Clogs and supply drop
Has anyone dealt with a sudden drop in supply after battling clogs? I’m about 4.5mpp and have mostly been pumping for my twins although I nurse one of them once or twice a day. Last week I suddenly got clogs on both sides. I pumped them out and started take sunflower lecithin but my supply has totally yanked since then. I already was only making enough for one baby (half their needs) and supplementing with donor milk. We have quite a bit of donor milk still so I am trying not to freak out but it’s very frustrating. One side still feels like it can’t empty well even though I’m taking the full 9,600mg dose of lecithin. I’ve added in a power pump and I’ve always done a MOTN pump. Nothing else has changed except I’ve been getting a little less sleep because of the 4 month sleep regression. My husband has been trying to help me get more sleep overnight.
Has anyone experienced something similar and recovered?
