POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy11 months agoA. If you’re expressing only 30 ml of milk after half an hour of pumping, it can be concerning, especially if you feel that your supply is low. Several factors can affect milk production and the amount you can express. Firstly, ensure you’re using a high-quality breast pump that suits your needs, as an ineffective pump can lead to poor milk extraction. Additionally, your body’s milk supply operates on a supply-and-demand basis, so frequent breastfeeding or pumping can help stimulate production. Consider pumping more often and trying to do so when your baby is most likely to feed, as your body may respond better during those times. Staying well-hydrated, eating a balanced diet, and including lactation-friendly foods like oats, fenugreek, and leafy greens can also support milk supply. Stress and fatigue can negatively impact your production, so finding time to relax and rest is crucial. If concerns about low supply persist, consult a lactation consultant or your pediatrician, who can provide tailored advice and support to help increase your milk production and address any underlying issues.
