Lactation.
My son is 2 month old.. Sometime I use to pump the milk and giving to him... If I pump in the morning I can get 120 ml of milk and if I pump after 4 hrs or in the evening I get only 70 ml or 80 ml of milk .. Is it is normal or I m having insufficient milk?. And how can I increase my milk in between feeds?.

It is okay...not always the milk production is same.
But try breast feeding always, that's better than pumping
Pumping is only for when you are not around and the baby needs to be fed or your baby is not sucking well.

Hello ! Eat healthy diet like greens leafy vegetables, beans , take milk also withnalctair granules. And drink plenty of water . Put the baby directly to breast with suckling milk only production will increase
