Breastmilk and formula

Hi Mommy, i just given birth 2 weeks ago to a babyboy. He eats alot around 90-100ml per feed but my breastmilk is low. Each session I only managed to get around 40ml both boobs combined. I need to give him formula most times. How much does your newborn eats and what can I do to increase ny milk supply. I pump every 3 hours since my baby wats every 3 hours. I don't latch but use bottle feeding instead. #pleasehelp #advicepls #1stimemom #firstbaby #firstmom

Every baby is different, my baby only drinks 40-70ml per feed and even at 7mo still drinking 100ml 😅 Drink lots of water! Before pumping, during pumping, after pumping. Can try out sunflower lecithin and milk boosters from legendairy milk and most importantly, don’t stress over the amount (during pumping/after pumping). If not enough, just top up with fm. I only managed to transit to full BM at 1.5m 😊
