8 Ways to Boost Your Milk Supply
I don’t think there's a breastfeeding mother out here who doesn't worry about her supply. When Weston was first born, I went through the same thing-- obsessive worrying and obsession with increasing my milk production! Of course when you're dealing with an infant that needs constant attention from start-to-finish in order to thrive...it takes all your energy just trying stay afloat as it is before adding more worries on top of everything else already stressful during this period of life - but once again: what choice do we have? Once these strategies helped me increase my output by over 4 ounces per side (and yes folks truly can measure!) then things seemed much happier around our house again
NURSE
Feeding your baby on demand is a great way to increase the number of milk supply. Our formula works by increasing both quantity and quality, so their increased consumption will lead you closer towards an easier-to breastfeed situation! I remember when my son first started demanding food all day long; it seemed pretty crazy at first but then again everything changed once we figured out what made him hungry - this process gets easier with time as well if done properly which brings me hope for future babies who may be struggling like mine was too sometimes
In order words: The more they ask FOR IT THE MORE OUR SUPPLY WILL INCREASE
DRINK WATER
We all know how important it is to drink water when nursing. You might not have realized that your body also needs fluids in order for you make milk! When I first started nursing, the thirst really kicked into high gear and my breasts were so sore from getting them wet every time we took a break (we nursed bath-time too). Now? Not only do they feel better but mommy gets plenty of sleep too thanks beverage corporations who understand what moms want: clean tapwater without any weird chemicals or sugars added."
PUMP AFTER FEEDING
When you're done nursing and want to pump, make sure that your milk maker is completely empty. Massage the breast while pumping for an even greater yield! Check out this article from The Kelly Mom on how awesome our boobs really are with all their amazing powers - including making more milk when we need it most (like during suckling).
MILK DUST
Milk dust is the perfect food for breastfeeding moms. It’s packed with ingredients that help you boost your milk supply like milk thistle, raspberry leaf and fenugreek seed! I love mixing it into my breakfast smoothie or eating some fresh strawberries + bananas on their own as well- they're so easy to make whenever we need them throughout weekdays because all of these nutrients are water soluble too which means just one serving will keep me full much longer than anything else would've done before noon time at least
MOTHER’S MILK TEA
If you're looking for a way to increase your milk supply, this tea might be just what the doctor ordered. It's caffeine free and has many ingredients that are known in natural remedies like soybeans or ginger root!
GATORADE
While some people believe that drinking Gatorade can increase your milk supply, it's not a proven fact. But for me personally I've always had better success with this drink when breastfeeding and so far my babies have thrived on the extra nutrition from breastmilk despite being bornogrammed (to avoid formula). The delicious taste of Glacier Freeze just makes everything easier during those baby-going days!
PRENATAL VITAMINS AND A HEALTHY DIET
What you eat and drink can make a world of difference when it comes to your milk supply. If taking prenatal vitamins didn’t work for you, try postnatal ones instead! You should also aim at sneaking in some healthy foods like fruit or vegetables into every meal so that both motherhood hormones are balanced with those from Mother Nature herself- the planet Earth itself ( USDA 2016 ).
