Increasing breast milk

[bearhuggs]

Hi sisters! I'm a mom to a 28-day old baby. I'm mixed feeding I since my breast milk production is Hindi Ganun ka lakas. To increase your milk production, may iniinom ba  kayo or ano ginagawa Niyo ? Thanks

Hindi ko alam kung me effect talaga or psychological lang..

- on my 8th month, I started taking malunggay supplement, until now umiinom ako. 4mos na si baby.
- madalas din magluto ng tinola with malunggay sa bahay.
- pagkapanganak ko, my MIL cooked sinabawang lapu-lapu (forgot what the dish is called). Pampadami din daw ng milk.
- I drink lots of water. Usually, I drink 1 glass before pumping/feeding, then 1-2 glasses ulit after.

Exclusive breastmilk iniinom ni 4mo old baby ko. I directy feed her sa morning at sa gabi. During the day, yaya feeds her using the bottle with my frozen/refrigerated pumped breastmilk.

Thank you sis bagaholic_chewy will try the malunggay thing and glass of water before and after feeding/ expressing milk. Hopefully dumami na din milk ko. Ayoko  making dependent sa formula

Hi. Taking Domperidone 3x a day can help. :-)

Member na rin ako ng breastfeeding pinays in FB.  Helpful yung sinabi ng friends ko to regularly pump every 2 to 3 hours and only feed 1 oz per hour for a one month old infant.  Napaparami yata feeding namin before that I had to rely on other mothers to provide for my baby's breastmillk. Getting better at it

Worry ko lang is if I go back to work na. Waking up at 3am and 6am is taking its toll.

^^di ba may tamang pagstart and paghinto daw ng inom ng domperidone.pag mali e hihina daw lalo milk?

Pansin ko madami milk ko pag happy and/or relaxed ako. Kaya siguro sabi ng iba dumadami milk nila pag nakakain ng chocolates or uminom ng milk tea.sumasaya kasi.

^^^domperidone - is this one tested ?

will also try to regularly pump. minsan kasi from the usual 50ml na nakukuha ko, halos wala na ako makuha/ipon  if i do it every 3 hours. probably, factor din young stressed ako thinking  paubos na milk ko. 
ayoko maging dependent masyado si baby  sa formula.   Iba pa run of course pay BF

Hi. About domperidone, theres a lot of randomized controlled trial studies that says it can help. You can actually look up at Cochrane library. :-)

Based on my own experience from my own patients yan ha, ASIDE from all those technique to increase your milk, it can help. Of course, hindi naman ibig sabihin its 100% effective to 100% ng patients.

It's you again!  I learned about medela house and desowen cream because of your posts hehe OT.

Girls try eating malunggay soup and take malunggay supplement and lots of liquids.  Sleeping relaxes me and I always have more milk when I wake up   Pump lang ng pump on time kahit hindi pa marami supply.  It will get better daw.

^ hello, hello! Hehe..

As much as possible, nagpapaluto nga don ako ng sabaw with malunggay leaves. 4.5mos na si baby and I'm hoping my milk supply will last until at least 1y/o sya..

Hi sis bearhuggs, i suggest na you stop mixfeeding your baby gradually, kasi kaya hindi dumadami yung milk mo kasi naleless yung demand. If you keep on latching your baby, more demand, your body will produce more milk.

Ive been breastfeeding my son for almost 19 months na, and super okay pa rin ang supply ko. But there are days ina month na i feel tuyot, so when that happens i take a capsule or two ng malunggay life oil and or fenugeek. In the start, i took two malunggay capsules a day, nun feeling ko okay na ako, once a day na lang til me weeks na hindi ako umiinom. Paglagpas ko ng 1 year, nag fenugeek naman na ako. During the last 19 months, aside sa positive thinking, nagmamilo ako, oatmeal, once in a while na lactation treats, and loads of water. Parang 2 weeks din ako pagkapanganak na malunggay based ang ulam, after that kung ano ano na.
