If you are experiencing an irregular supply, fear not.
There are steps every woman can take to ensure she gets her milk supply to where it should be namely:
Breastfeed Your New Born: Try breastfeeding your baby as soon as you can post birth.
Pump: If you find your baby is not finishing your milk, or you just want a little extra for feeding, make sure to pump regularly. This will also help with milk production.
Frequency: Ensure you are breastfeeding often. Remember, your baby’s tummy will digest your milk in between one and a half to two hours. Furthermore, stick to your feeding schedule. If you go back to work, pump in the regular time you would feed your baby.
Practice Latching: If you are struggling to latch, see a breastfeeding expert and seek help to ensure your baby latches correctly.
Alternate Sides: Be sure to alternate between breasts when feeding your baby.
Seek Medical Alternatives: Discuss all medication you take with your doctor before feeding. If you find a certain medicine is inhibiting your feeding, try seeking an alternative.
Take Care of You: Be sure to look after yourself. Ensure you are drinking enough fluids and getting the rest you need. Dehydration and fatigue can greatly affect your milk supply!
