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?

for sm mummies it will take a bit more time for milk to kick in. what u can do now is continue to latch on demand. bb's suckling will help to send msg 2 ur body to make more milk. meanwhile if ur bb still appears hungry after latchin u can top up wif a bit of fm to tide him/her through. for me, i had to top up about 10 to 15ml of fm once every 24hrs - always in e middle of e nite. i did dis for about 2 to 3 nites. then milk came in for good and i stopped giving fm alrdy. wad i did was to latch on demand. den day time i will pump for 10mins every 2 to 3 hrs. nite time i will pump for 10mins every 3 to 4hrs. did dis for 2 to 3 nites and that was the end of pumping. do drink plenty of water. stay calm n latch on. u will do fine mummy! jiayou!!!
