 💙. Now I just have to have him latch on and I hope that goes well
MILKFLOW products I got fenugreek pills (plus it has a few other galactagogues in it.. those are things that help you produce milk) and a chocolate drink powder mix you can put it in hot or cold water or milk I always put it in hot milk it tastes JUST like Swiss miss hot cocoa I swear! brewers yeast..oatmeal.. oatmeal cookies. But I really just took my prenatal, the fenugreek pill a couple times a day, and drank the hot chocolate stuff.. and sometimes I had tea too (brands that are good are mothers milk and stork tea)
@roguemommyofjx3, my baby is being greedy there giving him formula and my breast milk but they said my milk is enough but he seems like he’s still hungry
@ckaitate your baby is a preemie so the stomach aint that big momma...i think ur doing great😘😗😙
You may be making enough. Have you checked with your pediatrician and lactation consultant?
Just keep doing what you’re doing. Your body will increase your production slowly. If you pump too much, you’ll end up engorged and sore. Also your milk takes a few days to come in. I was pumping when my son was in the NICU for three days. I didn’t get my milk in until we went home from the hospital on day 4 or 5. Every woman is different. Don’t stress too much. Drink plenty of water! ☺️
@martinez.vanessa1797, thank you 😊 I Am not going to give up. 💕
@ckaitate Anytime! Good luck with breastfeeding. It's a beautiful journey
@martinez.vanessa1797, thank you I’ll look into this
@0816mommy, yea I don’t need any fenugreek because my milk is coming in great because I’m eating oatmeal in the morning and I drink Gatorade and water and I eat fruit too. So I’m actually happy about that.
