And then there r babies like mine that defy all theories. Formula fed every friggin half hour for the first month. I should say mashallah cuz his requirement was outrageous. And i didnt have enough production of my own. I would also like to say that its not always true that the more the child suckles the more u produce. My baby was totAlly dependant on me for the first two weeks . I would feed him and pump afterwards as well as drinking ant eating more than necessary, did squat to increase my production. So no, not always does the production increase. Its the same amt from birth to now. I just put him to the breast now cuz it calms him.

Did they try giving you medication to produce more milk? I had to go onto medication after my second week cause my milk production shot down. The meds cost freaking $100 and didn’t even work. They gave me a month supply … I took it for a month and nothing.
