Is it possible to get milk supply back, once someone's stopped breastfeeding for 3 months postpartum?

Hi Sarah Bateman! Yes, it is possible. To help advice better, we will need to understand more information from you. For example how long have you breastfed your baby before you stopped. Are you still currently able to see any milk oozing out from your breasts? This is a relactation process and similar to the early days of breastfeeding, you will need to fulfill all the breastfeeding basics to kickstart the milk production. We will be happy to share more and advise you on how to go about the relactation process. Check in with us anytime to arrange to meet with our Chinese Physician Judy, who is also a certified lactation instructor, to guide you on this journey together. - Yen and Judy 💕
