breastfeeding

hi, first time mum here— just brought home my newborn today and ive been struggling with breastfeeding to the point where i felt super guilty about not being able to feed my baby enough milk. i dont really know how to soothe my baby whenever he cries after realising im not producing enough milk and i feel pathetic not being able to breastfeed him like i want to. #pleasehelp #firsttimemom #FTM #firstmom #baby

It will increase overtime as long as you don’t drag or missed pump sessions. 😊
