Hi mummies, I would like to ask how can I increase my milk supply? I've tried: 1) pumping regularly 2) lactation cookies 3) drinking milo 4) taking supplement given by hospital when discharge for milk supply 5) hydrating myself with plenty of water 6) consuming lots of fish 7) let my LO(2months old) to latch, but he always cry and refuse to latch Seeing my supply reducing tremendously after confinement make me very depressed, please help me During confinement my milk supply for each pumping session can reach 160-200ml. But now it's only 40-50ml the most, sometimes even lesser.

U can try some of the things on this list. Besides that, being well rested and not stressed over it is important too but it sounds impossible right? I also pumped 40-50 for a v long time. I had a hard time finding my milk booster till I gave up since it was nearing the 6m mark alrdy and I wanted to cut down alrdy. All the best in finding something that works for u. If possible try to do power pump too
