▲ 2 r/breastfeeding
Hey yall, so i am a FTM and my baby is almost 3 weeks. I am really struggling with thinking that i am under producer. when i pump im getting an average of 2 ounces (1 ounce on each side). im trying to build a supply and it feels like im not getting anywhere. When im breastfeeding her it feels like she isn’t getting enough and is still hungry even after 30 minutes of feeding on both sides, so we are supplementing with formula. I am doing everything i can to up my supply. I’m taking supplements, eating the “hacks” that i’ve seen, drinking so much water and body armor and it feels like nothing is working. has this been anyone else’s struggle? should i just throw in the towel or just keep trying?
