Nigerian singer, Modupe Olateru-Olagbegi, popularly known as Mo’Cheddah on Friday detailed her struggle with breastfeeding and mental health after childbirth.

The mother-of-one who welcomed her baby late last year noted that her mental and breastfeeding “weren’t a great pair” as a lactating mother.

Taking to her Instagram story, she wrote, “I struggled with my milk supply the first week after birth was hard; trying to get the baby to latch, being new at this, and being unable to sit because of stitches and hemorrhoids. “My mental health and breastfeeding weren’t a great pair. So I took my time and did what I could, so obviously, my supply dropped drastically. I could barely pump a full ounce in one day.

“Now I’m feeling up to it again, so I started trying to re-lactate a couple of days ago; getting her to latch and pumping several times. I got nothing for the first two days” Sharing a picture of a small bottle half filled with milk, the mother continued, “I tried again yesterday night and this morning, and this is what I got!! . I’m staying hydrated, massaging the boobies, and pumping several times to get my supply back up.
