What should I do if there is insufficient breast milk? Should I take supplement/food for my baby?

Hi Anini, how many days postpartum are you currently? Do note that breastmilk supply will take a while to increase if you are in your early days of childbirth. To help boost your milk production, we will always recommend mommies to consume pro lactating food and herbs first as they are the most natural ingredients to increase your breast milk. Food such as oats, almonds, avocado, fish are amongst the popular recommendations. Herbs such as Tong Cao 通草, Huang Qi 黄芪, Dan Sheng 党参, Dang Gui 当归, Jie Geng 桔梗, Mai Dong 麦冬 are one of our recommended recipe for Pro-Lactation soup.
