Only 60ml breast milk
Hi mummies I’ve very low milk supply, currently at 60-70ml per pump. Baby is 6 months old. I pump every 4-5 hours. I tried several milk boosters and lactation supplements but don’t work. Will u stop or continue if u were me?
Keep going Mummy. Even if it is little. I used to pump hundreds in a day. Now I’m still pumping even if it’s just 10ml. I use that to mix with baby’s food. Or freeze it into cubes for baby to bite on when she’s teething. I also keep a stash of my very little milk so when she’s sick, I can give it to her. She’s drinking FM now, I can’t blame anyone but myself cause I haven’t been latching her as often, haven’t been drinking enough water, haven’t been diligently pumping and have been under a lot of stress. Sometimes I feel like a waste of time when I express milk and all I can see is droplets of it instead of shooting out from many different holes. It’s tragic. I miss it. I would say, 60ml is so much better than 10ml. And then again, 10ml is also better than none at all. So just keep going. Can also try power pump (even if it is dry pumping). 20 mins pump 10 mins rest (drink water) 10 mins pump 10 mins rest (drink water) 10 mins pump
