Many times mother feel that there milk is inadequate.
If the weight gain of the baby is adequate ie 15 to 30 gm per day.
If baby is passing 6 to 7 times urine per day.
If baby is sleeping adequately after feeds.
If above 3 points are taken care of then your your child is getting enough milk and no need to worry.
It is important that the mother does not take stress and takes adequate home food, milk, fruits and vegetables and other nutrition. If this is taken care of the milk supply remains good.

Hi, there is as such no medicine which will increase breast milk.Hence the more you feed the more milk will come.If baby is passing urine more than 6 times in a day that means baby is getting milk.
