I just can’t keep up! 😭

Full time working mom here. I went back to work at 10 weeks and thought I had a not great, but decent stock of milk. I thought as long as I pump at work I’ll keep my supply up and keep a decent flow of storage.

We have officially caught up to what I had stored and I’m basically using what I pumped the day before. This weekend I tried so hard to power pump, drink tons of water, drink mothers tea, a beer a day, and still haven’t seen an increase in my supply. I had to introduce her formula just so I had enough milk to give to daycare today. I’m just so sad! 😭

I went from never really wanting to breastfeed but was open to the idea. Now it breaks my heart because I’ve worked so hard and fought through the pain to have to give her formula just sucks. I’m not giving up, I’ll keep trying! But just needed to vent. 💕
