Hi, You can follow these methods:
1. Ensure that baby is latching well and removing milk efficiently from the breast
2. Feed your baby more frequently-on demand at least 8 times in 24 hrs
3. Switch your baby from one breast to the other; offer each breast twice
ensure your breasts are emptied well ;
4. You can express after breastfeeds to make sure
do not go longer than 5 hours without milk removal
5. When your baby is feeding, compress your breast to aid milk flow as this will also encourage more effective sucking
6. Make sure you are drinking a lot of water, eating a healthy balanced diet and not missing any meals
7. Also ensure you are resting as much as possible between feeds
Hope these things help
