Will my supply dip when my LO begins sleeping through the night?

Question

I’m a first time SAHM who is able feed on demand. My LO is 5 months, and currently wakes twice a night. I’m nervous that once he begins sleeping through the night, that I’ll have issues continuing to breastfeed.

Answer

I don't know. My son is almost 11 months and still wakes up multiple times a month lol

Answer

Your body will adjust. You will be a little sore at the beginning, but it will even out.

Answer

Also wondering. My 8 week old slept for almost 6 hours last night for the first time, and even then I woke her up because I didn't know if I could let her keep sleeping and if it would hurt my supply.

Answer

I’m curious about this too. From what I’ve read your body adjusts to the new schedule and you can pump if it’s hard to go that long for you comfort wise. Last night my 6 week old slept 5-6 hours so I’m wondering too!
