A little advice

[Momtothesecondpower]

With my son I breast fed for the first month and a half and bottle fed bc he was so hungry.  I was not producing enough milk when I pped I was only getting two ounces out of one and three out of the other. I wanted to know if any of you ladies knew ways to build up supply if I have the same problem with this baby? I have tries mothers milk tea but I can not stand the taste!

Everything lindsagain said and there are other things to try couple different teas from the mothers milk one (I agree horrible taste) and supplements and certain foods are suppose to help boost milk production like oatmeal.  No alcohol the thing with drinking a beer is false it makes for an easier let down but decreases actual milk production good luck momma

I agree with lindsagain,
I have breastfed all my children and have seen lactation  consultants and specialists. I would pump even after my daughter would turn away full just to build my production.

Here are ways to boost your milk supply:

1. Breastfeed frequently. Frequent breastfeeding is the number one key to boosting your milk supply. 
2. Offer both breasts during feedings.
3. Make sure baby nurses long enough to empty your breast when she nurses.
4. Don’t schedule feedings. Follow your baby’s hunger cues for feeding.
5. Allow your baby to cluster feed. Cluster feeding is when a baby breastfeeds several times during a short period of time. Babies often cluster feed in the evenings before they go to sleep.
6. Try switch nursing. Nurse on one breast, if baby gets tired of nursing switch to the other breast, and continue switching breasts until both breasts are empty or baby will no longer suck.
7. Use breast compression when you nurse. Breast compression involves massaging your breast and squeezing extra milk out as your baby nurses.
8. Breastfeed at night. Night feedings are great for boosting milk supply.
9. Pump after nursing. Usually pumping after nursing will help empty the breast. If you find that you are not pumping anything after nursing you can try pumping before nursing. Babies are much more efficient at emptying the breast than a pump so this may work better for some moms.
10. If your supply is low or baby is not gaining weight see a lactation consultant for help.
11. Make sure baby is latching on well. Try more than one technique to get your baby latched on.
12. Get support from breastfeeding moms.
13. Pump while you nurse. Pump on one side and nurse on the other. Then switch sides and let baby empty the breast that you pumped.
14. Get lots of skin to skin contact with baby.
15. Nurse in bed. Lying down in bed may help you relax and allow baby to nurse for longer periods of time.
16. Don’t sleep on your stomach at night. This may compress your breasts and hinder your supply.
17. Let your baby comfort nurse even if you don’t hear her swallowing.
18. Try babywearing. Carry your baby in a sling or try nursing her in the sling.
