Just keep putting baby to breast as often as you can. Try to use the bottle as little as possible. Her saliva will react with your body and help your milk come in. You can take fenugreek and blessed thistle which will also help you milk. Or mothers milk tea.

I had a C-section too, and it took my milk 5 days to come in. I used a pump because my little one had difficulties latching, although it was just colostrum those first days. Baby only needs a tiny bit at each feeding in the first few days, so don’t feel discouraged.

@athenia823, yeah, first few days, it’s just like trickles of colostrum. Keep trying to latch too.

And ask your nurse or lactation consultant about a SNS (supplemental nursing system). This is a device that you wear attached to your breast with a tube, so that baby is latching at your nipple to get colostrum or formula from a bottle at the other end of the tube. This is to get baby latching and sucking, while also giving substance during feedings for those babies that have been struggling with nursing. The goal would be to get baby latching well enough to get breast milk straight from the tap without having to use the SNS.

Give your breasts a day or two more to get the milk fully in, my milk didn’t come in until my daughter was 3 days old. If not try lactation cookies, and drinks.

@athenia823, no don’t, and don’t get frustrated, baby can sense that. You got this mommma, your sweet baby is still brand brand new, but do everything the consultant tells you to, and be patient it will happen all with practice and time.

Do you have to eat good in order to breastfeed? My MiL always asks if I'm eating good and I tell her yea just because I don't want to argue with her (I only eat like once or twice if I'm lucky a day) but I mean, there are women in third world countries who breastfeed and I'm sure they rarely eat themselves too. She always says that if I don't eat proper meals throughout the day my milk will 'dry up' is this true??
