@637371add28b060015d99780 I was reading your breastfeeding story today and it was as if I was reading my own experience. I went through exact same situation dear. Do stay in touch dear and let me know how u r handling this situation now. I also didn’t feed FM today and was giving my milk but unfortunately after every feed he was crying and I was cursing myself for keeping him hungry. I called my gynae and she said y r u taking so much tension. Do mixed feed as long u can and enjoy ur time with him.

@Reeti .... since your baby is on mixed fees since beginning ... your milk supply has gradually reduced. Milk supply is more on feeding more.
So to enhance Breast milk.... feed your baby as much as possible . The times when he has too feed try expressing / pumping the breast. Also Breast milk increases on having more liquids .
