Hi
I understand your concerns but don't worry. You may use lactonic granules to increase your milk production. Along with it try to feed your baby from breast as much as possible. Ensure proper position and attachment. It helps by giving best stimulation to your body. Drink plenty of water and each a very healthy diet. Gentle massage on breast at times when baby doesn't latch for more than 4 hours also helps.
