Milk needed for my sweet 3 month old baby boy
Milk needed for my sweet 3 month old baby boy
I have a wonderful 3 month old baby boy and I have been giving it my all to give him the best gift my milk however things have been hard. He is my second child I had a really hard time feeding my 1st and gave up when she was 2 months old due to low milk supply. A low supply appears to run in my family my grandmother, mother, aunt and sister have had the same problem. Due to this I have been taking fenugreek and goat's rue since my son was born hoping I could avoid the situation. Ar first I thought things where going great and it was really going to work this time around however, around week 4 my milk supply started to drop just like it did with my daughter. I have had several visit to the lactation nurse along with breat feeding support groups and I just keep hearing the same thing pump and nurse as much as possible and my milk supply will go up however, I nurse and pump every two hours and still get little milk. I have also tired deomperidone and it was working but then I got the flu for over a week and my milk supply was almost gone. I have been working around the clock for the past two weeks to regain the supply I had but I am only able to pump about 2 oz every two days and have to supplement with formula every evening. My son is extremely fussy and gets a small rash on his cheeks every time I give formula. I have tired different types and they all do the same thing. I can tell he is having a very hard time digesting the formula and I spoke with his Dr. about the rash on his cheeks and was told is nothing to be worried about. I hate that I have to put him thru this and I would really appreciate any help. I am willing to pay for shipping, bags or any other cost. Please let me know if you are willing to help.
I live in Vancouver WA and I am happy to drive to you as long as it it no more then a two hour drive.
Thank you
Mindy
