A. To increase breast milk supply: 1. Nurse frequently: Breastfeed your baby on demand, ensuring they are nursing often, including during the night. 2. Empty the breasts: Ensure both breasts are fully emptied during each feeding, allowing the baby to nurse on one breast until satisfied before switching sides. 3. Practice skin-to-skin contact: Spend time doing skin-to-skin contact with your baby, as it can stimulate milk production. 4. Pump after feedings: If your baby is not fully emptying the breasts, consider pumping for a few minutes after feedings to signal your body to produce more milk. 5. Stay hydrated and eat well: Drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and consider foods known to support lactation, such as oats, fennel, and fenugreek. 6. Avoid unnecessary supplementation: Limit the use of formula or other supplements unless recommended by a healthcare professional, as frequent breastfeeding is key to boosting milk supply. Remember, if you have concerns about low milk supply, it's best to reach out to a lactation consultant or healthcare professional, who can provide personalized advice and support.
