Ok so for everyone who says they can work from home while watching their kids, they have built this for you. For $5500 it can be yours, compare that to the price of daycare! You’ll be saving money and the boss can’t see your kid on the webcam with this setup. https://www.demco.com/tmc-family-workstation

Look up power pumping to help increase demand/supply, otherwise good nutrition and staying hydrated.
Also remember your baby’s stomach size is small and growing, so frequent nursing/pumping will help your body regulate and grow to meet your baby’s growing demand. But if your baby is still very young or in a growth spurt, it’s normal to go through frequent nursing because their small stomachs only have so much capacity.
I was having the same issue. I ordered from a company called “greater than,” and within 48 hours, I was pumping 4-5 ounces. Their drinks are electrolytes, sugar free and hydrating. Peach/orange-mango& chocolate are my favorite. I also ate oatmeal with walnuts & almonds everyday…Whether for breakfast or a snack. My baby is almost 4 months and I finally have enough supply. Remember, the more you pump, the more you produce. It’s a hassle especially working but consistently pump every 2 hours for 2 weeks…and try to get up at least once in the middle of the night.
I am going through the exact same thing right now. My doctor just prescribed me Domperidone, will see if it works.
On day 3 of power pumping. How long did it take to see results? I know I’m getting in my head and frustrated that I’m not producing more. I’m getting around 2oz every time I pump.
Make sure you’re using the right size flanges and give it two weeks…and agreed. A consult will probably help tremendously
Update: been power pumping, and I feel like I have less of a supply now! 😫 just call a consultant to make an appointment.
No one said how frustrating breastfeeding is!
Aw I’m sorry OP. I hope the consultant can help and if it doesn’t work out, fed is best. 💗
