My milk hasn't completely dried up and it's only been about a week and a half since I last fully breastfeed.
In the last 10 days I was expressing milk for every feed and bottle feeding due to ongoing attachment issues but after a couple of extremely tiring nights I didn't express for about 12 hours and used formula instead. Now I can only express about 20ml.
I wasn't going to worry about it, but every day I feel so upset that I cant BF and want to try again.
I started taking fenugreek today and started expressing (manual hand pump) every 3 hours.
Is there anything else I can do? Should I be attempting to get baby to suckle as well as expressing, and how long should I be expressing for?Does anyone know any success stories?
I know there are a few midwives that post on the forums - Any advice???
Please help
