Hi.
I normally pump during my baby's feeding time, while I'm in the office. I also try to let my baby latch on as often as I can when I get home. I will try to pump n store as much bm in the fridge before I return to work so tat my baby has enuff supply.
And yes. Be prepared that supply will reduce after returning to work.

To increase milk supply medically, you can consult doctor and get the medicine from the doctor or you can get a herb called fernugreek from pharmacy.

yupp. somehow milk supply will decrease

but just try to pump as regularly as u can, perhaps every 3 hrs or so. if not, maybe just go to toilet to manually express for a while? cos it's e stimulation that counts.
when ure home just keep latching bb cos they r e best milk supply maintain-ers

when my supply decreases, i find drinking longan with red dates, eating spinach & eating ostmeal helps! some ppl take fenugreek, but results differ from people to people.
jia you! just dont stress
