Re: For those that are planning on breastfeeding
ditto the previous posters, nursing is the best way to get your milk supply up, and then the other recommendations of tea and oatmeal. A big thing is making sure that you keep drinking like a pp mentioned too.
I've never really used supplies for breastfeeding, I do have a Boppy, and I have a small electric pump (the next level up from a hand pump). My s.mom who nursed all her girls started her pump around 3-4 weeks, and she made it an actual extra feeding, and kept the time for it. Say at 10 am every morning she would pump, the baby would of ate 2 hours prior and not need to eat for another 2 hours. She went back to work with the first one, and kept the pumping schedule at work.
