Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.For getting more breast milk you should feed your baby more with 2 hours intervals during day time.It will give more stimulation for milk production.You can take proteinacious foods and asparagus or asparagus containing supplements.Your milk production will increase gradually and become maximum around 6 months.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query
