Guide me how to re-lactate?

Hello ibrualfi,

How is your breastfeeding relationship going with your son since his surgery?

Please see the Problems with Breastfeeding thread and read the pages referenced. Then post back with any specific questions you may have.

Have you stopped producing milk all together?

Pumping, drinking plenty of water, and taking supplements like Fenugreek and Blessed thistle can help to build and maintain a supply for re-lactation. Even some adoptive mothers, who have personally never experienced pregnancy, have been able to produce breastmilk for their little ones with enough stimulation.
