Breastfeeding Support Group
While breastfeeding is recommended by many doctors, it is not as simple as it seems. This is a community dedicated to parents who are choosing to breastfeed, providing a safe place to discuss everything from pumping, to questions of whether baby is getting enough, weaning, breast care, scheduling, supply, and more.
Pump in the morning... this is when your milk supply is at it's fullest.
Take fenugreek capsules to increase your milk supply. Drink lots of water and the best way to get a lot when you pump is to pump while you are nursing. I know, it sounds like a juggling act. I would wear a nursing top (like majama tank) and nurse the baby on one side and pump the other side. For some reason, I would get suibstantially more when I did this. I single side nurse, so this was possible.
You can also try pumping for longer. Instead of 10-15 minutes... pump for 15-20 minutes each time.
She has told me to try by hand and see how I go like that.
Maybe you could try that?
