I'm expressing for ds and have been mix feeding as I have been struggling to express often enough whilst looking after a baby who doesn't really like being put down for more than 5 minutes. I was expressing 6 hourly and getting about 6oz each time which was ok and made up 2/3 of his feeds. When ds started sleeping through the night I tried to drop the night time expressing session and pump 4 hourly during the day. I've noticed a massive drop in supply though, and ds's appetite has increased as he's recently had a growth spurt. I'm now pumping minimum of 4 hourly day and night and taking fenugreek. Is there anything else I can do? I got less than 3oz last time I pumped.
