Milk supply

Hi mummies! It's been day 5 since my baby is born and my milk supply whenever I pumped is at roughly 10ml or less..is this considered ok or too little milk for a start? I breastfeed my baby and give him formula to supplement as well.

Latch on is the best way to slowly increase feed. My suggestion is BM by syringe feed + latch on. I have very high protein diet (fenugreek supplement [3 tablet, 2-3times per day]+ oat milk drink x2/day) My BM went from 10mL to 30mL and D7/8 is around 60-80 mL per 30 min express. Size of the flange is very important!
