Increase your breast milk production!

breastfeeding is a rough journey, it’s exhausting, emotional and just overall ROUGH at times. If you’re finding yourself not producing enough follow these and I believe you’ll see a huge difference.

• oatmeal EVERY morning ( I hated it before but the maple brown sugar oatmeal & coffee combo hits everyday 😮‍💨)

• body armor 28oz everyday ( I drink the lyte to avoid excess sugar )

• 100+ oz of water a day ( this sounds awful i know but it really helps ) coconut water too helps! (if you can i hate it lol)

• a lot of protein!! this is huge ( i LOVE core power protein drinks they taste amazing coming from a picky af person they have ones with 26g and 42g of protein & they both taste amazing )

• pump in a calm environment with a hospital grade pump for 15 minutes every 2-3 hours (3 max)

• massage your b👀bs before & during (heat helps too)

• keep taking prenatal

• if you’re using a hands free wearable pump (ex. mom cozy) make sure you’re sitting and massaging for it to be effective. moving around and doing stuff makes less come out TRUST.

my dms are always open for more advice, support, etc, you got this mama !!🩷🤍

Trying sooo hard to increase my supply. My baby is 3.5 months old & I feel like at this point my supply is just stuck where it is. I’m pumping every 2-3 hours again, power pumping once a day, drinking & eating all the things. I haven’t seen an increase yet, but I’m trying not to get discouraged.

I had to pump while feeding my first baby because I was producing too much milk. With my second baby I was on medication that prevented me from breastfeeding for like 10 days and the hospital didn't give me a pump until the 3rd night I was there which stunted my production. I gave up my 3rd baby.
