if your babys pee count is more than 8 than your feed is enough for ur baby.. See if ur baby is crying that doesnt mean he or she is hungry.. sometimes they need warmth and affection as well. sometimes they also cry when they want to sleep. Introducing Formula is not a bad idea though. Once a day you can give but do consult ur doctor before introducing FM. Also start eating nicely, basically if your tummy is full and if you increase ur water intake, ur supply will increase. BM also increases when your baby sucks. The more ur baby sucks, the supply will increase. good luck.

Hi.. try to eat methi (fresh leaves Or dry) as much as possible n have lots of garlic. Also, u can take kacha papaya curry (like aloo fry u can make). These 3 are well known to increase BM. Even after drinking lots of water n trying these foods u think ur BM is not sufficient to your baby, talk to a pediatric before starting formula milk..

hi if u want better immunity for the baby then BM is the best. even if u sometimes get milk the baby may not seem to be satisfied the reason is the wkind of food we eat. Hence make sure u eat everything. Also a glass of milk twice or thrice a day is best .Apart from that make sure the baby is latched properly to suck enough milk. 3rdly the happy u r the better milk supply always remember this. I hope this will help.

I also one question that my bm supply is sometimes high sometimes low.... My baby is satisfied for 1 hour sometimes only half hour then again she is hungry.... As she use to pass urine frequently and she did potty then more hungrier she become... My mother in law had bottle feed their childrens.... So she use to say ur milk is not sufficient.... Give Opera feed but my daughter not accept Opera feed till she is very hungry and had no other choice.... My mother in law says mother feed is light and get digested and ur milk is not sufficient that's why she becomes hungry.... Now my daughter is 6 month old and she eats every thing very less... My family not believe that immune system increase with bf... They want their should be satisfied so no matter if u have to bottle feed

To increase breast milk supply u can take a medicine named Lactare. It's an ayurvedic med wid no side effects. Two to three tabs in a day( one at a time, thrice a day) n stop consumption when u get a proper supply. It is easily available in all medical shops wid nominal charges of Rs. 75 for 15tabs. Hope it will help u. Happy motherhood.
