Formula supplement: You do not have to completely give up breast feeding. You can still pump out breast milk even a small amount and feed your infant. Formula supplement has to be provided as well.

Lactation consult: Call the nursery nurses at the hospital you used for delivery to find local lactation consultants. Good for you for not giving up! stay well-hydrated, get a rocking chair & a boppie for your comfort, & some nipple cream. Minimum calories for breast milk production =1500. Let your family do all the housework - kind of like the medieval lying-in period!
