Hi dear
welcome to the HCM.
Repeated suckling of the breast by the baby is best stimulus for the enhanced lactation,
Increase your protein and fluid intake.
Be comfortable and relaxed while feeding.
Lactare capsules and Tablet perinorm can be taken with not much proven ability.
Watch the weight of the child frequently.Should be gradually and continuously increasing.
Continous waight gain of the baby is the best indicator for the adequate milk supply to the baby .
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
