DS is now 3 1/2 weeks old and we've been mostly BF'ing from the beginning. We had to do a little supplementing due to jaundice. My left side is really lacking in supply compared to the right. In the hospital they gave me a shield thingy to help pull the nipple out. Due to an accident as a child, the top 1/3 of my nipple is basically missing making it flat. DS never had a hard time latching on to it even with it like that. Now my right side is producing a lot but the left just doesn't seem to have anything. I know that baby is better at getting the milk than a pump, but when I pump I'll get about 2-2.5oz from the right and maybe 1/4oz from the left. I've tried increasing my water intake and read that eating oatmeal helps so have been doing that also. I'm offering the left side first and when he wants to comfort nurse putting him on there. Any suggestions or thought on ways I could boost the supply? I didn't nurse DS1 so this is all a new experience to me and I really want to be successful with it! TIA.
