So tomorrow is my postpartum check up. I've been doing research as to why my milk supply is so damn low. At this point I feel like there's something medically going on with me and not just I'm "not doing it right". My breasts don't get full unless I wait 6 or more hours between pumping (the 2-3 hours you're supposed to wait, only get a few drops nothing worth saving). I stumbled across mammary hypoplasia. I've experienced just about every symptom the Internet gives me. I plan on discussing this with my midwife. Is there any mommas who has this condition? How do you deal with it?
My baby is 7 1/2 months and only weighs 16 lbs. it's normal for some to be petite. As long as they are getting enough wet diaper as day that's good. Are you on any medication? Some will slow down your production. I believe benedryl is one of them.
