Q.

Hello! My baby is 3 months old I am having low milk supply since I didn’t feed my baby much during first few weeks as we had latching issue and he use to get cranky So I use to give him formula when he started getting irritated But now he latched well and wants my milk more but my supply has gone down It takes almost 4 5 hours to my breasts get full with milk My supply goes down in the evening mostly I pump just 30ml from each breast Is it possible to increase breastmilk supply now ?

A. Hello mom if he is able to latch well enough why don’t you feed directly rather than pumping .. also massage your breast well after every feed . Have a filling meal or a healthy foods or milk before baby feed time so that milk production is good . Foods such as panjiri , dry fruits , garlic , oats , flax seeds , drumstick leaves , fenugreek leaves , jeera or ajwain or saunf water is helpful

A. Due to low milk supply, he gets irritated to feed directly If milk flow is not as per he wants, he starts crying That’s why I pump
