Should I continue BF/pump?

FTM here, 7weeks PP. I’ve been trying to BF my LO since he was born and even engage an LC to help with latching. Some days he latches, some days he refused to latch, no matter how hard I tried. Secondly, my supply is really extremely low. I do pumping, but barely reaches 10ml for both side. With the result I get, I feel like giving up BF. Any advice on how to increase supply? I do take Swiss Breastfeeding Support as supplement and snack on some lactation cookies but still the same. Or should I just give full FM as it’s really exhausting to trying to get him to latch or pump.

Little breastmilk at day 5 that still looks like colostrum

Why does my breast milk still look like colostrum after baby is born for 5 days? And the quantity is so little, less than 1ml.

As much also to tackle time btwn husband, chores n kids. Advisable to latch newborn without pumping? Or atleast for the 1st month, as for my both two kids was so burntout and stress that i drop bf aft 2/3 month. TIA

I’m thinking to stop breastfeeding at 6m mark - as in pumping…it takes a toll on me, and i find it inconvenient if i were to go out for a full day as theres just too much to bring and if i dont pump, my breast hurts…i also dont watch my diet, my MIL asks me to stop eating spicy food and eat more fibre to that baby poo everyday, but as much as im eating my veg, my baby dont poo everyday. And i love my bbt that i have it everyday (w25% and no topping) im afraid my breastmilk might give bby diabetes? not sure if thats works actually…if i were to stop giving my LO BM at 6 months, am i selfish?
