Reglan (metoclopramide): Try some Reglan (metoclopramide) 10 mg 3x/day for 3 days, it will boost your breast feeding with increasing fluid intake.

More Breastfeeding: The best way to increase milk supply is to nurse more often. If this isn't helping, see a lactation specialist to see if there is an issue with your breast tissue or your baby's suck.
