home remedy or natural way to increase breast milk

I delivered a baby girl last week, but am unable to produce enough milk, but I don't want to give her formula just yet? Is there any home remedy or natural way to increase breast milk?

Drink a lot of soup and milo. Latch as much as you can. I didn't have enough milk until the 4th day. And after that everything went smoothly.

Hi.. first you can drink lots of water. I noticed when I had soup during my confinement period, my breasts keep engorged. and have fish. :)

Are you able to latch her? If you wish to breastfeed her exclusively, consider seeking the help of a lactation consultant.

feunugeek supplement works for me. and drink more soup, water, milk...etc

Try massaging or take lactation cookies or even fenugreek supplement. :)

the best way is to keep latching. If not you can pump every 3hrly.

u can try to pump. i did that and had oversupply in the end. hehe

Unlilatch and eat nutritious food and drink more water.

keep getting her to suckle and pump. stimulation. ...

How do you know you don't have enough milk?
