Ok this will probably sound like a really stupid question but I will ask anyway. I pumped milk for about a week or two when my LO was born cause we couldn’t get her to latch and then we decided to go to formula. My question is….Is there anyway to get your milk to flow again after you have not done it for 7 weeks? If so how?

Also my LO is eating about 3oz every two hours. Is that normal or should she be eating more. I keep reading about kids eating 6oz at 2 months and there is no way she is eating that 🙂

A couple of moms were working on relactating a few months back – try PMing them b/c I think @ least one of them was successful!!!

They were:

“ChloeMommy” & “isabellasmommy”.

I’m sure they would be able to give you some direction!

Good Luck!

Thank you so much. I sent a message to chloesmommy but could not send one to isabellasmommy because it said she had exceeded the number of PMs she could receive. But I also looked at the kellymom website and it was very helpful. I guess I will just start pumping away to see if I can get it back.

I think you can try a prescription drug that helps relactate. I would talk to your doctor. Also, at that age my son ate around what your child is eating. He still does not eat 6 oz and he is 4 months old.
