tips for increasing my milk

Hi ladies... does anyone have some tips for me to increase my milk supply. I have been sick since monday with a stomach virus and have lost 4kg since monday and I feel my supply is getting low. I finally feel like I could eat today or at least try. Are there certain foods I can eat to help or anything I can do. My son is only 4 1/2 months and I will b devastated if I lose my milk. Please help with any tips and advice. Thanks in advance xxx

Hey hope you're feeling better now! The best thing you can do is breastfeed on demand, bub's suckling will bring your supply back. Aside from drinking plenty of fluids, you don't need to anything else. Nature designed our babies to regulate our milk supply for us. As long as bub is having plenty of wet nappies, you're making enough milk xox

Fenugreek

If it comes to it you could maybe ask your GP for a script for Motillium. I had to use it due to my girls being in the NICU for so long, not being with them made it hard to pump enough milk for two. It worked great for me, although with any meds, they may not be suited to everyone. Good luck, and try not to put too much pressure on yourself. :)

Increase fluids, go online and get the recipe for lactation cookies and go to health food store and get milk supply tabs and if you can express between feeds

I use herbs of gold breastfeeding support (it's made with blessed thistle & fenugreek) when I first started taking them I took 4 a day (as advised by LC) & my milk supply increased within 24 hrs. I still take 2 a day.

Oats, flaxseed(linseed), brewers yeast and fenugreek are the things you want to eat and lots of fluids (water).

Try porridge for breakfast then sprinkle with ground flaxseeds.

They are really yummy! I still have some in the freezer I take out ever couple of days. And it's good oh won't eat them because they are 'lactation cookies'

Drink lots of water, have lots of skin to skin with your son and just put him on the boob as much as you can, try brewers yeast, oats and fenugreek. You could also try pumping after each of your sons feeds, but really he will be most efficient at building your supply back up so if he's willing to suck latch him on as much as possible.

pumping help.

So my little guy is still in the Nicu. They don't want to put him to breast yet, cause they are keeping track of every feeding closely and adding powder to increase his calorie intake. What are some good tips to increase milk supply?? Or anything I can take orally?

Also baby getting directly from breast will get him more milk. Their tummies are tiny 1oz seems

My doctor recommended fenugreek to increase my milk supply said it’s safe to use. I just wanted to know if any of you moms have tried it and if it increased your milk supply?

mariacardnz123 @zachattackmomma, my milk supply is there and I make between 2-4 ounces every 2 hours from each
zachattackmomma @mariacardnz123, it’s a supply and demand so keep pumping frequently 24/7 👍🏻👍🏻
mariacardnz123 @zachattackmomma, thanks I try to pump at least 8 times a day
