Help - decreased milk production.

Carmen

Hey

I have been a mother for almost 11 months now. I still breast feed and pump for my daughter. breastfeeding means so much to me and I have usually got an highish supply.

I currently got sick and after 3 weeks of them telling me it's just viral flu and to take a mixture of flu meds (corenza C, lintagon, acc200, med lemon etc.) I went back for the 3rd time and finally found I have heavy bacterial sinus and chest infection. I'm now on a lot of meds which I have made sure was baby safe for my little one and breast feeding.

But now my milk has drasticly dropped not only coz I'm sick but coz of corenza C as it dries up your milk production - which I didn't know and also asked the doc if everything were safe for breast feeding.

I am now in a panic coz I have extremely low milk production and want to get back up to where I was.

I have a hands on job and a hands on child. So I am now struggling to pump more frequently. If I can squeeze a pump or so I try.

I'm taking nursing tea and preg/lactating supplements.

I need to get back to where I was. Does anyone have any recommendations or helpful advice please.

Thanks
