The three equally important priorities for working through breastfeeding problems are: 1) Feed the baby extra, preferably with the mother's own milk at the breast when available. 2) Protect milk production by moving extra milk out of the breast through pumping and/or hand expression. 3) Preserve the breastfeeding relationship through frequent skin-to-skin contact, which keeps the breast "on baby's mind" and helps milk production.
