Exercise
Any other breastfeeding mamas have this problem???....I was trying to exercise and I was doing the elliptical in the mornings for about 20-30 minutes and I noticed a decrease in my milk supply towards the evenings. I stopped exercising for 6 days and I noticed my supply is back up. ? I was also trying to eat healthier which I still sorta am. I just really feel like I can't do much while I'm breastfeeding. I would love to lose weight but I feel like it's going to affect my supply ? I just want to know if this has happened to anyone else and what did you do about

I'm just not exercising until I'm done breast feeding :/ I just go for long walks for now. I am already having issues not pumping (Lo is ebf but I want to get a freezer supply started and I can't ever pump more than 2oz in the morning, lo is getting enough milk in just making extra.) anyways with my first exercising decreased my milk supply a lot but with her I had an oversupply so it wasn't an issue with this one in scared to work out I really can't have an ever lower supply than I have :( someone did mention to me to drink 2 Gatorades during the day to help boost my supply I just started yesterday.

I haven't noticed. I've been running and doing a beachbody workout. I know he's getting enough, I'm trying to get a freezer supply too so I'm eating more oats, made some lactation cookies, drinking as much water as I can. Was able to pump 4 oz yesterday. Hopefully can keep it up!

I thought this was happening when I was swimming 2-3 times a week and going for bike rides so I just decided to not worry about the last 10-15 till he's on solids.
