this morning at 6am i managed to pump out 150ml, feeling mighty pleased with myself, n decided to offer it all to my boy cos at 3am he drank 140ml. n past couple of days when i only pumped 80-90ml, he will usually finish the supplement FM of 45-60ml. then guess what, he stopped drinking at 100ml, n no matter what i do - change diapers, walk around the house, he will give me that ke lian gagging face when i try to coax him for the next hr. So in the end i had to throw the balance 50ml away. wah, pouring that much BM down the sink is like somebody slicing a piece of flesh from me, sooo heart pain! kicking myself for being stupid, i learnt my lesson, next time i will give only 120ml, which was my previous avg n what he drinks, chill the balance, n if he fuss before the next feed, then give him the 30ml.
i tried so many "boosters" that i don't even know what works n what doesn't. my supply did increase from the 30-40ml in the initial wks to avg 120ml now, but its been stagnant for the past 2 wks. Some of the so-called boosters i have tried r fish soup, lactation cookies, red bean soup, coconut oil, flaxseed, rolled oats, milo.
