A. hi yes , pumping can also help to increase your breastmilk supply. but on other side ,direct feeding can help you more in this. so please try different feeding position. make skin to skin Contact while feeding your child it will help in it. offer plenty of breastfeeds. as breastfeeding work on demand and supply mechanism. massage your breasts with coconut oil, it will help to stimulate your milk glands.
