Hello . Thank you for your question.
Some women don't get adequate milk.
For getting more milk you can take lactaways granules 1 scoop in 1 glass of milk everyday.
As far as possible feed your baby your own milk as that is. the best for your baby as it provides food as wel. as protection against various infections.
