Did you know that there is something called a supplemental nursing system (SNS)? An SNS is a bag, filled with pumped breast milk or infant formula, that is attached to a long thin tube. This tube is slipped into baby's mouth while he is nursing, allowing him to swallow milk provided by the mother's body and the supplemental nutrition.
If a mother is experiencing low milk supply, an SNS may help to safeguard the baby's need for increased nutrition, while simultaneously allowing the mother's body to experience the stimulation and milk removal that are so vital to increasing her milk supply.
