[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry you're experiencing this. Breastfeeding can be hard, and it's easy to feel like a failure when things don't go the way you thought they would, especially when you follow all the rules. I wouldn't buy another supplement. They all seem very scammy. Focus on water and calories. I'm talking a gallon of water a day. Get a big 32 or 64 oz container and set a schedule on when you should be refilling it. Try different foods and see how your body reacts. Oatmeal had the best result for me, and Indian too (but I responded well to fenugreek.) Are you pumping in the middle of the night? It sucks, but that was another thing that helped me a lot. I tried not to go more than 3 hours without pumping, especially the first 8-10 weeks. Best of luck, OP, and never beat yourself up over feeding your child. There's formula and there's donor milk. Your baby will be fed, and is lucky to have a momma who loves them so much. [/quote]
