The main stimulus for increasing lactation are feeding at regular intervals and a good,healthy diet by you.
Feed at atleast 2 to 2-1/2 hours gap.
Try cap lactare 2 cap thrice a day,and tab perinorm twice a day,both for 2 weeks.If lactation increases,continue for atleast 3 months,or till the the time your milk is sufficient,otherwise stop.
If at all you have to give top milk,give ONLY infant formula.
