Hi ladies, I’ve been breast feeding(pumping) for about two weeks now and substituting formula at night for my daughter but I’m noticing my milk production has gone down a bit. I drink mothers tea and eat lactation cookies and I’m not noticing any difference in production. Do you ladies have any tips on how to be successful at breastfeeding it’s becoming overwhelming now. I didn’t want to depend on formula again and it looks like I’m going to have to if my milk doesn’t come out how it was in the first week.

Stop supplementing. Everytime you use something besides your breast you are telling your breasts they dont need to make that milk
@tooserious86, thank you I’ll keep doing the skin to skin I feel like that works best anyway. My first week that’s all I did. I need to get back to it
The more u breastfeed the more milk u produce. U can increase how much u breast feed to pick it back up also do a lot of skin to skin (bare). I have even pumped with my baby on my chest before. But once u slack on the amount ur body slows down.
Hey ladies how many weeks did u guys have your children ? I’m bored so let’s talk

Hey ladies I have a question my baby is breeched since 20 weeks im 34 weeks now but 2 weeks ago my doctor checked if she was still breeched which she was how do I know if moved head down or if she is how will I know I have my appointment again with doctor on Wednesday so I’m just curious
Stop using formula. You’re telling your body to make less milk. Supply is based on demand and if you’re bottle feeding your baby and not pumping then your body won’t know that it needs to produce more. Just nurse nurse nurse! Like every hour if you have to.
