I watched this video 2 years ago while struggling to nurse my first baby. Well I successfully nursed him for 15 months and now I'm 3 months in nursing my second baby!!
Ladies stress can be a big part of little milk it also helps if you eat a healthy snack and drink water with every feeding I'm a mother of four and my oldest was breast fed for 3 years my daughters was also breastfed if you get WIC tell the nutrition they can also help you ❤
I had a c-section and I knew what I was doing but because my clinic was so far away and I didn’t have the support I needed and I was exhausted my milk supply went away. I finally gave into the exhaustion and formula fed. But this is great info. I wish I had the support I needed.
@@pooja904 she’s doing great! The Similac 360 pro is a great formula. Not 100% breast feeding is okay. You’re not going to mess up your baby by formula feeding!
Hey did you know it’s possible to relactate?! I’m currently in the process of trying to do the same & I’m 4 mo postpartum. I successfully did it prior with my other child after 8 months accidentally lol.
I have watched SO MANY videos on increasing supply and I’m talking about 3 minimum per day for 5 weeks straight and THIS one is clear cut, simple and straightforward, making this seem more attainable. It’s easy to pay attention to. I appreciate you so much
You’re definitely right. I’ve talked to lactation consultant from the hospital and the nurse that comes to our house from the health unit but this video just answered some questions that those other consultants can’t.
Hi Marissa! Sleep is the hardest part of adjusting to a newborn. Sometimes babies get their night and day reversed. As they get older things will normalize. You can help baby by creating a routine for feeding and sleeping, which teaches baby when to sleep and when to wake. 💛
@@tuntuna8418 sleep when baby sleeps !! I know sometimes there’s things you want or have to do while they sleep. But whenever you can, sleep when they sleep!
One word: MALTA! You're welcome 😆 I dont sleep, super stressed, sometimes I don't even have time to drink water, exclusive pumper yet malta seems to help anyway lol. For the exclusive breastfeeders: nurse, nurse, and nurse that baby some more. Use a haakaa with suction on the other side. Exclusive pumpers: pump every 3 hours during the day, aim for 8 times and do not skip the overnight pump! (You can sleep for one 5 hour stretch, then get back to it). Oh and MALTA! 😂 I use legendairy milk supplements, I also use various herbs, galactogogues/lactogenic food in my diet but its really not that serious unless you're like struggling. Nurse that baby! See an IBCLC for flange sizing help/pump settings if you're a pumper or need help with latching for nursing. ❤

You’re so welcome! I know what you mean, after giving birth you wouldn’t think there’s any reason to keep taking those prenatal vitamins but every little bit counts. Supply and demand is EVERYTHING! Congrats on your new baby! 🥳😁💛
I struggled with feeding because the nurses didn’t give me any information about how to feed with a flat and inverted nipple.They used the basic knowledge on me ,pinched(and tore my nipples to the point I bleed)expecting my body to react the same as someone with normal nipples.I had to work on pulling my nipples out,forcing my baby to nurse,and then work on my supply too(since the poor latching decreased my amount).Power pumping is what did it for me!Increased my supply to the point I don’t need formula anymore and baby gets full(still need to work on producing enough to create a stash).Also the whole calories thing?I’d call it bs,I gained 2kg the first week of pp yet my milk supply was still very low BUT eating a protein and vegetables/fruit rich diet helps the quality of your milk(makes it fatter therefore keeping baby full longer).So try to sleep,nurse baby as much as possible,power pump at least 1h a day and eat healthy!
I wish someone would have told me about the feeding tube.. I would have never had to pause breastfeeding full time. I'm heartbroken about it but I got an electric pump to help.. I went from dripping to not even feeling a let down. It's very emotional for me rn.. because at first I had an abundance and my baby use to fall asleep feeding then it went to frustration while feeding then I gave her formula to supplement so she could be getting enough.. then frustration when offered the breast. She may latch for comfort maybe every other day.. but when she's hungry she wants the bottle. now I don't know if I will catch up to my baby's needs because I have to go back to work. I'm sad about that fr. In the past week I may have produced 5-8 Oz for my girl. She's had more formula this past month than when I first brought her home. I miss the bonding experience of nursing. I really do..
Don't get into the guilt trip, it is fine. Please accept it and concentrate on your health too. As long as baby growth is good and active, it should be fine. While we over think about this, we might actually miss the joy of other things with our little one. 😊 I am also having low milk supply
@@shreedivya4763 I really appreciate this comment. she is a very healthy 10 month baby, she is expressive, she laughs, she literally runs after me. I'm changing my perspective now and cherishing every moment. ty
@@BBGshop7I'm glad you're better, I have had a similar situation. I always pumped but I miss nursing fr, very emotional and no one who hasn't gone through it seems to understand...Malta helped my supply alot. Also, you can always relactate if you desire but it takes a lot of effort and patience.
Great tips! Thank you for making this video...quick tip. Tablets cannot be absorbed by the body. The best supplements are in liquid form or powder form
I needed this video, because I had a newborn (16 days) and my milk supply is starting to be less than in the begging, because my baby needs more now. I’m going to try pumping.
At the beginning of your video i saw you mixing something and putting a tube in it, what is it and what’s the purpose ? kindly elaborate, thank you. will be waiting for your reply
i know it is important to get sleep, but that is not possible for me. How can someone nursing a newborn get enough sleep? I wake up every 2 to 3 hours to feed my baby.
FTM here my son is 3 weeks and 4 day I'm not producing enough milk from him so I'm desperate to get my milk to flow more ... I try lactation cookies, lactation candy , lactation bar, body armor drink, blue Gatorade, hand massage .... Now I'm trying milk booster massager, Fenugreek & blessed thistle, greater than drink, lactation cookies, lactation tea, and fruits with water.... i just hope my milk supply show some increase soon even though my son gain 3lbs since birth i feel bad he getting formula and he get 2 oz breast milk from me an day
Congratulations momma! The best way to get more milk is to empty your breasts as often as possible. You probably have way more milk than you think. Are you breastfeeding or exclusively pumping? I think this might help. th-cam.com/video/TJLNaxM9cOQ/w-d-xo.html 🤗💛
@@KarmaKennedy thanks you I'm pumping he not latching on ... I know you got pump about 8 time an day i probably pump about 4 times an day but i will try empty out my breasts as much i can Thanks for the video i very appreciated it
If I am unable to pump right after feeding baby is there a cut off for when I should pump? Sometimes pumping after feeds leaves me completely empty for him when he’s ready.
Fantastic question! Does baby cluster feed? Several times in a short period? During a growth spurt? Pumping after a feed teaches your body to create more milk, and you can use the milk you pump for your baby’s next feeding while your body catches up to the increased demand. Your body will respond quickly, since baby naturally cluster feeds as they grow. Good luck!🤗💛
I used fenugreek for my last pregnancy. And I was pumping every two hours to get an over supply to build a store when I went back to work. Pumping and taking fenugreek helped majorly. But not sure if it’s a downfall but I fenugreek can make you smell sweet like syrup. 😅
I had breast milk for about 10 days after delivery one day I did want to breastfeed Because my baby stomach was not full and then I was advised to my friend take mamicon syrup and mamicon capsule for 7-8 days I have started taking milk and the special thing is that it is ayurvedic I ordered it form Flipkart❤🎉😊
Thank you! Your video is very informative and straight to the point. I'm DBF my 18 days newborn baby and thinking to increase my milk supply. So I'm gonna try this consistently and will share if result is starting to show.

Hi very informative video..my baby is not latching well..but my nurse said to put him often ..I tried but ended up in failure..so can I pump often to increase my supply
I’m so happy you had the help of a nurse. Is there a lactation consultant or breastfeeding clinic near you where you can get one on one help? Pumping often can definitely help! Thank you so much for the awesome feedback.

I stared re-lactate and I follow your advice when I saw a dot of milk I was so happy but I didn’t pump for a week cuz I got sick and I been pumping and doing everything for 3 days and see nothing . I am so sad
Don’t give momma! I know how frustrating that can be. Try hand expressing to get going again. I have a video to show you how th-cam.com/video/3i988jFZYhE/w-d-xo.html Please come back and tell me how things are going! 🤗
@@KarmaKennedy hello so today I did hand expressing twice and my right boob dots of breast milk came out . Then I stared pumping but nothing came out . Do you might know why is that ?
I am losing my milk supply. Almost drying out. I’m devastated. I really want to keep nursing him. I breastfed my daughter for almost a year, but with my son now he is almost 6 month old and I am getting depressed because of it. I have had to buy the Bobbie formula to supplement to try to pump in between but I get 1 oz I need help!!
I’m sorry you’re struggling with your supply, I know that feeling and it’s awful. Try the fenugreek tablets and feeding tube method. Does baby still latch or has he started to show a lack of interest? How long have you been pumping?
Hand expressing works just fine. You don’t need to pump for an hour straight. Just try short 10 min hand expressing or manual pumping throughout your day. After each feed is best. It’s not about how much comes out, you just want to empty your breast so your body triggers more milk production. The feeding tube method will help your son want to nurse. You can get a free feeding tube at a breastfeeding clinic. Are there any in your area?
Skin to skin is absolutely a great technique! I used it all the time. The body knows what it needs to do and bonding always helps the body produce more.
Did already EVERYTHING that exists to try increase my supply and still don’t see changes. I’m afraid soon I’ll just need to get my baby boy into exclusively formula fed
Ive been killing myself to pump every two hours for weeks! Still making no more than 2oz per session, and that’s a good session. Sometimes I’ll make as little as 1Oz or less 😞 I’m power pumping, drinking water, breast milk supplements, eating spinach, fennel seeds tea all day, nothing works 😔
Ugh.. 2 weeks straight ive been consistently pumping at night, oating oats with flaxseeds, taking prenatals, drinking mothers milk tea, pumping every 3-4 hours even when away from home.. And STILL only producing 2 oz on the right & tiny amount on the left. Baby even went on strike she was so tired of this lol.. shes back to nursing a little but she still gets frustrated and needs supplementation.
Im trying so hard to make milk. My babys in NICU and the drs are stressing me to pump. I havent been able to get even a drop after 3 days and i feel so guilty.
I breast fed my baby until he was 11 months and then stopped for (few days which is now )and now I regret stopping and want to go back to nursing .. don’t know what to do
Hi Noriah! It’s definitely possible to jumpstart your milk production after you stop breastfeeding. It may not happen overnight but it is definitely worth the effort. Try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements along with pumping and the other tips. It may take some time but don’t give up! 🤗💛
Hi Sarah! I love using vanilla flavoured Greek yogurt with spinach, berries, and soaked chia seeds (soak a tbsp of chia seeds in a half cup of milk over night). Let me know how you like it! 😁💛
I have a 2 months old, i was supplementing with formular which my baby is rejecting now, my milk supply is good rn but i want to increase it so i can pump enough for when i get back to work. Thanks
Hello my baby is 6 weeks old & due to clogging /pain issues l decided to exclusively pump planning on nursing once those issues got resolved . I’m better now but we’ve started formula (mixing with breastmilk in the beginning) and I’ve been sick twice since I’ve been home from the hospital😞 I’ve been pumping when consistent every 2-3 hrs yielding maybe 2 oz total each time . can l still build my supply & possibly start breastfeeding even though l haven’t had a let down in 2 weeks ? Help!!!
Absolutely Kaila! You can definitely start lactating again, but you’ll need to be consistent with deep latching baby and nursing as often as possible. Try the feeding tube technique with formula so baby still gets what they need, and try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements to jump start your milk. Remember to keep taking your prenatal vitamins as well. This will also be a big help to start breastfeeding without any pain th-cam.com/video/vDLV4mHPZjc/w-d-xo.html 💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou for you speedy response 😊 I’ve purchased fenugreek pills, mothers milk tea & 3 bags of blessed thistle loose leaf tea that l have looked high and low on google and TH-cam for a recipe to no avail 😔 any recommendations for how to prepare blessed thistle loose leaf tea ?
@@gloriouspurposee that’s awesome! I’ve never tried blessed thistle loose leaf tea, but like most other loose leaf teas you can use a tea holder to make one cup at a time or if you steep a large batch you can turn it into iced tea and keep it in your fridge so you can drink it as often as you want. You could try adding lemon / lime and honey to add some flavour once your tea has been chilled. 😁💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou! I have a tea strainer but chile the tea is BITTER 😣 l tried honey, lemon & sugar in the last batch and could barely stomach it perhaps adding milk will do the trick💡 any idea how many cups a day l should be drinking ?
😂🤣 I know what you mean, that’s why I prefer the capsules. Try to sweeten with Stevia, as much as you can stand. The sweet will cut the bitter taste. How much lemon did you add? I would start slow with any new herbal remedy. Start with one cup a day for a few days and then add another cup per day. Increase it slowly until you start to see results. You don’t want to overdo it though so maybe no more than two cups a day. It also depends on how concentrated you make the tea. 🤗💛

Thaaank you for these golden steps, i had CS and my baby is just 3 months and I feel that my milk is just decreased too much 💔 and I started to give formula many times during the day.. dear, my question is, how many minutes i have to pump aftee feeding my baby? And do I have to pump even if my baby sleeping?
Great question! It’s not about how LONG you pump, it’s more about how OFTEN you pump. You want to trick your body into thinking baby is cluster feeding and going through a growth spurt. Pump until your let down starts, when that happens you can stop after 2-3 minutes if you like, or you can go until you feel like no more milk is coming out. The more formula you give the less baby is drinking from you. This is partially why you may feel your milk is low. Try the feeding tube method with your formula and see if that helps. Good Luck Bassma!
Congrats momma! It’s the first week and you’re mostly producing colostrum. It’s a good habit to get into pumping anyways. You should start to see more milk within a few days. Fenugreek will also help your milk flow. I have a link in the description bar that should help. You got this! 💛
Great question! This tip is for moms whose milk may not have come in yet, or are In the beginning of their breast feeding journey. This technique is the best of both worlds! While baby is nursing they get whatever golden goodness mom has to offer and at the same time they suck in formula through the feeding tube so they feel full and nourished. The reason for the feeding tube is to give baby enough food while still creating a demand for the body to produce milk. The more baby nurses the harder the body works to make more. If baby is bottle fed, it’s a missed opportunity to create more demand. I hope this helps!😁💛
My baby is now 4 months old. It’s been a struggle for me to produce enough milk so I have been feeding him formula ☹️ Hopefully it’s not too late and I can try some of your tips.
Ok after the first 40 days where everyone (mother and baby) is still adjusting, the milk production is exactly what the baby needs. Why hacking the body in making more? For storage? Ok I understand, but the baby won't take more milk than she's supposed to..
Great question! These tips are for moms who are struggling to get going during the first few days, weeks, or even months of their breastfeeding journey. They’re also helpful for moms who may have stopped trying to breastfeed because they were discouraged or frustrated, and want to try again. Every mom has their own reason for wanting to boost their supply. I just hope these tips will help everyone no matter what their situation is. Thanks for your question Taide! 💛
Not everyone is producing as much as the baby requires. I’m not breastfeeding due to baby latching issues and I have been struggling to get my supply up. My baby is now 3months old and I am still not getting enough for her daily feed from expressing.
@@dammytanny8800 hi dammy! How do you know you are not getting enough? Is your baby giving you hunger cues? I am asking because I know first hand that many pediatricians want mother to supplement with formula because according to them you are not producing enough milk. And they think so because according to their charts the baby is not growing how she's supposed to.. I know of many mothers that are made to feel inadequate because of this when the obly issue are the growth charts
@@taide123 I have observed how many mls my baby consumes per day from combi feeding. I am however unable to express that much per day (I can barely express 150mls from both breast altogether after an hour of pumping) This isn’t even about the growth charts. Do you understand my explanation?
I’m 3 days postpartum and was breastfeeding my baby. I would nurse for hours and he would still be hungry afterwards. I started supplementing and decided to pump to see how much I was making. I’m only pumping 1oz of colostrum :( is this normal?
Great question! In the first few days your body is making colostrum and it’s a lot thicker than milk. Your pump probably won’t get a lot out. Your milk will start coming in over the next few days. You’re doing a great job by allowing baby to nurse often. Keep it up! It’s helping your milk to come in! Don’t worry about how much milk comes out when you pump. Babies are better at removing milk then breast pumps. Keep nursing baby as often as possible and pumping after each feed, it will definitely help your milk supply. Does baby have a good latch? Are you sore afterwards?
Thank you for responding!! Yes, he has a good latch but as soon as he latches on, he falls asleep and it’s a struggle to get him to wake up and nurse. I’m afraid that if I keep giving him the bottle, he won’t want to drink from my breast anymore or he’ll have nipple confusion.
No worries! So could be a couple things. When you latch him is he TIRED or hungry? My babies loved to nurse themselves to sleep. Try looking for hunger cues like rooting (head banging on your chest) or sucking his closed fist. Does he open real wide just before you latch? Is he already sleepy before he latched? You can also change your position so he’s not interested in sleeping. If he’s too comfortable he’s gonna fall asleep every time. You could do skin to skin, keeping him in just a diaper, or change your hold. If he likes cradle hold, try football hold. What’s his feeding routine?
1 oz is super good! I was only pumping 5ml first few days of discharge.. your body is amazing and knows exactly how to feed your baby. Your milk supply will increase gradually as baby’s appetite increase correspondingly. Don’t worry too much about it. Just supplement for the first few days if you think you don’t have enough. Fed is best. Don’t need to feel guilty for providing formula.
I am 4 days postpartum and I can't even produce a half of 1oz my baby also to always go to sleep on the breast within 5 minutes I'm worried too. How have things been going for you now?
Mam...I am from India....pls help me...I am a working mother...my mother is my baby with feeding bottle...she is not laching me now....I am not able to give her breast milk...she is having nipple confusion.....i am disappointed and depressed.....my milk supply also reduced...pls help me with advice 🙏🙏🙏
I am an Indian new mother to a 2month old.due to some heath issues i couldn't feed my baby for a month n now he refuses to breastfeed n my breast milk is dried up.am producing only droplets.can u help me/guide me to relactate?
How can I use that tube thing if my baby doesn’t want my breast I have tried everything to put him on my Breast but ended up with formula and I hardly get time for pumping cuz whenever I pump I get only 40 or 60 ml.
I know it can be hard to juggle all these things when you’re exhausted and looking after a new baby. If baby doesn’t want to latch you can try encouraging him with taste. Maybe hand express some milk into baby’s mouth to motivate them to want to latch. You’ll need to try hand expressing several times a day to encourage baby to the breast. I have a video on hand expressing if you need any more help. 💛
Hey mom please please please reply me for what you eat and not eat for increase breast milk.. I gave birth last month my breast milk is not enough for my baby …
First you latch baby deeply on the breast. Then you slowly insert the feeding tube into their mouth without breaking their latch. If baby continues to nurse and the formula moves up the feeding tube, you’ve done it correctly. The feeding tube acts like a big straw, but because it’s so thin, baby only gets a little bit of formula as they nurse. This way baby doesn’t get nipple confusion (breast vs. bottle) and they are also nursing which teaches your body to make more milk. The more baby nurses the more your body will create. In the meantime, baby isn’t left hungry since they are also drinking the formula through the tube. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions! 💛
I am a new mom i just had my baby on july 4 today i was trying to pump for first time to see how much milk i am making because i feel like my baby is not getting enough milk i breastfeed . I pump today and it bearly coming out to 1 :/ i am worried now
Hi Rocio! Congrats on your new baby! I totally understand your worry. First things first, count how many soiled diapers your baby is making over a 24 hour period. At this age, it should be at least 5-6 diapers (pee and poop combined). If baby is gaining weight, seems happy and energetic, and is soiling enough diapers, your milk supply is just fine. Breast pumps are good at removing milk from the breast but babies are EXPERTS. The pump removes only a fraction of what baby is capable of so please don’t worry about how much comes out. As your body gets used to pumping, you’ll see more milk over time. Don’t give up! The other thing to check is baby’s latch. Is baby latching on just the nipple or does baby have a good mouthful of boob? Hope this helps! 💛
I watched this video 2 years ago while struggling to nurse my first baby. Well I successfully nursed him for 15 months and now I'm 3 months in nursing my second baby!!

I struggled with feeding because the nurses didn’t give me any information about how to feed with a flat and inverted nipple.They used the basic knowledge on me ,pinched(and tore my nipples to the point I bleed)expecting my body to react the same as someone with normal nipples.I had to work on pulling my nipples out,forcing my baby to nurse,and then work on my supply too(since the poor latching decreased my amount).Power pumping is what did it for me!Increased my supply to the point I don’t need formula anymore and baby gets full(still need to work on producing enough to create a stash).Also the whole calories thing?I’d call it bs,I gained 2kg the first week of pp yet my milk supply was still very low BUT eating a protein and vegetables/fruit rich diet helps the quality of your milk(makes it fatter therefore keeping baby full longer).So try to sleep,nurse baby as much as possible,power pump at least 1h a day and eat healthy!
I wish someone would have told me about the feeding tube.. I would have never had to pause breastfeeding full time. I'm heartbroken about it but I got an electric pump to help.. I went from dripping to not even feeling a let down. It's very emotional for me rn.. because at first I had an abundance and my baby use to fall asleep feeding then it went to frustration while feeding then I gave her formula to supplement so she could be getting enough.. then frustration when offered the breast. She may latch for comfort maybe every other day.. but when she's hungry she wants the bottle. now I don't know if I will catch up to my baby's needs because I have to go back to work. I'm sad about that fr. In the past week I may have produced 5-8 Oz for my girl. She's had more formula this past month than when I first brought her home. I miss the bonding experience of nursing. I really do..
This is happening to me 😭
Don't get into the guilt trip, it is fine. Please accept it and concentrate on your health too. As long as baby growth is good and active, it should be fine. While we over think about this, we might actually miss the joy of other things with our little one. 😊 I am also having low milk supply
@@shreedivya4763 I really appreciate this comment. she is a very healthy 10 month baby, she is expressive, she laughs, she literally runs after me. I'm changing my perspective now and cherishing every moment. ty
@@BBGshop7I'm glad you're better, I have had a similar situation. I always pumped but I miss nursing fr, very emotional and no one who hasn't gone through it seems to understand...Malta helped my supply alot. Also, you can always relactate if you desire but it takes a lot of effort and patience.
The feeding tube idea? Omg genius
Omg this was straight to the point and very helpful. Thank u mama
Thank you so much! So glad I could help 🤗
Quick and to the point thanks. Do you pump right after nursing baby or wait a while? I’m always afraid I won’t have enough for baby next feed
Right after feeding baby let say wait for 10min and start
Great tips! Thank you for making this video...quick tip. Tablets cannot be absorbed by the body. The best supplements are in liquid form or powder form
I did everything and still got no milk 😢
I needed this video, because I had a newborn (16 days) and my milk supply is starting to be less than in the begging, because my baby needs more now. I’m going to try pumping.
Which of her tips worked for you?
Pumping and eating more. Also taking Pregnacare Breastfeeding multivitamin helped too.
Amazing Vide0. Eveything in such a precise way! Great work! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your feedback 😊💛
Thank you soo much for this video! I am taking all these steps to ensure my milk supply doesn't decrease
Hey Ashley! You’re so very welcome! Glad I could help.💛
I’m going to have my baby at the end of this year and I really want to breastfeed and this video is very helpful thank you so much 😊
Awww, congrats mama! A safe and happy delivery to you and yours! I’m so glad you found this useful. 🤗💛
Thankyou. This video helped a new born mum so much ❤
That makes me so very happy. So glad I could help.
At the beginning of your video i saw you mixing something and putting a tube in it, what is it and what’s the purpose ? kindly elaborate, thank you. will be waiting for your reply
i know it is important to get sleep, but that is not possible for me. How can someone nursing a newborn get enough sleep? I wake up every 2 to 3 hours to feed my baby.
FTM here my son is 3 weeks and 4 day I'm not producing enough milk from him so I'm desperate to get my milk to flow more ... I try lactation cookies, lactation candy , lactation bar, body armor drink, blue Gatorade, hand massage .... Now I'm trying milk booster massager, Fenugreek & blessed thistle, greater than drink, lactation cookies, lactation tea, and fruits with water.... i just hope my milk supply show some increase soon even though my son gain 3lbs since birth i feel bad he getting formula and he get 2 oz breast milk from me an day
Congratulations momma! The best way to get more milk is to empty your breasts as often as possible. You probably have way more milk than you think. Are you breastfeeding or exclusively pumping? I think this might help. th-cam.com/video/TJLNaxM9cOQ/w-d-xo.html 🤗💛
@@KarmaKennedy thanks you I'm pumping he not latching on ... I know you got pump about 8 time an day i probably pump about 4 times an day but i will try empty out my breasts as much i can
Thanks for the video i very appreciated it

Thank you so much Fiona! Welcome to the fam 😁💛
Did you use two pumps or one pump? And is madela good enough?
Your voice is soothing thanks for the tips
Very professional video in my opinion. Clear video, sound, informative, and to the point. Thanks
Oh wow! I really appreciate the fantastic feedback, thank you so much! 😊💛
If I am unable to pump right after feeding baby is there a cut off for when I should pump? Sometimes pumping after feeds leaves me completely empty for him when he’s ready.
Good question. Relatable
Fantastic question! Does baby cluster feed? Several times in a short period? During a growth spurt?
Pumping after a feed teaches your body to create more milk, and you can use the milk you pump for your baby’s next feeding while your body catches up to the increased demand. Your body will respond quickly, since baby naturally cluster feeds as they grow. Good luck!🤗💛
I used fenugreek for my last pregnancy. And I was pumping every two hours to get an over supply to build a store when I went back to work.
Pumping and taking fenugreek helped majorly. But not sure if it’s a downfall but I fenugreek can make you smell sweet like syrup. 😅
I had breast milk for about 10 days after delivery one day I did want to breastfeed Because my baby stomach was not full and then I was advised to my friend take mamicon syrup and mamicon capsule for 7-8 days I have started taking milk and the special thing is that it is ayurvedic I ordered it form Flipkart❤🎉😊
Thank you! Your video is very informative and straight to the point. I'm DBF my 18 days newborn baby and thinking to increase my milk supply. So I'm gonna try this consistently and will share if result is starting to show.

Awww, congrats! So glad I could help mama! 😊💛
Hi very informative video..my baby is not latching well..but my nurse said to put him often ..I tried but ended up in failure..so can I pump often to increase my supply
I’m so happy you had the help of a nurse. Is there a lactation consultant or breastfeeding clinic near you where you can get one on one help? Pumping often can definitely help! Thank you so much for the awesome feedback.
I love when videos are informative and straight to the point. Thankbyouu
Thanks Edith! I appreciate the awesome feedback. 😊💛
I'm only able to pump 3 oz per hour 😔... I'll try your tips and hopefully works!

I'm 10 days post partum and desperate because my milk supply is low 💔
I know the feeling Ashlyn! It happened with both my babies. Get the fenugreek pills and try the feeding tube method, you’ll have milk in NO time. Hope this can help th-cam.com/video/TJLNaxM9cOQ/w-d-xo.html 🤗💛

@@KarmaKennedy hello so today I did hand expressing twice and my right boob dots of breast milk came out . Then I stared pumping but nothing came out . Do you might know why is that ?
ALSO i add fresh onions to my meals. Helps !

Thank you for this,I need to start eating oats,I really don't like it, but anything for my baby
I know the feeling! Oats are not my favourite but overnight oats are pretty good! 😁
@@KarmaKennedy I just had oats for the first time in my life,it wasn't that bad 😒
Haha! 😂 That’s awesome! How did you prepare them?🤔
What kind of feeding tube did you get
I am losing my milk supply. Almost drying out. I’m devastated. I really want to keep nursing him. I breastfed my daughter for almost a year, but with my son now he is almost 6 month old and I am getting depressed because of it. I have had to buy the Bobbie formula to supplement to try to pump in between but I get 1 oz I need help!!
I’m sorry you’re struggling with your supply, I know that feeling and it’s awful. Try the fenugreek tablets and feeding tube method. Does baby still latch or has he started to show a lack of interest? How long have you been pumping?
Hand expressing works just fine. You don’t need to pump for an hour straight. Just try short 10 min hand expressing or manual pumping throughout your day. After each feed is best. It’s not about how much comes out, you just want to empty your breast so your body triggers more milk production. The feeding tube method will help your son want to nurse. You can get a free feeding tube at a breastfeeding clinic. Are there any in your area?
Really well done video. Thanks!
So no skin to skin, just pump immediately after? Is that what you do?
Skin to skin is absolutely a great technique! I used it all the time. The body knows what it needs to do and bonding always helps the body produce more.
Did already EVERYTHING that exists to try increase my supply and still don’t see changes. I’m afraid soon I’ll just need to get my baby boy into exclusively formula fed
Thank you so much for all these tips and help.
No worries Stephanie! So glad I could help. 😊💛
Ive been killing myself to pump every two hours for weeks! Still making no more than 2oz per session, and that’s a good session. Sometimes I’ll make as little as 1Oz or less 😞
I’m power pumping, drinking water, breast milk supplements, eating spinach, fennel seeds tea all day, nothing works 😔
Any update? Keep trying!
I feel bad for you
Ugh.. 2 weeks straight ive been consistently pumping at night, oating oats with flaxseeds, taking prenatals, drinking mothers milk tea, pumping every 3-4 hours even when away from home.. And STILL only producing 2 oz on the right & tiny amount on the left. Baby even went on strike she was so tired of this lol.. shes back to nursing a little but she still gets frustrated and needs supplementation.
Oh and I've been nursing since birth and she's 3mo now.
Love this! Thank you!
So using a feeding tube constitutes nursing? I don’t understand 😩
Thanks for the helpful information provided
Im trying so hard to make milk. My babys in NICU and the drs are stressing me to pump. I havent been able to get even a drop after 3 days and i feel so guilty.
I breast fed my baby until he was 11 months and then stopped for (few days which is now )and now I regret stopping and want to go back to nursing .. don’t know what to do
Hi Noriah! It’s definitely possible to jumpstart your milk production after you stop breastfeeding. It may not happen overnight but it is definitely worth the effort. Try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements along with pumping and the other tips. It may take some time but don’t give up! 🤗💛
Good information!
Hello what’s the recipe for your smoothie lactation? I’m trying to get my supply back
Hi Sarah! I love using vanilla flavoured Greek yogurt with spinach, berries, and soaked chia seeds (soak a tbsp of chia seeds in a half cup of milk over night). Let me know how you like it! 😁💛
I have a 2 months old, i was supplementing with formular which my baby is rejecting now, my milk supply is good rn but i want to increase it so i can pump enough for when i get back to work. Thanks
Hello my baby is 6 weeks old & due to clogging /pain issues l decided to exclusively pump planning on nursing once those issues got resolved . I’m better now but we’ve started formula (mixing with breastmilk in the beginning) and I’ve been sick twice since I’ve been home from the hospital😞 I’ve been pumping when consistent every 2-3 hrs yielding maybe 2 oz total each time . can l still build my supply & possibly start breastfeeding even though l haven’t had a let down in 2 weeks ? Help!!!
Absolutely Kaila! You can definitely start lactating again, but you’ll need to be consistent with deep latching baby and nursing as often as possible. Try the feeding tube technique with formula so baby still gets what they need, and try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements to jump start your milk. Remember to keep taking your prenatal vitamins as well. This will also be a big help to start breastfeeding without any pain th-cam.com/video/vDLV4mHPZjc/w-d-xo.html 💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou for you speedy response 😊 I’ve purchased fenugreek pills, mothers milk tea & 3 bags of blessed thistle loose leaf tea that l have looked high and low on google and TH-cam for a recipe to no avail 😔 any recommendations for how to prepare blessed thistle loose leaf tea ?
@@gloriouspurposee that’s awesome! I’ve never tried blessed thistle loose leaf tea, but like most other loose leaf teas you can use a tea holder to make one cup at a time or if you steep a large batch you can turn it into iced tea and keep it in your fridge so you can drink it as often as you want. You could try adding lemon / lime and honey to add some flavour once your tea has been chilled. 😁💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou! I have a tea strainer but chile the tea is BITTER 😣 l tried honey, lemon & sugar in the last batch and could barely stomach it perhaps adding milk will do the trick💡 any idea how many cups a day l should be drinking ?
😂🤣 I know what you mean, that’s why I prefer the capsules. Try to sweeten with Stevia, as much as you can stand. The sweet will cut the bitter taste. How much lemon did you add? I would start slow with any new herbal remedy. Start with one cup a day for a few days and then add another cup per day. Increase it slowly until you start to see results. You don’t want to overdo it though so maybe no more than two cups a day. It also depends on how concentrated you make the tea. 🤗💛
I didn’t understand the feeding tube part
Can someone elaborate
I had breast milk for about 10 days after delivery one day I did want to breastfeed Because my baby stomach was not full and then I was advised to my friend take mamicon syrup and mamicon capsule for 7-8 days I have started taking milk and the special thing is that it is ayurvedic I ordered it form Flipkart$+$7$8++😊
Thaaank you for these golden steps, i had CS and my baby is just 3 months and I feel that my milk is just decreased too much 💔 and I started to give formula many times during the day.. dear, my question is, how many minutes i have to pump aftee feeding my baby? And do I have to pump even if my baby sleeping?
I think you should pump when baby is sleeping
Great question! It’s not about how LONG you pump, it’s more about how OFTEN you pump. You want to trick your body into thinking baby is cluster feeding and going through a growth spurt. Pump until your let down starts, when that happens you can stop after 2-3 minutes if you like, or you can go until you feel like no more milk is coming out.
The more formula you give the less baby is drinking from you. This is partially why you may feel your milk is low. Try the feeding tube method with your formula and see if that helps. Good Luck Bassma!
Same problem I have with my new born
Great video! Thanks ❤️
Thank you so much 😊 💛
You’re an angel did you know that? Thank you so much!!!
Aww, thank you so much!!!
I’m so ready to give up on this. I’ve accomplished much, but I can’t do this one.
Don’t give up love. Keep trying
Please don't give up hope. I know it's hard and sometimes feels impossible, but you CAN do this.
Just brought my baby home today struggling to pump 🥺🥺
Congrats momma! It’s the first week and you’re mostly producing colostrum. It’s a good habit to get into pumping anyways. You should start to see more milk within a few days. Fenugreek will also help your milk flow. I have a link in the description bar that should help. You got this! 💛
Hi dear
I am also same like you.
This was great, tysm🙏🏼❤
Why feed with a feeding tube?? What's happens with the body? Since the feedingtube is being fed with formula? I don't understand
Great question! This tip is for moms whose milk may not have come in yet, or are In the beginning of their breast feeding journey.
This technique is the best of both worlds! While baby is nursing they get whatever golden goodness mom has to offer and at the same time they suck in formula through the feeding tube so they feel full and nourished.
The reason for the feeding tube is to give baby enough food while still creating a demand for the body to produce milk. The more baby nurses the harder the body works to make more. If baby is bottle fed, it’s a missed opportunity to create more demand.
I hope this helps!😁💛
My baby is now 4 months old. It’s been a struggle for me to produce enough milk so I have been feeding him formula ☹️ Hopefully it’s not too late and I can try some of your tips.
@@Caram3l_Bombsh3ll hello.. Were you able to successfully breastfeed after this
@@suganyapanneerselvam6616 Unfortunately no. But there were other factors that contributed to the lack of production for me.
@@Caram3l_Bombsh3llhey! I had the same low supply issue! I formula feed my baby. Hope your baby is doing great!!
Ok after the first 40 days where everyone (mother and baby) is still adjusting, the milk production is exactly what the baby needs. Why hacking the body in making more? For storage? Ok I understand, but the baby won't take more milk than she's supposed to..
Great question! These tips are for moms who are struggling to get going during the first few days, weeks, or even months of their breastfeeding journey. They’re also helpful for moms who may have stopped trying to breastfeed because they were discouraged or frustrated, and want to try again. Every mom has their own reason for wanting to boost their supply. I just hope these tips will help everyone no matter what their situation is. Thanks for your question Taide! 💛
Not everyone is producing as much as the baby requires. I’m not breastfeeding due to baby latching issues and I have been struggling to get my supply up. My baby is now 3months old and I am still not getting enough for her daily feed from expressing.
@@dammytanny8800 hi dammy! How do you know you are not getting enough? Is your baby giving you hunger cues? I am asking because I know first hand that many pediatricians want mother to supplement with formula because according to them you are not producing enough milk. And they think so because according to their charts the baby is not growing how she's supposed to.. I know of many mothers that are made to feel inadequate because of this when the obly issue are the growth charts
@@KarmaKennedy thanks for your reply! It makes sense 💜
@@taide123 I have observed how many mls my baby consumes per day from combi feeding. I am however unable to express that much per day (I can barely express 150mls from both breast altogether after an hour of pumping) This isn’t even about the growth charts. Do you understand my explanation?
I’m 3 days postpartum and was breastfeeding my baby. I would nurse for hours and he would still be hungry afterwards. I started supplementing and decided to pump to see how much I was making. I’m only pumping 1oz of colostrum :( is this normal?
Great question! In the first few days your body is making colostrum and it’s a lot thicker than milk. Your pump probably won’t get a lot out. Your milk will start coming in over the next few days. You’re doing a great job by allowing baby to nurse often. Keep it up! It’s helping your milk to come in!
Don’t worry about how much milk comes out when you pump. Babies are better at removing milk then breast pumps. Keep nursing baby as often as possible and pumping after each feed, it will definitely help your milk supply.
Does baby have a good latch? Are you sore afterwards?
Thank you for responding!! Yes, he has a good latch but as soon as he latches on, he falls asleep and it’s a struggle to get him to wake up and nurse. I’m afraid that if I keep giving him the bottle, he won’t want to drink from my breast anymore or he’ll have nipple confusion.
No worries! So could be a couple things. When you latch him is he TIRED or hungry? My babies loved to nurse themselves to sleep.
Try looking for hunger cues like rooting (head banging on your chest) or sucking his closed fist. Does he open real wide just before you latch? Is he already sleepy before he latched?
You can also change your position so he’s not interested in sleeping. If he’s too comfortable he’s gonna fall asleep every time. You could do skin to skin, keeping him in just a diaper, or change your hold. If he likes cradle hold, try football hold.
What’s his feeding routine?
1 oz is super good! I was only pumping 5ml first few days of discharge.. your body is amazing and knows exactly how to feed your baby. Your milk supply will increase gradually as baby’s appetite increase correspondingly. Don’t worry too much about it. Just supplement for the first few days if you think you don’t have enough. Fed is best. Don’t need to feel guilty for providing formula.
I am 4 days postpartum and I can't even produce a half of 1oz my baby also to always go to sleep on the breast within 5 minutes I'm worried too. How have things been going for you now?
Hi mama..my baby is about to be 3 months old..Will these techniques boost milk supply in few days.?

How can I use that tube thing if my baby doesn’t want my breast I have tried everything to put him on my Breast but ended up with formula and I hardly get time for pumping cuz whenever I pump I get only 40 or 60 ml.
I know it can be hard to juggle all these things when you’re exhausted and looking after a new baby. If baby doesn’t want to latch you can try encouraging him with taste. Maybe hand express some milk into baby’s mouth to motivate them to want to latch. You’ll need to try hand expressing several times a day to encourage baby to the breast. I have a video on hand expressing if you need any more help. 💛
You're awesome for this. Thank you. Sending so much love.
Amazing content
Hey mom please please please reply me for what you eat and not eat for increase breast milk.. I gave birth last month my breast milk is not enough for my baby …
If breastmilk suddenly reduced can it be increase after 3 months??
How your milk is white white? Mine is always creamy color
Where can I get the feeding tube?
Loved this!!
Really!?! Thank you Kristina! I’ve been trying something new. I’m so glad you enjoyed it! You made my day.🤗💛
Help my 3 week old will not latch at all I’m pumping every 3 hrs 1 ounce only.
Can you explain what you did with the feeding tube?
First you latch baby deeply on the breast. Then you slowly insert the feeding tube into their mouth without breaking their latch. If baby continues to nurse and the formula moves up the feeding tube, you’ve done it correctly.
The feeding tube acts like a big straw, but because it’s so thin, baby only gets a little bit of formula as they nurse. This way baby doesn’t get nipple confusion (breast vs. bottle) and they are also nursing which teaches your body to make more milk. The more baby nurses the more your body will create. In the meantime, baby isn’t left hungry since they are also drinking the formula through the tube.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions! 💛
@@KarmaKennedy i needed this explanation because I was so confused. 😄
@@LaGoKenyane I’m so glad it helped!😁💛
Can you share the link to this feeding tube? Or the brand? I can’t seem to find it online
You can also do this with pumped breast milk! I did this when my baby was having trouble with her latch.
I am a new mom i just had my baby on july 4 today i was trying to pump for first time to see how much milk i am making because i feel like my baby is not getting enough milk i breastfeed . I pump today and it bearly coming out to 1 :/ i am worried now
Hi Rocio! Congrats on your new baby! I totally understand your worry.
First things first, count how many soiled diapers your baby is making over a 24 hour period. At this age, it should be at least 5-6 diapers (pee and poop combined). If baby is gaining weight, seems happy and energetic, and is soiling enough diapers, your milk supply is just fine.
Breast pumps are good at removing milk from the breast but babies are EXPERTS. The pump removes only a fraction of what baby is capable of so please don’t worry about how much comes out. As your body gets used to pumping, you’ll see more milk over time. Don’t give up!
The other thing to check is baby’s latch. Is baby latching on just the nipple or does baby have a good mouthful of boob?
Hope this helps! 💛
