Any idea how to boost my breast milk yield. My 7 week old baby drinks 4oz per feed and sadly I only produce one third of what she is drinking now. Tried all the possible milk boosters. Considering power pumping. I heard that power pumping is effective in increasing yield. May I know once yield has increased, should I stop power pumping altogether?

You can try this method to power pump, find an hour in the day that you can pump uninterrupted.Within that hour, use this pumping pattern: Pump for 20 minutes, rest for 10 minutes Pump for 10 minutes, rest for 10 minutes Pump for 10 minutes. Throughout the rest of the day, pump the normal length of time when you would typically pump, eg. Every 3hours You only need to power pump for 2-3 days before you see a result. Then you can return to your normal pumping routine until you feel like it needs another little kick start.
