Is my bm too watery? And how to increase bm fats?

Is my bm too watery? I pump whatever that flows. Struggling with low supply at 4 mths pp. How do I increase the fats in my bm naturally? Pls do not suggest Legendairy Milk supplements or salmon. I'm a housewife and I don't have an income and I don't eat salmon.

Tbh by 4 months your milk supply has already accustom to baby’s need! What you pump is different from when baby latch! Most people don’t know but breast milk supply will slowly change to just how much your baby need! Dont be too worried! It’s really fine!!!! I was a cow for 3 months and slowly milk supply go down to just what my baby needs! I dont take any supplements! If you’re worried just eat 3 meals and drink lots of water!!

I like this article. so informative

Is there any major stress factor in your life now? I noticed my supply went up when I left a stressful environment. Stress caused milk to be so called stuck in the body.

Not that I can think of but I do have other kids all grown up. Probably the housechores and exhaustion of taking care of a baby. My other kids does help around with the chores and taking care of their baby brother but I still feel that my body is tired even when I nap in the afternoon.

My lactation masseus says to cook fish soup with fish bone, and add kailan inside after the soup is done. The soup should be cooked until it turns white.
