  I have a 2 month old also and needed to start storing up. A coworker of my husbands gave me some breastfeeding advice that helped with my milk supply. First I changed my diet a bit and eat a lot of oats. Those are supposed to increase milk supply. And I started pumping during my son's long nap in the afternoon and also again in the evening when my supply is a lot lower. Even if barely anything comes out when you pump at first, the more you pump the more milk you will make because it signals to your body that it needs to provide more to your baby. I started doing that a couple weeks ago and would only get about an ounce in 15 min and now I can get 4 oz in ten min. Enough for one to two bottles. Also drinking lots and lots of water. I notice I produce less milk the days I forget to drink a lot.
