Breastmilk Supply and Rate of Production:

One of my favorite gurus in the lactation world says “If a breast can make milk, it can make more milk!”
 


A good rate of production (supply) is typically based on frequency of demand and deep breast drainage (which comes from a deep latch).  It is common to have less supply in afternoon and evening but it is important to still stimulate and evacuate the breast regardless of how much you get out (frequent emptying ).   Breast compression during the evacuation (by babe or pump) may help increase the rate of production and overall supply.

Other t
hings to consider that can decrease your supply (let me know if any of these factor in for you):  shallow latch / nipple pain, extreme fatigue, illness of you or babe, birth control hormones, pregnancy, menstration, change in medications, dehydration and overhydration as well as some maternal medical conditions of the thyroid and pituitary.

I have an email regarding supply prepared that you are welcome to.  Click SUPPLY EMAIL to request it and put supply in the subject line please.  If you are still struggling after trying these tips please call or email for further support.  breastfed2@yahoo.com or 913-915-5009.


Below are a couple of my favorite, trusted herbal galactogogues (milk enhancers) made by Motherlove - a very trusted resource.  I've found that these not only stimulate the rate of production but encourage the growth of new milk producing cells which in turn increase supply.  Research and feedback from moms shows that it is difficult to drink enough tea when trying to absorb this way and they are much happier taking the concentrate in a capsule form. 

Made with certified organic herbs, they never contain dairy, shellfish, fish, egg, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat or gluten. These products are manufactured in an FDA registered, GMP certified facility and are regularly tested for bacteria and heavy metals to ensure purity and quality. The liquid extracts are certified kosher by KOF-K.
