breastfeeding and sick
Has anyone that has exclusively breastfeed notice any decrease in milk supply while sick ?
I have a mild cold just started yesterday but I guess it's been running thru my body because LO got a mild one too and notice baby was more cluster feeding and fussing at the breast all night and into today I had been pumping to increase supply and was pumping a good 3oz together I know it's not a lot but I pump after feeds never before and just a little while ago I pump after feed and nothing at all came out my boobs feels softer than ever since I gave birth they get full when baby is bout to eat and hasn't been happening I been feeding on demand haven't done anything different no supplement so I see no other reason for it to be so low unless my body just gave up on me 💔
I'm really sad because breastfeeding was going wonderful up until yesterday and I feel like milk is low and trying to reassure myself it's because I'm sick but idk 😢😢😢😢
Anyone else ? Previous or current experience
Please help make me feel better
I feel like a failure
