A. hi dear You can increase your milk supply by: Nursing your baby often. ... Nurse your baby at least 15 minutes at each breast. ... Gently massage breast before and during feedings. Use relaxation techniques to reduce stress and promote the flow of breast milk. Provide skin to skin time with your baby for about 20 minutes after feeds.
