Milk Supply

Will my milk supply increase as baby grows up? Everytime i feed my baby, i am only able to collect 30ml of milk on the other side using the haakaa.

Yes. Your breasts will produce milk according to your baby but your baby has to suck to send signals to your body. I didn’t have enough milk before 5 weeks and had to top up with formula. Then at 5 weeks I had enough milk that my baby was full so stopped formula.

If you pump then 90-100ml is enough for your baby per feeding. I was pumping around 70-80ml and topping up with formula until week 5 then I switched to full latching. You’ll never be able to measure, that’s why they say for breastfeeding babies, do as per demand. Then after a few days, milk supply will regulate. Baby will pull out nipple when full or fall asleep.
