Improve Your Breast Milk! CC

1. First weeks of PP you may experience engorgement. This is how your body figures out how much your baby needs in order to be full. Drain your breast after every feeding with your breast pump.

2. STAY HYDRATED: Hydration is very vital to your supply. Drink 4 bottles of water daily. You can drink Pedialyte and/or Body Armor are also ways to stay hydrated.

3. EAT! EAT! EAT!: I can’t stress how diet is extremely important to continue producing milk and what you consume can promote breast milk. Some examples are protein like eggs, veggies like spinach, FF milk, oats, oatmilk, oreos, vegetables oil. And many more!

4. SUPPLY DEMAND: Our body will only produce how much we let down. If our babies are not feeding or we are not pumping we will not produce much! Latch your baby as much as possible or pump every 2-3 hours.

5. Power Pump: If you noticed a decrease in supply power pumping is a great way to mimic cluster feeding! Pump for 20min Rest for 10mins pump for another 10mins rest for 10 mins then finish with a 10min pump. Do this 1-2 times a day. It should take 2-3days to see increase.

6. MINIMIZE STRESS & ANXIETY: Not many talk about this but stress can play a role in your milk production! Remember to put yourself first, do what makes mommy happy! That’s the only way you can be the best version of yourself. Have self care days, shower/bathe, dress up, do anything that helps you get back to you. So you can be your very best.

As a new mom, understanding how to improve your breast milk supply can feel overwhelming. Engorgement in the early postpartum weeks is natural, as your body tunes into your baby's needs. Remember, staying hydrated is critical—consider drinking at least four bottles of water a day, and try beverages like Pedialyte or Body Armor to stay balanced. Nutrition plays a significant role; consuming protein-rich foods and healthy fats like eggs and vegetable oils can promote milk production. The supply and demand principle is crucial: regular breastfeeding or pumping every 2-3 hours enhances supply. If your milk production seems to decline, power pumping can simulate cluster feeding, which may help boost your supply in just a few days. Lastly, prioritizing self-care by managing stress levels is essential, as anxiety can negatively impact milk production. Don't hesitate to dedicate some time for yourself—whether it's relaxing baths or simple pleasures to rejuvenate your spirit and support your breastfeeding journey. By implementing these strategies, you'll likely see a positive change in your milk supply and overall breastfeeding experience.
