my son is 3 weeks old and i am trying to pump for him because for some reason bfing is painful. i have seen a lactation consautlant and she said that he is latched on good. it feels like he is drinking fire from my nippples. pumping though does not hurt. now to the question at a pumping session i only get to 1.5 ounces. the ped said he should be eating 3 ounces at a sitting. I have been taking fenugreek and drinking mothers milk tea to help improve production and it has helped some before i could only get .5 to1 ounce so my question is is that normal? how can i get more milk production. it takes 2 or 3 pumping sessions to make one bottle dring which i have been having to suppliment . i pump every two hours untill the milk stops flowing. I have a medela mannual pump i want to get an electric but do not have the funds right now so the wic office gave me the medela i have. sorry for bing so long but would be grateful![]()
