low milk supply
Anyone have similar issues? What did you do and how did it turn out? I'm told babies can drink from sippy cups at some point too

Breast pump between feedings; let it continue pumping for 2 minutes after the milk has been drained to stimulate more production. I second that you should go see a lactation consultant. I also found that being hydrated really helped boost the supply.springdays wrote: ↑Anyone have similar issues? What did you do and how did it turn out?

You can get dad to help facilitate lactation, if both of you's are kosher with that. Or as someone else mentioned, a breast pump.springdays wrote: ↑ Anyone have similar issues? What did you do and how did it turn out? I'm told babies can drink from sippy cups at some point too
Why can't we all just get along?

They are good at troubleshooting the various issues, which may not be supply, could be the latch, could be techniques etc. Aside from fenugreek like the other mentioned, there's also a prescription drug you can take to increase supply. But I would let the doctors and lactation consultant figure what is best in your scenario.
