Thank you Lenore but the problem is that my baby do not take my breast and she drinks only small amount each time.

increasing nursings and lengths also can help to boost your supply my lactaion consultant said to go to bed and do nothing but nurse if you having trouble with your supply also blessed thistle helps

When you pump your milk, make sure you carry on pumping after the milk has stopped flowing (around 5-10mins extra). This tricks your breasts into thinking your little one needs more milk. Your supply should start to increase. Good luck!
