Is it even possible to boost my supply? 😭 Need encouragement.
My baby started refusing the boob around 5 weeks and I have been in hell trying to get my supply to keep up with her increasing needs. She is 9w now. We are combo feeding pumped milk and formula since I am only making about 1.5-2.5 per pump on average (sometimes less 😣) and am pumping about 6-8x per day, getting 11-15oz total per day. She's feeding about 8-10x and is taking about 27-30oz in a day.
Are there any of you out there who can give me some hope about being able to catch up to her? And then maybe one day drop my number of pumps per day too? 😵💫😵💫😵💫
Just need a little encouragement and advice on how to make this happen.
I have an LC, have tried every flange size (plastic and silicone), I have rented the Medela symphony (my spectra was killing me), and have added a power pump as my MOTN pump session.
Helpppppppp 🤍🤍🤍🤍✨✨✨
