When does breastmilk come?

I have given birth to my baby 16 days ago and still my breastmilk is very little. Every time is 20-30ml max when I express out/breastfeed. I also take fenugreek prescribed by KKH too. Anyone can advice when does breastmilk will come in a lot?

Keep latching, the more baby latch, the more you will produce more milk. Try milk ginseng(奶参) from Lao Ban Niang. Tasteless, just add few into any soup to boil. I had them coz it comes with my confinement package. Drink more water and soup too eg papaya soup

Latch every 2 hours. If your baby only need one side, pump the other side. Its a supply & demand thing. Pumping out send signals to your body to produce more milk. And drink plenty of water. During confinement its ok to drink warm water.

U need to rest more, drink more fluid and hve a good diet. Pump regularly and dont be so concern abt the amount pumped. Your body will produces more milk if you hve done the above consistently.
