Low milk production

2024-06-23 00:18:13
We had a baby boy 2 weeks before and since he was born 37 weeks he wasnt able to latch properly. Its been 2 weeks and my wife only had around 25-30 ml milk per feed upon pumping. We bought a electric pump and started pumping since yesterday. Is there a possiblility of increase milk production? We are practicing our baby to latch and sometime he latch for few minutes and then starts crying.
