Milk have yet to increase even wen frequent latching

Realise my breast milk drop wen pumping. Right sight can go as low as 5-10ml for evry 30min pump. I think it started wen my 6weeks lo had a long stretch of night mal (3-4h) and i sas also asleep and woke up after 3h and dreamfeed her. Ive been latchimg on demand but has mot seen any increment. Powerpump sometimes nothing cameout on the 2nd or 3rd sesh. My left also not very much. Any advice? Im on oat biscuit for snacks and mama’s choice milk booster. How long will i see an increment? Its hard to pump on day time cuz LO takes shortnap then disrupt my pumping session #pleasehelp #advicepls

Hey mama, 2 months old is such an adorable stage and more alert time for interactions. Pumping is not the gauge of how much breastmilk supply a mum has, especially direct latching mums. We are human and the hormones is difference when breastfeeding our baby vs pumping. How much your baby peeped and pooped in a day? Baby's outputs and the weight gain actually are the better indicators. Another simple ways to increase the breastmilk supply will be doing a quick 5 minutes hand expression for each boob after each breastfeeding during the daytime, or squeeze in a few hand expression sessions that's manageable in a day after breastfeeding. You will likely to see the changes in about 48 hours. Is your breastfeeding positions comfortable for you and allows you to engage with your baby? Baby loves to look at beautiful mama during breastfeeding.
