Sounds enough, if: he receives about 6-7 feeds a day, feeding on demand. As regards nursing, I'm sorry to say that it won't help at the moment after 4 months, if your milk supply isn't enough and your baby got used to formula, wish you both wellness

I have recently had an abortion and I had of course experienced the breast changes that would occur preparing for lactation. I have had a child that I breast fed and I am interested in re inducing lactation for personal reasons. I have used a manual pump

Is mastitis purely developed from breast feeding, lactation etc or just the sucking of nipple that develops it and therefore infects?

I have low milk supply, I have tried lactation cookies. But before the cookies the doctor had prescribed espiride 50mg where my breast would swell up with milk but my son wasn't latching at that time and I wasn't pumping. My son is 26day old now?
