My son was in the NICU for 2 months because he came out at 32 weeks. (He is okay! Just an early baby!)
But two weeks before he came home I got really sick. My milk supply really weakened after I got better. My left boob is now only producing about a third of what it used too.
I’m getting really discouraged.
On top of my baby having a milk protein allergy, I have gone completely dairy-free and he is on a half and half Mommy milk and formula diet. (I am a pumping exclusive Mommy.)
I don’t really want to quit giving him Mommy milk but it’s so sad only being able to express 2-3oz per pumping sesh.
Does anyone have any advice that could help my milk supply go back to normal? Or some encouragement to not give up on my pumping journey?
Thank you in advance! ![]()
