#asktheexperts Ma’am my milk supply is getting low and my child takes only breast other breast milk is not coming

A. I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with milk production. Here are some tips that might help: 1. Nurse frequently: The more you breastfeed, the more your body will produce milk. Try to feed your baby on demand - every 1-3 hours if you can. 2. Use both breasts: Try to use each breast equally when feeding. If you've been favoring one breast, try to use the other one more. 3. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water and eat a balanced diet. 4. Rest: Getting enough sleep helps with milk production. 5. Avoid Stress: High stress levels can affect milk supply. Try to find time to relax. 6. Lactation consultant: Speaking with a consultant can provide personalized advice, they may also suggest herbs or medication to increase supply if necessary. 7. Pumping: Use a breast pump after breastfeeding or in-between feedings to stimulate more milk production. It's also important to ensure your baby is latching correctly. A poor latch can result in your breasts not being emptied completely, which could lead to reduced milk production.
