Hi, I have a 2 month old baby; my BM supply is very unsteady, facing a complete dried up situation these days. Baby has stuffy nose and is not latching on at all. Any suggestions on increasing the supply and helping baby latch properly.

For stuffy nose you can. instill saline nose drops like nasoclear or nasomist a few minutes before a feed. You can also put a few drops of eucalyptus oil on a handkerchief and place on your shoulders on the side that you are latching baby. For increased supply if you have a breast pump then pump immediately after baby has done feeding for a few minutes as this will teach your breast to produce more.
