Are you breastfeeding and struggling with low milk supply?

Hi Jessica! Thank you for your question! For mums who exclusively pump, here are my recommendations: - Ensure that milk is regularly removed from the breasts according to a baby's nursing interval i.e. pumping every 2-3 hours just like how a newborn will nurse, to build the milk supply. - Kickstart the process right after birth of removing colostrum through hand expression to get the milk production going - Breast massages before pumping are helpful - Hand compressions can help to increase milk flow - Check that you have the right pump parts - Drink plenty of water, take a healthy diet and rest aplenty to keep your milk supply up! The foundational strategy remains as always - more milk removed from breasts, more milk produced. To increase and maintain milk supply, you'd have to work on removing the milk first. Hope this helps!
