Help please! How do I improve my milk supply?
I have been BF my newborn for 1 week now - 4 hourly feeds. She always needs a formula top-up afterwards (at least 30 mls). I express after each feed and there is barely any milk left. My milk came in late (day 5-6; I hasd a c-section and that may by why): now on day 8, and the situation is not improving. I never feel like my breasts are "full" and she is not satisfied after a feed.
Please please can anyone help? I really want to stick at breastfeeding, but am becoming demoralised about it ............
