Supply

Lauren • Mommy of 4. 👧🏽👧🏽👶🏽👼🏽

My four month just had his shots yesterday, no fever just a little more fussier and tired then usual. This evening he has not want anything to do with nursing. I had to pump twice in order to feed him. Do you think it’s because of his shots? What if he doesn’t want me anymore. He’s never had a problem latching with me. He’s had a problem transitioning to the bottle. But that was over a month ago.

I’m freaking out. I don’t think I’m producing enough to keep up with him. I work 12 hour shifts 5 days a week I pump three/four times when I’m there and get anywhere between 6-3oz each pump session. Sometimes my time to pump changes but only by 30/45 minutes. I have made lactation cookies, boobie balls, mothers milk, yellow Gatorade, oatmeal every morning drink over a gallon of water a day, one glass of oat milk every morning and nurse when I’m not at work. Today was the first time I feel like I didn’t produce enough at home with him. I’m scared. He’s my last and don’t want to lose my supply. My husband may have to supplement tomorrow if I don’t pump enough throughout the night/morning before I have work tomorrow. He’s never had formula. Any suggestions would help me tremendously. Desperate.
