1) De-stress your life. 2) More skin to skin time. 3) Drink plenty of water 💦. 4) Eat healthy food (healthy carbs, sweet potato, beans and carrots, oatmeal, whole grains, proteins from meat, olive oil, good fat, lactation cookies) 5) Nurse or pump often ( Atleast every 2-4 hours). 6) try power pumping ( pick an hour of day devoted to pumping while massaging your breasts with 10 minutes rest after every 20 mins). 7) Use herb teas fenugreek, moringa, fennel, Brussels, or have milk supplements. Thanks ☺️
I find it incredible how none of this information is explained to us at our doctor's appointments. I really appreciate all of the content you are sharing !
Healthy babies don’t make money for drs. 🤷🏻♀️ my opinion. Baby can be healthy on formula but we know of special antibodies that just can’t be duplicated from breast milk.
Awesome advice! When I started exclusive pumping I was only getting 1-2 oz per breast. Now, in the mornings I get about 9oz total and in the evenings it's about 6oz. My routine? -Pump regularly every 3hrs(except at night, I pump right before bed and as soon as I wake up. -Take 2 tablets of fenugreek every day -Eat healthy(lots of oatmeal, I always seem to have a boost after eating oatmeal) -Drink lots of water!(I can always tell when I'm not drinking enough, my supply dips) -I also take Sunflower Lecithin occasionally to prevent clogs. -Look at pictures and videos of my baby while pumping. I keep these up consistently and now I get about 42oz a day. I am now able to donate some extra! Thank you for the advice Bridget!
Tysm for this advice! Breast feeding is so hard but I'm going to feel so good if I stick to this. It's all I've wanted after having My 1st and giving up too soon❤
Effective for me to increase BM Is to pray 1st before baby latches... Eg. Thank you GOD for the opportunity to BF my baby and for th milk supply you always provide us... Then it will matic have a let down... Its so amazing☺️
There are a few ideas on how to boost amount of milk and discovered let you baby feed more often Try fenugreek or other herbs Use a breast pump (I read these and why they work from Hartlyn Milk Plan website )
Extra tip: I was baking my own lactation cookies and found myself out of time to restock, also worried about burning a batch with my beautiful, demanding newborn. So I looked for recipes for no-bake energy bites instead. I mix 2 cups of oats, 1 cup of PB, half a cup of maple syrup, half a cup of flax seed, half a cup of dark chocolate chips and 3 tbsp of brewers yeast and I get about 50 bites. Put them in the fridge for half an hour to harden and they’re ready. Much easier go restock.
I found a similar recipe, but I have to ask: I think the 1/2 maple syrup was waaaay too much using pure maple syrup. Did you use a corn syrup based one?
i just delivered my second child 2 days ago and i would like to thank YOU for getting me through labor NATURALLY! your video on how to breath during labor & delivery really got me through to the finish line! i will FOREVER watch your youtube videos🙌🏽 #NewSubscriber 💜
@@roshmorales3392 based on my research you could try to find breastfeeding teas,eat almonds, drink non alcoholic wheat beers and there are some vitamins that you could get from the pharmacy to boost your milk production. Hope this helps you !
What i do is i drink garlic milk. I have pcos and so i do not have much milk supply. But garlic milk has helped me a lot. I chop one garlic flake and boil it in water until it is thoroughly cooked. I then add milk to it and drink the milk and chew up the garlic too. My mom and her ancestors have been following for generations. I hope it helps someone!
Keeping your thoughts and stress in check is more important than you think. I remember when I was producing milk if I even thought of my baby or heard another baby cry I would start leaking. It’s amazing the link between our brains and lactation. So if just hearing a baby cry can trigger your body into opening your milk ducts, just keep in mind bad and stressful thoughts can sometimes do damage that we might not be able to visibly see.
So true. Sadly I'm a living experience of how stress killed my milk supply and my baby was barely 2 months old. Relationship stress. Now my baby is 5 months but I'm still trying to see how I can replenish because I really want him to breast feed and not only formula fed. 😢
@@lilrascalish I know, I'm having the same problem. I was pumping consistently well and got it to where I was pumping about 2 to 2 and a half ounces per breast per pump session because my baby was in the NICU because he was born 5 weeks premature and was dealing with jaundice on and off for the first week of his life so he had to stay in the incubator under the blue light therapy so breastfeeding was almost impossible. I was only allowed to keep him out for a half hour every 6 or so hours so I didn't have the time to get him to latch or to really give breastfeeding a solid try. But I was pumping just fine until stressors in my life and especially my relationship with my baby's father started to get worse. I'm still pumping but I'm only getting a few drops per session so I am desperately trying to build up my supply of milk again because I don't want my baby strictly on formula (which he currently is because I can't pump enough). I'm just ar such a loss of what to do and I really hope I can bring back my milk supply while I'm still able to get out a few drops.
Just wanted to share my experience. Power pumping did not work for me, it didn't increase my supply. However, pumping at night boosted up my supply like crazy. Sometimes I would skip pumping because I was so tired but decided to commit and saw an enormous change. More prolactin is produced at night, between 2-5 am. Don't miss those night pumps. Bridget, you are such a blessing to the community. Your videos helped me during my pregnancy, during labor, and postpartum. You are an angel.
Just wanted to let you know I recently had my first baby in December-I was able to have a healthy natural vaginal birth thanks to the help of you & your channel!👏🏼❤️ Thank you so much for helping so many woman!
Eat healthy, don’t stress. Easier said than done, as you mentioned. It’s pretty tough to do, especially in the beginning. When you’re sleepless and have no help, it’s hard to do this…especially in a pandemic. Also, recovering from hellp syndrome. I added in formula more and more,only to maintain my sanity. Now I only pump and formula feed. Baby hated breastfeeding after week 3. Breastfeeding isn’t everything. Your health is. Good luck out there 🙏
Ha didi sach me mamicon syrup bahut effective product hai maine try kiya hai mamicon syrup mera 1month ka baby tha to muze milk nahi aa raha tha to maine mamicon syrup liya continue 2 month lekin eska results 15 din me hi mila muze"+
Thanks for this. My baby just screams the whole time I try to breastfeed but he will calmly drink from a bottle which lowered my supply and I had to add formula. It really crushed me im still dealing with it. It’s so hard cause the whole world makes you feel like a bad mother for not being able to do it. Feels good to at least hear one person say that it’s ok.
For those moms that can’t get baby to latch, you can use nipple shield, I use it because my baby was in the NICU and the first thing she tasted was a bottle so we couldn’t learn that natural latch, so I had to opt for the nipple shield. It’s a little frustrating but you can still breastfeed. I use the medela nipple shield
Nipple shields don’t always work. I was given one by the NICU nurse and I didn’t know they came in different sizes. My nipples were too small for it and baby wasn’t getting any milk and lost weight. Drs said to give her formula so she could gain weight and I ended up hating the spitting up and vomiting so I exclusively pumped for a year. It was sooo hard but glad I was able to do that for her.
NICU mom here too. Nipple shields might not work for everyone but it’s good to know it’s an option, I don’t hear it mentioned much. It helped me in the beginning but a few days into it I felt it wasn’t needed. It took a while for my baby to get used to breastfeeding but we got there eventually. Currently doing bottle and breastfeeding, it’s very time consuming. My supply is low and he has tons of reflux and vomiting from formula so I’m struggling to increase my supply 😔
Finding myself needing to build a stash after 4 months of exclusively breastfeeding. These videos have made me feel so much better about the little amount of milk I’m able to pump.
I’m almost 100% sure I’ve watched every single one of your videos and I love every single one of them literally from pregnancy to my Labor to my baby being two months old almost now. You have helped me more than you know and thank you so very much for that
Really trying these tips. I've been in the hospital with our little girl for 3 weeks now.. I've been pumping the whole time. Terrible with my schedule and sleep deprivation. Now she is back to eating and I've had to pump more regularly/seriously and I really wish I would have taken it more seriously in the beginning. My nurse keeps recommending formula supplementation but I am determined to up my supply! 🤞
I had my little boy last week and he was 11 weeks prem and I'm trying so hard to bring in my milk supply. Stress hasn't been easy but I'm so glad to find videos like this. Makes me have a wee bit more faith in myself
My baby girl was born premature as well she’s almost 2 months old , I’m still not producing enough milk at all and I didn’t have so much help and it’s hard to not stress about it and eat three meals. I hope your having more luck than me ☺️🤍
@@vbuzani79 I'm so sorry youre struggling. I have 2 older girls and I didn't succeed breastfeeding them and I got quite depressed as a result. Ive managed this time around and my boy has just turned 9months old and he's still breastfeeding. I got up every 3 hours at night to express (as well as doing it every 3hours during the day) and I've upped my food intake alot. I also take breastfeeding supps, fenugreek and blessed thistle and my Dr prescribed Dom Peridone for me. Ive been dealing with family court since my beautiful boy was born... ( dad spent 7wks trying to bully me to terminate and now expects 50/50) 🙄 Whatever you do, don't beat yourself up if you're not having much success. You are doing an amazing job regardless and your wee girl is super lucky to have you. I still do skin to skin and that's a big help. One way i made my milk come in more was letting him suckle, even if there wasn't any milk. The sucking sends messages to your body to produce more and there is something in their saliva that stimulates production in the breast. Also try hand expressing, even if you only get tiny results, the massaging will stimulate your milk ducts. You've got this mumma ❤️ be proud of yourself!!
@@KayBee2324 I didn’t expect a reply but thank you so much for that , I’m so sorry about you not able to breastfeed your two older girls, but that’s wonderful that your breastfeeding your little boy and still doing it 🙏🏻☺️ even with the dad being dumb you still managed to not stress too much about it and are successful at it ! This was such good advice and as well as an encouragement. You’re awesome and this was helpful I think it’s my nutrition that I need to work on more and skin to skin 🤍 Thank you again and have a wonderful day and may your children keep growing healthy 💖 God bless 🙏🏻
What really ruined my breastfeeding and led to enormous complications such as mastitis with my first new born as I was only 23 and inexperienced, was to use my phone to kill boredom while breastfeeding. You really need to bond, connect and give your undivided attention to your baby. Having your games on the phone, or even a bunch of people taking that intimate moment away from you or worse stressing you out by giving you a bunch of remarks and advice while your baby is latching is a killer. Kick everyone out and engage in a loving moment with your little one. It is difficult enough as is ☺️
In India, my mom gave me 1. fenugreek seeds juice (soak fenugreek seeds and grind with jaggery or sprouted fenugreek seeds 2. Dill leaves 3. Fennel seeds. All for milk production.
Thank you for this. A nurse in the recovery room was pressuring me because I wasn't producing enough colostrum and I suggested it was because I was still dehydrated and hungry. She said that doesn't affect milk supply and that made me scratch my head. Made no sense.
Ive watched your videos the first weeks of pregnancy to the moment I was giving birth and listening to your meditations during labor and even now as I’m breastfeeding my little man. Thank you so much for all of this informative content! I’ve learned so much & I share your page with all new mamas.

There are many factors in increasing amount of milk quickly and found. One plan I discovered that successfully combines these is the Hartlyn Milk Plan (check it out on google) definately the most incredible plan that I have ever seen. Check out all the interesting information .

Thank you! My baby is 8 month old and my milk supply starts to drop due to crazy life of quarantine while working and take care two kids at home. I feel stressed and losing hope! This makes me feel I should believe myself that I can do it!
I use mamicon syrup for increase breast milk. When I start mamicon syrup within 4 _5 days quantity of milk increases. I have completed the course of 2 months. This Ayurvedic medicine is available on Amazon.in and merricart.in contact 9767955885
I’d love for you to make a video for moms who deal with low milk supply. I know you aren’t an IBCLC but I’m sure you could educate a lot of folks about things like hypoplasia, insulin resistance, IGT and other real causes of low milk supply. So many women (like me when I had my oldest) don’t know about this and badly dehydrate their babies on accident. And while it’s not common, it’s a lot more common than most of us realize! Had I known about the SNS and some other great resources, I’d have made it a lot longer breastfeeding her! I breastfed my second daughter six months with the SNS - five months longer than my oldest! I’m 36 weeks with my third, a son, and I’m prepared with the SNS, my haakaa, Brewer’s yeast, and a few other things that have helped in the past! 😃 I’m hoping to make it to a year and beyond with him. ☺️
@@jlovesworld7182 A supplemental nursing system (SNS) helps parents breastfeed their babies while simultaneously supplementing with formula or pumped milk. For those who still wonder about the above comment lol.
Love this!! I've tried everything and couldn't boost my supply. I make 10-14oz max daily. I now nurse my baby from both breasts first and then he gets a bottle to top up. He normally takes in an extra 2-3oz. When I pump I only get 1-3oz no matter what. If I nurse him and pump after I get maybe a combined .25oz.
Thank you for all your videos !! I just had my daughter and labored naturally at home, made it to the hospital with 13 min to spare 😅🙌🏼 I was 9 cm when I walked in to the hospital!! I watched so many of your videos so I wasn’t scared during the process because I knew what my body was doing and I appreciate it so much ! 🙏 thank you !
We drink Agua de Panela (Panela water) in Colombia. I add Anis and drink this every morning. I see this really works. IDK how you say Panela in Colombia but you can find it in any International isle at the supermarket
Thank you thank you thank you for the power pumping tip!! My preemie baby boy just didn’t have the jaw strength to effectively empty my breast at each feeding (even tho he had a good latch and strong suckle reflex) which made my supply dip. Using the pump to fully empty my breasts at each feeding, combine with the power pumping has made such a difference! Day one I pumped 1oz, day 2 I pumped 1.75oz, and today I pumped 2.25oz during my power pump session. I really can’t thank you enough! I’m so grateful that I’m still able to give my baby boy breast milk and not just formula. Hopefully when he gets a bit bigger and stronger, we can go back to breastfeeding entirely.
The best about your videos is you yourself, your voice is so calming it makes me want to hear you more 💕 and how listening yo you makes me feel a lot more positive about my own self 💕💕 #more power to you
So much great info!!! I wish this video was around in 2013 when I have birth to my son! It was so hard on me to see that I failed breastfeeding in just 2 months of giving birth. It hurt badly I was depressed but I am glad to see this now and very optimistic outlook this time with my newborn. Thanks again. Love how you explain in great detail, you definitely know your stuff!
Jesus es mi Salvación 2 months is still better than none and a great benefit to your little one! Congrats on going for it again! :) If you struggle look into lactation consultants. :)
@@kearabevels4590 I know it’s so easy to feel that way! I also feel like a failure I only lasted the days I was in the hospital because I had a terrible experience. It made me very sad! But don’t ever think that way about yourself! I know it’s easier said than done… however, as long as you’ve fed your baby that’s all that matters. I always tell myself that food in my baby’s belly is better than none. It’s very hard being a mom but we can’t let these things get in the way of being the best we can be, it’s already hard enough after all.
Great tips, loved affirmation portion. Amen. I'm a new mom, age 43. Loving this experience and feel so fortunate that God saw fit for this to happen. ❤️Working on sharing my journey too on my channel. Thank you for sharing 💜
My baby is 4 months old. When he was about 2 months old, I started giving him 1 bottle in the evenings, since he wanted to nurse non stop for 4-5hours. I have a 3yo and my husband works out of region, so I’m solo parenting 2weeks/month. My lack of sleep was starting be be unsafe for my kids, I do not regret this decision. But then came the next growth spurt, I forgot about how your supply adjusts after it’s over, I panicked and gave him bottles, that was a mistake. Now I’m barely able to breastfeed him more than 1x a day. I had no issues with my daughter, exclusively breastfed until 5months, and weaned her at 2y3m. Not being able to breastfeed my son as much is heart breaking. I’m taking every tip seriously and hoping for the best ❤️
I am pretty much on the dot with all your tips and still struggled until I gave up breastfeeding due baby not gaining weight from 3 to 5 months, I started struggling at 6 weeks when baby and I were both sick. I started taking stuff that is supposed to increase milk supply but nothing seem to help. I've tried moringa, maxi milk, Hydration packs, juices, liquid chlorify, I eat high protein, whole grain foods, healthy oils, oatmeal, quinoa veggies is what I eat all the time. I was pumping every 2 hours but baby kept on feeling hungry and didn't take on weight for 2 months. I started him on formula and he started sleeping longer stretches, seemed more satisfied, was burping after feedings and picked up his weight gain. There was no stress in my life except my concern for him. It still hurts to have given up breastfeeding. I was pumping every 2 hours at the end, once I quit my breast didn't even really fill up. First 2 day I pumped twice, day 3 and 4 once and it was over. To me, giving up breastfeeding is like cutting off one cord from the heart. I'm a big believer in nature stuff bug I'm considering unnatural with my next baby if that's what it takes.
I love your videos and all the positive energy. This is my second rodeo nursing. I remember it being easier the first go around. I think mother's age makes a big difference. I almost gave up this time around but videos like these keep me going. I just wish videos would stress not to throw in the towel. I had a lot of pain for an entire month and fought through it. Nursing is soooo much better now. It was pain from milk blisters and mastitis. Let's call it pain and not discomfort because that is confusing. 😅
Hey Bridget! I LOVE your content and have watched so many videos. But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE update this one with a disclaimer about fenugreek. A little research will show you that not only will it NOT work for over 50% of women, but it will actually have the OPPOSITE effect for them. Yes, meaning it will lower milk supply. Fenugreek destroyed my milk supply about a month and a half ago and it hasn't been the same since. I couldn't believe what I found when I did a little bit of research. There's a reason that Legendary Milk supplements all say "Fenugreek Free" on them... I hope you read my comment and do your own research
Thank you so much for your labour and delivery videos I watched them even as I laboured due to to PROM and later gave birth. Now watching in hopes of getting Milk because my baby isn't able to suckle yet so I have to squeeze myself into a container.
Hey I'm a mom of 8 just had my first set of twins and not sure if I'm making enough how to feed both at same time so everyone is happy and not stressed
Can you do a video on advice for nursing mommy’s who have a thyroid problem? I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism & will be nursing my baby due in 3 months but feeling nervous about not being able to produce correctly
For the power pumping session, do you recommend doing so first thing in the a.m when milk supply is highest? Or maybe right before bed if baby starts to sleep for longer stretches? Thanks Bridget!
I feel like we’re friends from how many of your videos I’ve watched lol. Thank you for doing what you do! I’m being induced in 3 days and feel so much better about the whole thing cause of your videos! Thank you!! 💕
First time mom. I had a huge supply from the first day of birth. So much so that I developed mastitis and engorgement. After meeting with a lactation consultant she helped me fix the issue and lower my supply through block feeding. Fast forward ⏩ 2 weeks later my baby starting getting frustrated at the nipple and I felt he wasn’t getting enough milk. When I would try to pump I would only get an ounce out of each breast. Here’s some tips that really helped me up my supply again : -breastfeed then pump for 20 minutes right after (even if there’s nothing coming out). Do this religiously for 48 hours -cup your breast from the bottom and use your thumb and work from the very outer boob down to the nipple in a massaging motion. Do this repeatedly while pumping -be patient! I didn’t realize that it takes literally 20 or more minutes sometimes while pumping to have another let down -make sure you’re using the correct size flange -make sure your baby is latching wide enough -of course hydrate and eat oatmeal but the pumping even when empty will trick your body into making more milk!
33 weeker momma who just got home! When we first got home my supply struggled but things are much better now! Stay strong momma. I never understood how difficult the NICU experience was til we were in it. I hope you are staying strong and praying lots.. ❤ I will pray for you, knowing the difficulties you are facing. Biggest blessing in the world yet some of the deepest hardest emotions to process. I hope you get to stay with your baby. And if you aren't able to, I deeply empathize the pain of having to leave baby. It all gets so much better when you get home... ❤ trust the Lord, He's faithful.❤
My baby was born at 31 weeks also I'm struggling to get milk supply to increase as well...and yes the nicu is so hard praying for everyone going through this!❤
I came here to say that after I watched this video, I pumped twice as instructed. I felt proud to be on top of my game. Then I went to pour my milk into the storage bag, I knocked it over by accident. My labor spilled all over the counter and I let out a loud cry. So discouraging!!
Thanks for all the tips! I tried liquid gold form legendary milk and it helped me a lot to increase my milk supply but unfortunately my baby had a rash from it and I had to stop it. It was so disappointing…. 😢
Thanks for sharing Bridget. When we adopted our sweet little baby girl - I made TENS milk duct stimulation very successful in inducing lactation. After my first drops - I then did a routine combining tens stimulation with pumping every 2 hrs that was pretty awesome in quickly boosting my supply. TENS may not be for everyone - but it worked like a miracle for me!! I find it sad that tens usage is overlooked so often when it was so valuable to me. I would love to hear from other mothers who have found the tens current to be a lifesaver.
@@kristengreer8983 I'll try again to give you my gmail address. I don't know what's going on. I really do like to share my experience with other mothers. I'm sad that tens milk duct stimulation is so widely ignored - when it can be super for some people.
This is amazing to know. Unfortunately my son actually had gotten constipated from the herbs that I was taking so I immediately stopped. I’m hoping to increase my supply, it’s a challenge. He just turned 6 weeks old, and we actually do combo feeding to help. Works for me, especially in the middle of the night.
thank you very helpful i am a mom of four and was looking for more tips and this helps i will definitely try more skin to skin and power pumping since my little one doesnt latch well

Thankyou so much!. This has helped me alot. I'm two months post partum and I'm currently pumping breastmilk as my baby can't latch and I have inverted nipples. My milk supply has been decreasing lately as my baby has been so clingy that I can't pump, & also a few weekends where I'd have two few many drinks, which I've made the mistake to not express before hand...,I've also been in touch with my spirituality and I really do believe how you manifest your thoughts, you will create that in reality. So thank you again! Liked & subscribed 😊👏🏼
breastfeed my newborn every 2 hours. However, after 3 weeks, I want to start incorporating pumped milk into the routine. How should I balance breastfeeding and pumping? When should I feed the pumped milk if I’m breastfeeding every 2 hours? I'm feeling a bit confused about how to schedule both. Can you help
These are great!! I am 10 weeks postpartum, if I follow these tips do I still have a chance to increase my supply? I am at most half where I need to be in supply

I was exclusively breast-feeding and then I got really discouraged and I started formula feeding I hope that I can build back my supply and I can continue to produce breastmilk
I wish I would have known your channel with my first baby . Thank you so much for all the information you give it’s so helpful and has helped me to exclusively breast feed with my second baby .
🥰❤🥰❤ I'm half way through my pregnancy and have been watching your videos, thank you for making them and continuing to make them, they have been super helpful ❤🥰❤
Does it matter which hour of the day you power pump? Does it matter if it’s a different hour each day? And how long do you need to power pump for e.g for a week?
My daughter makes a clicking sound but a Lactation Consultant said her latch was good? I’m still experiencing pain while feeding though… should I get a second opinion? Or see a pediatric dentist about oral ties?
I just wanted to say thank you for your video. It has helped me last year. As I got flat/inverted nipple. It was near enough impossible for me, and baby couldn't latch. I was getting stressed. Your tip on power pumping has helped, even though I wasn't producing a lot, atleast I managed to produce some breast milk. Otherwise I would had given up early on.

About the 5th tip - the only time that my baby(1 month and 2 weeks old) eats really well(meaning that he isn't disturbed, is very calm, eats for 10 min) is at night. During the day he only eats from one side for about 4 minuts each time...and wants to eat quite often(every 30 min-hour) so i am worried that if i will pump right after he eats, he won't have any left untill another 3 hours.
I had that worry with my daughter too, and honestly that seemed to happen, even though I kept reading and hearing from everybody that breasts will produce as much milk as needed. I felt that my daughter wasn’t getting enough because she would sometimes get cranky while breastfeeding as if she wasn’t getting enough , I also couldn’t hear her drinking, and the breasts often felt completely empty if I pumped in between feedings. Maybe she had a bad latch...
I'm a certifying labour, birth and postpartum doula and I'm really enjoying your videos so far!! I have a question though. Do you only share evidence-based information, or not?
is it true for everyone that the more frequent you remove the milk, the more milk your body produces? I find that for myself, if i pump 4 hours after last session vs 3 hours, I pump out more. It seems like that my body needs time to replenish the milk... what can i do? still pump more frequently?
Can you start to use the Hakka from day 1? Or do you wait? Does baby usually nurse on both sides each time or one side at a time? I’m having my 3rd baby in hopefully a few days but this will be my first time trying to breast feed!
I feed baby on one boob while using haakaa on the other, burp baby / wake her a little more and then switch and use haakaa & feed baby on the opposite side. I started haakaa on about the 5th day after I got my milk
Congrats! The haakaa is very useful as your mature milk comes in (2-5 days after birth). Yes, you want to offer both breasts at each feeding but baby might not nurse on both every time and that's okay.You might find my breastfeeding tips on my channel helpful.
I use mamicon syrup for increase breast milk. When I start mamicon syrup within 4 _5 days quantity of milk increases. I have completed the course of 2 months. This Ayurvedic medicine is available on Amazon.in and merricart.in contact 9767955885
I'm currently supporting my 3 week old baby with a formula combining with breast feeding and I desire to exclusively breastfeed. Any tips on how to stop the formula and breastfeed alone? Your response would be very helpful. Thank you.
If you want to increase your milk supply eat salmon.You’ll see a big increase and your breasts will feel full. This is based on my personal experience. I’m exclusively breastfeeding, when I feel a decrease in my milk supply I eat salmon.
1) De-stress your life.
2) More skin to skin time.
3) Drink plenty of water 💦.
4) Eat healthy food (healthy carbs, sweet potato, beans and carrots, oatmeal, whole grains, proteins from meat, olive oil, good fat, lactation cookies)
5) Nurse or pump often ( Atleast every 2-4 hours).
6) try power pumping ( pick an hour of day devoted to pumping while massaging your breasts with 10 minutes rest after every 20 mins).
7) Use herb teas fenugreek, moringa, fennel, Brussels, or have milk supplements.
Thanks ☺️
What is the herb she mentioned after the fennel? That helps grow the tissue back. Thanks
Thank You very Helpful 😄
Thank you🤩👍🏼
I appreciate this 😍

I find it incredible how none of this information is explained to us at our doctor's appointments. I really appreciate all of the content you are sharing !
Healthy babies don’t make money for drs. 🤷🏻♀️ my opinion. Baby can be healthy on formula but we know of special antibodies that just can’t be duplicated from breast milk.
Many doctors arent lactation consultants. Many pediatricians do not have extensive training on breastfeeding unless they took additional training.
Seriously!! I’ve learned so much watching her! You never learn any of this from the doctors!
I agree! I watched this video and thought the same thing!
100% agree!
Awesome advice! When I started exclusive pumping I was only getting 1-2 oz per breast. Now, in the mornings I get about 9oz total and in the evenings it's about 6oz. My routine?
-Pump regularly every 3hrs(except at night, I pump right before bed and as soon as I wake up.
-Take 2 tablets of fenugreek every day
-Eat healthy(lots of oatmeal, I always seem to have a boost after eating oatmeal)
-Drink lots of water!(I can always tell when I'm not drinking enough, my supply dips)
-I also take Sunflower Lecithin occasionally to prevent clogs.
-Look at pictures and videos of my baby while pumping.
I keep these up consistently and now I get about 42oz a day. I am now able to donate some extra!
Thank you for the advice Bridget!
How often are you breastfeeding baby?
Hi momma! May I ask what week did your milk supply start to increase? Thank you
Tysm for this advice! Breast feeding is so hard but I'm going to feel so good if I stick to this. It's all I've wanted after having My 1st and giving up too soon❤

Extra tip: I was baking my own lactation cookies and found myself out of time to restock, also worried about burning a batch with my beautiful, demanding newborn. So I looked for recipes for no-bake energy bites instead. I mix 2 cups of oats, 1 cup of PB, half a cup of maple syrup, half a cup of flax seed, half a cup of dark chocolate chips and 3 tbsp of brewers yeast and I get about 50 bites. Put them in the fridge for half an hour to harden and they’re ready. Much easier go restock.
Thank you so much for this!!
Thank you!!
How many do you eat per day?
Thank you!!
I found a similar recipe, but I have to ask: I think the 1/2 maple syrup was waaaay too much using pure maple syrup. Did you use a corn syrup based one?

What kind of herbs i need help
@@roshmorales3392 based on my research you could try to find breastfeeding teas,eat almonds, drink non alcoholic wheat beers and there are some vitamins that you could get from the pharmacy to boost your milk production. Hope this helps you !
What i do is i drink garlic milk. I have pcos and so i do not have much milk supply. But garlic milk has helped me a lot. I chop one garlic flake and boil it in water until it is thoroughly cooked. I then add milk to it and drink the milk and chew up the garlic too. My mom and her ancestors have been following for generations. I hope it helps someone!
Keeping your thoughts and stress in check is more important than you think. I remember when I was producing milk if I even thought of my baby or heard another baby cry I would start leaking. It’s amazing the link between our brains and lactation. So if just hearing a baby cry can trigger your body into opening your milk ducts, just keep in mind bad and stressful thoughts can sometimes do damage that we might not be able to visibly see.
So true. Sadly I'm a living experience of how stress killed my milk supply and my baby was barely 2 months old. Relationship stress. Now my baby is 5 months but I'm still trying to see how I can replenish because I really want him to breast feed and not only formula fed. 😢
@@lilrascalish I know, I'm having the same problem. I was pumping consistently well and got it to where I was pumping about 2 to 2 and a half ounces per breast per pump session because my baby was in the NICU because he was born 5 weeks premature and was dealing with jaundice on and off for the first week of his life so he had to stay in the incubator under the blue light therapy so breastfeeding was almost impossible. I was only allowed to keep him out for a half hour every 6 or so hours so I didn't have the time to get him to latch or to really give breastfeeding a solid try. But I was pumping just fine until stressors in my life and especially my relationship with my baby's father started to get worse. I'm still pumping but I'm only getting a few drops per session so I am desperately trying to build up my supply of milk again because I don't want my baby strictly on formula (which he currently is because I can't pump enough). I'm just ar such a loss of what to do and I really hope I can bring back my milk supply while I'm still able to get out a few drops.
@@Angel_Billy4-30-23I pray your situation is getting better, stay strong mama ❤
Just wanted to share my experience. Power pumping did not work for me, it didn't increase my supply.
However, pumping at night boosted up my supply like crazy. Sometimes I would skip pumping because I was so tired but decided to commit and saw an enormous change.
More prolactin is produced at night, between 2-5 am. Don't miss those night pumps.
Bridget, you are such a blessing to the community. Your videos helped me during my pregnancy, during labor, and postpartum. You are an angel.
I'll try this, thank you!
The 20-10-10 method doubled my milk supply in 2 days...its amazing!!! Thank you so much for this

Thanks alot Ma'am!
I have followed ur instructions for VBAC and i successfully delivered my second baby through normal delivery.
Eat healthy, don’t stress. Easier said than done, as you mentioned. It’s pretty tough to do, especially in the beginning. When you’re sleepless and have no help, it’s hard to do this…especially in a pandemic. Also, recovering from hellp syndrome. I added in formula more and more,only to maintain my sanity. Now I only pump and formula feed. Baby hated breastfeeding after week 3. Breastfeeding isn’t everything. Your health is. Good luck out there 🙏
Ha didi sach me mamicon syrup bahut effective product hai maine try kiya hai mamicon syrup mera 1month ka baby tha to muze milk nahi aa raha tha to maine mamicon syrup liya continue 2 month lekin eska results 15 din me hi mila muze"+
Thanks for this. My baby just screams the whole time I try to breastfeed but he will calmly drink from a bottle which lowered my supply and I had to add formula. It really crushed me im still dealing with it. It’s so hard cause the whole world makes you feel like a bad mother for not being able to do it. Feels good to at least hear one person say that it’s ok.
@@SocialExperiment232 pls help same to same situation 😊
For those moms that can’t get baby to latch, you can use nipple shield, I use it because my baby was in the NICU and the first thing she tasted was a bottle so we couldn’t learn that natural latch, so I had to opt for the nipple shield. It’s a little frustrating but you can still breastfeed. I use the medela nipple shield
Nipple shields don’t always work. I was given one by the NICU nurse and I didn’t know they came in different sizes. My nipples were too small for it and baby wasn’t getting any milk and lost weight. Drs said to give her formula so she could gain weight and I ended up hating the spitting up and vomiting so I exclusively pumped for a year. It was sooo hard but glad I was able to do that for her.
NICU mom here too. Nipple shields might not work for everyone but it’s good to know it’s an option, I don’t hear it mentioned much. It helped me in the beginning but a few days into it I felt it wasn’t needed. It took a while for my baby to get used to breastfeeding but we got there eventually. Currently doing bottle and breastfeeding, it’s very time consuming. My supply is low and he has tons of reflux and vomiting from formula so I’m struggling to increase my supply 😔
I had the same experience
I’m a new mom wanting to breastfeed… I’m struggling, waiting for my milk to come in finally got a drop today. Thank you for making these videos. ❤️
Finding myself needing to build a stash after 4 months of exclusively breastfeeding. These videos have made me feel so much better about the little amount of milk I’m able to pump.
I’m almost 100% sure I’ve watched every single one of your videos and I love every single one of them literally from pregnancy to my Labor to my baby being two months old almost now. You have helped me more than you know and thank you so very much for that
I watch your video for labor few weeks ago before my due date..now I'm looking at breastfeeding.. thank you for sharing these gems!!
Really trying these tips. I've been in the hospital with our little girl for 3 weeks now.. I've been pumping the whole time. Terrible with my schedule and sleep deprivation. Now she is back to eating and I've had to pump more regularly/seriously and I really wish I would have taken it more seriously in the beginning. My nurse keeps recommending formula supplementation but I am determined to up my supply! 🤞
ThNk you for emphasizing how important affirmations and positive thinking are even in breastfeeding! We truly underestimate its impact.
I had my little boy last week and he was 11 weeks prem and I'm trying so hard to bring in my milk supply. Stress hasn't been easy but I'm so glad to find videos like this. Makes me have a wee bit more faith in myself
My baby girl was born premature as well she’s almost 2 months old , I’m still not producing enough milk at all and I didn’t have so much help and it’s hard to not stress about it and eat three meals. I hope your having more luck than me ☺️🤍
@@vbuzani79 I'm so sorry youre struggling. I have 2 older girls and I didn't succeed breastfeeding them and I got quite depressed as a result.
Ive managed this time around and my boy has just turned 9months old and he's still breastfeeding.
I got up every 3 hours at night to express (as well as doing it every 3hours during the day) and I've upped my food intake alot.
I also take breastfeeding supps, fenugreek and blessed thistle and my Dr prescribed Dom Peridone for me.
Ive been dealing with family court since my beautiful boy was born... ( dad spent 7wks trying to bully me to terminate and now expects 50/50) 🙄
Whatever you do, don't beat yourself up if you're not having much success. You are doing an amazing job regardless and your wee girl is super lucky to have you.
I still do skin to skin and that's a big help.
One way i made my milk come in more was letting him suckle, even if there wasn't any milk. The sucking sends messages to your body to produce more and there is something in their saliva that stimulates production in the breast.
Also try hand expressing, even if you only get tiny results, the massaging will stimulate your milk ducts.
You've got this mumma ❤️ be proud of yourself!!
@@KayBee2324
I didn’t expect a reply but thank you so much for that , I’m so sorry about you not able to breastfeed your two older girls, but that’s wonderful that your breastfeeding your little boy and still doing it 🙏🏻☺️ even with the dad being dumb you still managed to not stress too much about it and are successful at it !
This was such good advice and as well as an encouragement.
You’re awesome and this was helpful I think it’s my nutrition that I need to work on more and skin to skin 🤍
Thank you again and have a wonderful day and may your children keep growing healthy 💖 God bless 🙏🏻
What really ruined my breastfeeding and led to enormous complications such as mastitis with my first new born as I was only 23 and inexperienced, was to use my phone to kill boredom while breastfeeding. You really need to bond, connect and give your undivided attention to your baby. Having your games on the phone, or even a bunch of people taking that intimate moment away from you or worse stressing you out by giving you a bunch of remarks and advice while your baby is latching is a killer. Kick everyone out and engage in a loving moment with your little one. It is difficult enough as is ☺️
Breastfeeding itself is stressful, so de-stressing is going to be challenging lol
I thought I was the only one lol
Oh God, I thought i am the only one always complaining
I agree
Being okay with the thought of depending on formula kinda relaxes me cz m okay with everything.
I went to breastfeed but I am have pain and cut I don't know what to do oooo it's is so painful
In India, my mom gave me 1. fenugreek seeds juice (soak fenugreek seeds and grind with jaggery or sprouted fenugreek seeds 2. Dill leaves 3. Fennel seeds. All for milk production.
Thank you for this. A nurse in the recovery room was pressuring me because I wasn't producing enough colostrum and I suggested it was because I was still dehydrated and hungry. She said that doesn't affect milk supply and that made me scratch my head. Made no sense.
Another Tip i might add: Dont get Lazy. My first child i was lazy abs got discouraged. Now i make bottles after bottle every hour with my second child
Is it laziness or just being overwhelmed with it all as a ftm?
Thank God for these videos...I learnt nothing from my antenal visits and Im a first time mom. Keep up the good work.
Ive watched your videos the first weeks of pregnancy to the moment I was giving birth and listening to your meditations during labor and even now as I’m breastfeeding my little man. Thank you so much for all of this informative content! I’ve learned so much & I share your page with all new mamas.

I’d love for you to make a video for moms who deal with low milk supply. I know you aren’t an IBCLC but I’m sure you could educate a lot of folks about things like hypoplasia, insulin resistance, IGT and other real causes of low milk supply. So many women (like me when I had my oldest) don’t know about this and badly dehydrate their babies on accident. And while it’s not common, it’s a lot more common than most of us realize! Had I known about the SNS and some other great resources, I’d have made it a lot longer breastfeeding her! I breastfed my second daughter six months with the SNS - five months longer than my oldest! I’m 36 weeks with my third, a son, and I’m prepared with the SNS, my haakaa, Brewer’s yeast, and a few other things that have helped in the past! 😃 I’m hoping to make it to a year and beyond with him. ☺️
Amy Jay I am a mom currently struggling to increase my supply. What do u suggest to do
What’s sns
@@jlovesworld7182 A supplemental nursing system (SNS) helps parents breastfeed their babies while simultaneously supplementing with formula or pumped milk.
For those who still wonder about the above comment lol.
Love this!! I've tried everything and couldn't boost my supply. I make 10-14oz max daily. I now nurse my baby from both breasts first and then he gets a bottle to top up. He normally takes in an extra 2-3oz. When I pump I only get 1-3oz no matter what. If I nurse him and pump after I get maybe a combined .25oz.
Thank you for all your videos !! I just had my daughter and labored naturally at home, made it to the hospital with 13 min to spare 😅🙌🏼 I was 9 cm when I walked in to the hospital!!

thank you for this channel..it helps me a lot..i just delivered my baby girl last week❤
Thank you thank you thank you for the power pumping tip!! My preemie baby boy just didn’t have the jaw strength to effectively empty my breast at each feeding (even tho he had a good latch and strong suckle reflex) which made my supply dip. Using the pump to fully empty my breasts at each feeding, combine with the power pumping has made such a difference! Day one I pumped 1oz, day 2 I pumped 1.75oz, and today I pumped 2.25oz during my power pump session. I really can’t thank you enough! I’m so grateful that I’m still able to give my baby boy breast milk and not just formula. Hopefully when he gets a bit bigger and stronger, we can go back to breastfeeding entirely.
The best about your videos is you yourself, your voice is so calming it makes me want to hear you more 💕 and how listening yo you makes me feel a lot more positive about my own self 💕💕 #more power to you
You are literally THE BEST, love this channel! Will recommend Bridget to anyone! Love you girl ♥️
So much great info!!! I wish this video was around in 2013 when I have birth to my son! It was so hard on me to see that I failed breastfeeding in just 2 months of giving birth. It hurt badly I was depressed but I am glad to see this now and very optimistic outlook this time with my newborn. Thanks again. Love how you explain in great detail, you definitely know your stuff!
Jesus es mi Salvación 2 months is still better than none and a great benefit to your little one! Congrats on going for it again! :) If you struggle look into lactation consultants. :)
I know how you feel. With both pregnancies I never been able to breastfeed. I felt like less of a woman.
@@kearabevels4590 I know it’s so easy to feel that way! I also feel like a failure I only lasted the days I was in the hospital because I had a terrible experience. It made me very sad! But don’t ever think that way about yourself! I know it’s easier said than done… however, as long as you’ve fed your baby that’s all that matters. I always tell myself that food in my baby’s belly is better than none. It’s very hard being a mom but we can’t let these things get in the way of being the best we can be, it’s already hard enough after all.

My baby is 4 months old. When he was about 2 months old, I started giving him 1 bottle in the evenings, since he wanted to nurse non stop for 4-5hours. I have a 3yo and my husband works out of region, so I’m solo parenting 2weeks/month. My lack of sleep was starting be be unsafe for my kids, I do not regret this decision. But then came the next growth spurt, I forgot about how your supply adjusts after it’s over, I panicked and gave him bottles, that was a mistake. Now I’m barely able to breastfeed him more than 1x a day. I had no issues with my daughter, exclusively breastfed until 5months, and weaned her at 2y3m. Not being able to breastfeed my son as much is heart breaking. I’m taking every tip seriously and hoping for the best ❤️
I am pretty much on the dot with all your tips and still struggled until I gave up breastfeeding due baby not gaining weight from 3 to 5 months, I started struggling at 6 weeks when baby and I were both sick. I started taking stuff that is supposed to increase milk supply but nothing seem to help. I've tried moringa, maxi milk, Hydration packs, juices, liquid chlorify, I eat high protein, whole grain foods, healthy oils, oatmeal, quinoa veggies is what I eat all the time. I was pumping every 2 hours but baby kept on feeling hungry and didn't take on weight for 2 months. I started him on formula and he started sleeping longer stretches, seemed more satisfied, was burping after feedings and picked up his weight gain. There was no stress in my life except my concern for him. It still hurts to have given up breastfeeding. I was pumping every 2 hours at the end, once I quit my breast didn't even really fill up. First 2 day I pumped twice, day 3 and 4 once and it was over. To me, giving up breastfeeding is like cutting off one cord from the heart. I'm a big believer in nature stuff bug I'm considering unnatural with my next baby if that's what it takes.
Hey don't be sad nothing wrong in Formula feed❤
I love your videos and all the positive energy. This is my second rodeo nursing. I remember it being easier the first go around. I think mother's age makes a big difference. I almost gave up this time around but videos like these keep me going. I just wish videos would stress not to throw in the towel. I had a lot of pain for an entire month and fought through it. Nursing is soooo much better now. It was pain from milk blisters and mastitis. Let's call it pain and not discomfort because that is confusing. 😅
Watched your complete series of pregnancy videos
Delivered normally and now watching your milk supply tips video 😅
Thank you for everything ❤
Hey Bridget! I LOVE your content and have watched so many videos. But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE update this one with a disclaimer about fenugreek. A little research will show you that not only will it NOT work for over 50% of women, but it will actually have the OPPOSITE effect for them. Yes, meaning it will lower milk supply. Fenugreek destroyed my milk supply about a month and a half ago and it hasn't been the same since. I couldn't believe what I found when I did a little bit of research. There's a reason that Legendary Milk supplements all say "Fenugreek Free" on them... I hope you read my comment and do your own research
Thank you so much for your labour and delivery videos I watched them even as I laboured due to to PROM and later gave birth. Now watching in hopes of getting Milk because my baby isn't able to suckle yet so I have to squeeze myself into a container.
your expressions are just WOW, lively and refreshing.
Right on, great tips. I created a lactation muffin recipe (aka Oatmeal choco chip muffins) that are made with fenugreek tea and oats which helped me!
Oh my God, please share the recipe. I need all the help I can get

Hey I'm a mom of 8 just had my first set of twins and not sure if I'm making enough how to feed both at same time so everyone is happy and not stressed
Can you do a video on advice for nursing mommy’s who have a thyroid problem? I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism & will be nursing my baby due in 3 months but feeling nervous about not being able to produce correctly
So glad I stumbled across this video. I have inverted nipples and nursing pretty much ALWAYS hurts
For the power pumping session, do you recommend doing so first thing in the a.m when milk supply is highest? Or maybe right before bed if baby starts to sleep for longer stretches? Thanks Bridget!
My doctor said it was a good idea to do it when your supply is typically low, like 5pm.
I feel like we’re friends from how many of your videos I’ve watched lol. Thank you for doing what you do! I’m being induced in 3 days and feel so much better about the whole thing cause of your videos! Thank you!! 💕
First time mom. I had a huge supply from the first day of birth. So much so that I developed mastitis and engorgement. After meeting with a lactation consultant she helped me fix the issue and lower my supply through block feeding. Fast forward ⏩ 2 weeks later my baby starting getting frustrated at the nipple and I felt he wasn’t getting enough milk. When I would try to pump I would only get an ounce out of each breast. Here’s some tips that really helped me up my supply again :
-breastfeed then pump for 20 minutes right after (even if there’s nothing coming out). Do this religiously for 48 hours
-cup your breast from the bottom and use your thumb and work from the very outer boob down to the nipple in a massaging motion. Do this repeatedly while pumping
-be patient! I didn’t realize that it takes literally 20 or more minutes sometimes while pumping to have another let down
-make sure you’re using the correct size flange
-make sure your baby is latching wide enough
-of course hydrate and eat oatmeal but the pumping even when empty will trick your body into making more milk!
I loooove this! I’m a NICU 31 weeker mom and I was stressing and struggling. Thank you!!!
33 weeker momma who just got home! When we first got home my supply struggled but things are much better now! Stay strong momma. I never understood how difficult the NICU experience was til we were in it. I hope you are staying strong and praying lots.. ❤ I will pray for you, knowing the difficulties you are facing. Biggest blessing in the world yet some of the deepest hardest emotions to process. I hope you get to stay with your baby. And if you aren't able to, I deeply empathize the pain of having to leave baby. It all gets so much better when you get home... ❤ trust the Lord, He's faithful.❤
My baby was born at 31 weeks also I'm struggling to get milk supply to increase as well...and yes the nicu is so hard praying for everyone going through this!❤
I came here to say that after I watched this video, I pumped twice as instructed. I felt proud to be on top of my game. Then I went to pour my milk into the storage bag, I knocked it over by accident. My labor spilled all over the counter and I let out a loud cry. So discouraging!!
Another great vid! Thanks for the info, we got about less than 2 weeks til we meet our girl!
You You helped me to go natural!!! Thank you 😊
Thanks for all the tips! I tried liquid gold form legendary milk and it helped me a lot to increase my milk supply but unfortunately my baby had a rash from it and I had to stop it. It was so disappointing…. 😢
Thanks for sharing Bridget. When we adopted our sweet little baby girl - I made TENS milk duct stimulation very successful in inducing lactation. After my first drops - I then did a routine combining tens stimulation with pumping every 2 hrs that was pretty awesome in quickly boosting my supply. TENS may not be for everyone - but it worked like a miracle for me!! I find it sad that tens usage is overlooked so often when it was so valuable to me. I would love to hear from other mothers who have found the tens current to be a lifesaver.
Can you give more info on this?

This is amazing to know. Unfortunately my son actually had gotten constipated from the herbs that I was taking so I immediately stopped. I’m hoping to increase my supply, it’s a challenge. He just turned 6 weeks old, and we actually do combo feeding to help. Works for me, especially in the middle of the night.
Try coconut water. Body armor drinks doubled my supply!
What were you taking me and baby are both constipated am also taking supplements for breastfeeding. Could this be the cause ?
thank you very helpful i am a mom of four and was looking for more tips and this helps i will definitely try more skin to skin and power pumping since my little one doesnt latch well
Just binge watching your videos. Im due in 15 weeks and think theres alot I dont know yet. Ive learned alot so far. Thank you.

Ab etne chote baby ko koi uper ka dudh bhi nhi de sakate the tab maine you_tube pe video check kar rahi thi to kisi ne yah mamicon syrup ke bare me btaya. Aur maine amazon se yahi syrup magwaya. Yah ayurvedic hai aur bahut bdhiya hai esse muze sach me 15 din me sufficient milk aaya@)
Herbs are such a hit or miss. I recommend that as a last resort because some can decrease your supply
Thankyou so much!. This has helped me alot. I'm two months post partum and I'm currently pumping breastmilk as my baby can't latch and I have inverted nipples. My milk supply has been decreasing lately as my baby has been so clingy that I can't pump, & also a few weekends where I'd have two few many drinks, which I've made the mistake to not express before hand...,I've also been in touch with my spirituality and I really do believe how you manifest your thoughts, you will create that in reality. So thank you again! Liked & subscribed 😊👏🏼
Nipple shields saved me! My baby is able to latch and eat well❤
breastfeed my newborn every 2 hours. However, after 3 weeks, I want to start incorporating pumped milk into the routine. How should I balance breastfeeding and pumping? When should I feed the pumped milk if I’m breastfeeding every 2 hours? I'm feeling a bit confused about how to schedule both. Can you help
These are great!! I am 10 weeks postpartum, if I follow these tips do I still have a chance to increase my supply? I am at most half where I need to be in supply
Thank you so much for this great info. How quickly can I start pumping after the baby is born?

Ha didi sach me mamicon syrup bahut effective product hai maine try kiya hai mamicon syrup mera 1month ka baby tha to muze milk nahi aa raha tha to maine mamicon syrup liya continue 2 month lekin eska results 15 din me hi mila muze$+
I was exclusively breast-feeding and then I got really discouraged and I started formula feeding I hope that I can build back my supply and I can continue to produce breastmilk
I wish I would have known your channel with my first baby . Thank you so much for all the information you give it’s so helpful and has helped me to exclusively breast feed with my second baby .
I'm a 4th time mama and I was thinking I would hear tips I already knew but these are awesome!! Thank you so much :)
🥰❤🥰❤ I'm half way through my pregnancy and have been watching your videos, thank you for making them and continuing to make them, they have been super helpful ❤🥰❤
Your videos are so helpful! Our medical system is so brine
Does it matter which hour of the day you power pump? Does it matter if it’s a different hour each day? And how long do you need to power pump for e.g for a week?
My daughter makes a clicking sound but a Lactation Consultant said her latch was good? I’m still experiencing pain while feeding though… should I get a second opinion? Or see a pediatric dentist about oral ties?
Hi the legendairy milk link isn’t working?? Which supplements is she talking about?
I just wanted to say thank you for your video. It has helped me last year. As I got flat/inverted nipple. It was near enough impossible for me, and baby couldn't latch. I was getting stressed. Your tip on power pumping has helped, even though I wasn't producing a lot, atleast I managed to produce some breast milk. Otherwise I would had given up early on.

wow these are great tips!! I am currently breastfeeding my 7 month old and I think these tips are going to help me out!
And what about sore nipples? From constantly feeding.Even if baby is latched on properly? What advice can you give?
De stress is probably the hardest part ,especially with first newborn just hearing my baby boy crying stress me so bad 😔...!!thank you for your advice but its extremely hard to not stress

I was a super Producer until the doctors push me to get birth control and my normal oweeee told me that the birth control cost me to be able to not produce as much I’m hoping the steps will help get my milk back for my little 6m old

Direct feeding, formula feeding and pumping for every feed and also trying to de-stress 😅
How do you people have time to drink water and cook healthy meals and pump??
About the 5th tip - the only time that my baby(1 month and 2 weeks old) eats really well(meaning that he isn't disturbed, is very calm, eats for 10 min) is at night. During the day he only eats from one side for about 4 minuts each time...and wants to eat quite often(every 30 min-hour) so i am worried that if i will pump right after he eats, he won't have any left untill another 3 hours.
He’ll have more than enough love. Remember that your milk supply is “supply and demand” So if you pump after your body will produce more and more milk
I had that worry with my daughter too, and honestly that seemed to happen, even though I kept reading and hearing from everybody that breasts will produce as much milk as needed. I felt that my daughter wasn’t getting enough because she would sometimes get cranky while breastfeeding as if she wasn’t getting enough , I also couldn’t hear her drinking, and the breasts often felt completely empty if I pumped in between feedings. Maybe she had a bad latch...
Keep in mind as well that your night feed will have prolactin in it, which calms bub down and makes him sleepy.
@@carolinadick6902 My case was the same as yours. I just stopped trying to pump,
I'm a certifying labour, birth and postpartum doula and I'm really enjoying your videos so far!! I have a question though. Do you only share evidence-based information, or not?
Thank you so much, this video was very informative and helpful. I cant wait to see the results!

Does Red Raspberry Leaf tea increase supply? I have heard that from other sources but noticed you didn’t mention it. Thanks!
is it true for everyone that the more frequent you remove the milk, the more milk your body produces? I find that for myself, if i pump 4 hours after last session vs 3 hours, I pump out more. It seems like that my body needs time to replenish the milk... what can i do? still pump more frequently?
Same here!.
Stinging nettle tea helps produce more milk too.
Can you start to use the Hakka from day 1? Or do you wait? Does baby usually nurse on both sides each time or one side at a time? I’m having my 3rd baby in hopefully a few days but this will be my first time trying to breast feed!
I feed baby on one boob while using haakaa on the other, burp baby / wake her a little more and then switch and use haakaa & feed baby on the opposite side. I started haakaa on about the 5th day after I got my milk
Congrats! The haakaa is very useful as your mature milk comes in (2-5 days after birth). Yes, you want to offer both breasts at each feeding but baby might not nurse on both every time and that's okay.You might find my breastfeeding tips on my channel helpful.
I use mamicon syrup for increase breast milk. When I start mamicon syrup within 4 _5 days quantity of milk increases. I have completed the course of 2 months. This Ayurvedic medicine is available on Amazon.in and merricart.in contact 9767955885
Just the right things I needed to know. Specially the “Nurse or pump often” part
I'm currently supporting my 3 week old baby with a formula combining with breast feeding and I desire to exclusively breastfeed. Any tips on how to stop the formula and breastfeed alone? Your response would be very helpful. Thank you.
If you want to increase your milk supply eat salmon.You’ll see a big increase and your breasts will feel full.
This is based on my personal experience.
I’m exclusively breastfeeding, when I feel a decrease in my milk supply I eat salmon.
