My son Levi is 15 days old today. He has been bottle fed up to now. My last child (7 years ago) was breastfed. He slept on my chest for skin on skin time night before last and in my sleepyness I almost nursed him in the middle of the night. Old habits die hard I suppose. After thinking about that all day I noticed that I was actually wishing I had nursed him as well. So we gave it a run. He will still happily latch on, to my surprise. I still have some fluid coming from my breasts but not a "milk supply" by any means. My question is, can I get things going again and hopefully nurse him afterall? Any info would be great. Thank you!

It's not too late . Check this link out for more: http://www.kellymom.com/bf/supply/relactation.html . I've never done that personally, but it IS possible to build a supply back up again.

there are all kinds of things you can do to build up your supply, you can even get a pump to help. Good luck I hope it works out for you!!
