Hey mamas. I just found I’m pregnant and my daughter is 8 months old.
She still is nursing and noticed she’s been crankier and eating more than usual I just tried to pump since she skipped her nursing to eat solids and was only able to pump 1 oz from both breast.
Has any of you had your milk supply drop due to pregnancy? I was planning to do the whole year of nursing with her but I feel like I might need to supplement now because she isn’t getting enough milk.
Sometimes your body doesn’t respond to the pump as well so I was always told the amount you pump is way less than the amount you’re actually producing. When kids start solids your supply generally decreases but hormones might also play a part. I would talk to her pedi and see what they suggest! Always try to nurse before showing her the solids too.
