You certainly could try. I've heard stories about women being able to reproduce milk after a year of weaning! The main thing is going to be your baby if it will remember to latch on. Start by pumping every 2-3 hours the first week 2-3 the next week. If milk starts flowing then start feeding your baby as much as possible. The best pump is a baby's mouth. You could also try the herb Fenugreek, I've heard it helps with milk supply.

You probably can. Your best bet is to go to a breastfeeding clinic and ask them. But when I had my twins my milk didn't come in fast enough - so the lactation consultant recommended a medication which has a side effect of making you produce more milk - it worked fantastic!
Definately go to a breastfeeding clinic (there are many free ones) and ask there!

I think it's too late. I tried that too but I tried starting up again after 3 weeks and no milk came in. Ask a lactation consultant to see what you can do. Good luck.

Why in the international a pediatrician could enable you be conscious of you will desire to provide up nursing is previous me. You provide up once you're waiting to resign. She somewhat would desire to discover ways to drink from a sippy cup, if in hassle-free terms to make the transition to all solids-no longer nursing a sprint less complicated. yet there is not any reason you need to resign nursing at a million year. And solid for you! it somewhat is the main suitable ingredient ever on your new child.

if you can squeeze even a drop out then I would recommend calling your doctor and asking for Reglan, it's a drug used to treat stomach problems but has a side effect of upping milk production! Best of luck to you

Talk to a lactation consultant. If anyone can get you going, they can.
