DO I NEED TO WORRY ABOUT LOW MILK SUPPLY?

Low milk supply is one of the most common concerns I see as a Breastfeeding Medicine physician, pediatrician, and IBCLC in Chicago. Unfortunately, by the time many patients find their way to me, we have already lost precious time in figuring out why the supply is low, and in starting to intervene to maximize production. Being aware of potential risks for low milk supply before giving birth can help you prepare and take steps to maximize your chances of successful breastfeeding once the baby arrives.
