I have a 2 month baby but my breast milk supply is very less. I eat healthy food. I had taken lactare tablets after my delivery and my supply was good. But eventually my supply has dropped. I've taken galactogogues like Shatavari, methi, garlic which showed a boost in milk supply but after stopping it my milk supply reduced. My baby doesn't latch strongly. I'm feeding every 2-3 hours but still no increase in milk supply. Baby passes urine but is gaining weight slowly. At birth it was 3.3 kg and it reduced to 2.9 then in 15 days it reached 3.1 kg again after 25 days it was 3.6kg and after 10 days it weighed 3.9 kgs. Everyone who sees the baby says it's too thin. I'm worried what could be the reason. It takes around 4 hours to refill my bread milk. Kindly suggest remedies for increasing milk supply so that baby also gains weight.

Don’t worry. You will produce adequate milk to your baby. Sucking is the stimulus and your breasts will produce enough milk for your baby. Please take lots of non veg foods. People always say that your baby has not gained weight. From your history it shows that your baby is gaining weight. Don’t worry
