Just had to share....

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I had low supply with DD#1 due to my breast reduction.  Things started out rocky with DD#2 but I ended up with a full supply.  Since I have gone back to work (at 8 weeks) my pumping output has dropped and dropped and I have even had to send a couple of formula bottles to daycare in the past month.  She co-sleeps and I know that helps.

 

Well, I went away on a "girls weekend" this past weekend and was gone for 2 full days.  I allowed myself to sleep through the night since I never do at home.  when I got home, I totalled up what I pumped and in 2 days I pumped 63oz!!!!!  I guess I don't have low supply.  I was shocked at how much she must be eating overnight based on what I pumped in the morning.  No wonder she is a chunker!   That is crazy since I was a little lax on the pumping and didn't do it as often as I should have. 

 

Just thought I would share with some people I thought might get how happy I am :)

That is so great!  What a relief to know that your supply is good.

 

This is why it is important to look at the whole baby, and not just a factor like how much you can pump when considering supply issues.
