Breast feeding

latch latch latch latch latch!🤣 the best way to encourage milk production is to get baby latched! people have relactated after months so I definitely don’t think it’s too late to try! also i’ve heard coconut milk/water (i can’t remember which) is good for lactation. also, if you’re in the UK, the NHS have lactation consultants who can help! your health visitor can refer you xx

talk to the health visitor! I fed my son twice in hospital then switched to pumped milk, 3 weeks ago we started breastfeeding. obviously not the same as relactating but I didn't think a breastfeeding journey would be possible for me but it was, so I would try if thats what you want!

It's possible but it's going to be really difficult. We know from research that feeding in those first days is crucial to switch on the milk making cells. Once there turned on it's much easier to relactate. The other issue you may have is that baby might not know how to latch. I would head to a breastfeeding peer support group or speak to a lactation consultant for the best hands on help

Hey! Im trying to do similar - i had a traumatic birth and tried to breastfeed for about a week, I was so exhausted and poorly that I had to switch to formula, im now feeling better but want to try and breastfeed again. Happy to support each other if you want to reach out - my baby will be 6 weeks on tuesday xx
