She can take galact granules twice daily mixed in milk. Suckle the baby even if not feeding. Drink lots of water and take Fenugreek and fennel in diet.

Pumping is always less effective than normal breastfeeding.
So milk production is going to less and baby’s demand is going to increase day by day
She should have healthy diet , plenty of oral fluids.
Shatavari powder 2tsf in a glass of milk twice can help.

Exclusive breast feeding, good diet, tender and loving care with a lot of encouragement from family members during breast feeding will automatically increase the milk production.
Do not give bottle to baby. Directly feed on the breast
Good suckling by Baby on the breast is itself the best galactogogue.
