20+ Things I Did To Boost Milk Supply

My breastfeeding journey with baby #3 turned out to be like a roller coaster ride.

After being happy that she didn’t get jaundice like her older siblings, she ended up hospitalised for a few days due to dehydration. Formula supplementation became mandatory until my milk supply was able to catch up with her demand.

At 1 months old things seemed better as her weight gain became steady and I was able to eliminate formula milk completely. But nearing 5 months old, her weight gain slowed down again below her curve, and her paed asked me to start solid early.

Oh my.., what a journey...
