What do I need to buy?

Hi parents! I intend to breastfeed my baby after birth. I didn't get the chance to do so with my other kids as my milk supply was really low even with Fenugreek. I also intend to bottle feed my bm just in case my nipples hurts/cracks. What do I really need to buy? The essential things for breastfeeding. I know breastpump is needed. What else? Also, what should I do to increase my bm? TIA for your advice & help ☺️

Nursing bra and breast pump/bottles. I intended to bf initially and wanted to avoid baby clutter so I didn't get any pump/ bottles. Boy, I was wrong. Pumping helped me to stimulate the nipples for more milk and also relief the tenderness when baby sleeps longer

Thank you so much, MomC. Your advice is very helpful to me. I will take note of this. Now I understand why my breasts felt tender last time. So sad I couldn't properly bf my kids last time due to lack of knowledge.
