My milk supply suddenly decreased dramatically, help!

Ioanna

My newborn is 2 weeks 4 days and I exclusively pumped because the baby kept latching, sucks for 2 secs and unlatches and then starts to get frustrated and scream so I just gave her the bottle.

However, last week for 2 days I somehow managed to breastfeed successfully but had to keep being persistent as sometimes it took maybe 20 mins just to get her to latch and stay on, but at night I pumped at least twice. However, wanting to breastfeed again the next day, she somehow struggled to even latch again and just didn't want to breastfeed no matter how much I tried. And to be honest I got frustrated and really over it because she's just crying non stop and wants to feed but the more I put her to my breast the more she cries. So that day, I went back to pumping.

Normally my milk supply is very good and I would pump around 145 ml in the morning and average around 110 ml during the day for 15 mins. But for some reason after the days I breastfed, in the morning I pumped 110ml which was odd and throughout the day I could only pump 90ml. I tried again the next day and pumped every 2-3 hours consistently and for 20 mins instead of 15mins. But no matter how much I pumped I could only pump 80ml to 90 ml. I tried pumping for longer than 20 mins and it's like there is no more milk coming out. My boobs constantly feel deflated now and not full. Today is my third day after trying to get back to pumping and my milk supply is non existent. have gone through all my milk reserve that I kept in the freezer, and I went out and bought formula this morning because I was not pumping any milk.

What is the cause for this sudden decrease? I have noticed I have started bleeding again from 3 days ago and im still bleeding. I haven't changed anything to how I was eating. I am even trying to eat more. I drink alot of water and fluids throughout the day. So, I really don't know. Does that mean I have dried up and I have to start just using formula? I have tried again to breastfeed the baby but she just does not want to nurse.

Please help because im really stressing now.
