Question: 1 / 400

How can the milk supply be effectively increased?

Hand express before feeds

Hand express after feeds

Expressing milk after feeds (option B) can effectively increase milk supply because it signals to the body to produce more milk. Option A is incorrect because hand expressing before feeds may not effectively stimulate milk production. Option C is incorrect because reducing feeding frequency can lead to a decrease in milk supply. Option D is incorrect because using a breast pump less often can also reduce milk supply. It is important to express milk after feeds as this helps to empty the breasts completely, promoting more milk production in the next feeding session.
