How does breast milk production work? Breast milk is produced based on supply and demand. When your baby nurses frequently, hormones like prolactin and oxytocin are released, helping maintain and increase milk supply.
If feedings are delayed or too infrequent, milk supply may gradually decrease, and breasts can become engorged or uncomfortable. In this video, we explain why responding early to your baby’s hunger cues and allowing one breast to empty before switching sides supports healthy milk production.
