    • Breastfeed more often, at least 8-12 times per 24 hours
    • Discontinue the use of a pacifier.
    • Try to get in “one more feeding” before you go to sleep, even if you have to wake the baby.
    • Offer both breasts at each feeding.
    • Ensure that the baby is completely emptying your breasts at each feeding.
    • Eat nutritious meals; continue to take prenatal vitamins.
    • Back rubs stimulate nerves that serve the breasts (central part of the spine).
    • Increase skin-to-skin holding time with your baby; relax together.
    • Take a warm, bath, read, meditate, and empty your mind of tasks that need to be done.
    • Eat a bowl of cooked oatmeal daily.
    • Herbal preparations help many women increase supply. Examples are fenugreek, hibiscus, dill seeds.
