DS is 10 weeks tomorrow, due to various issues, that I won't go into here, we had early on I am exclusivley expressing for him. Up until last week we were going good guns, supply was good, I had managed to get the pumping sessions down to 4 a day and was producing more than enough and freezing about 5ish ounces a day.
Now I'm just about getting enough to do his feeds for the day. He has increased to 6 ounces a feed though, which probably means I'm still producing the same as I was, but I can't seem to get my supply to go up. The thought of having to pump more really makes me want to give up, but the thought of not giving him my BM makes me sad. He's going to keep getting biger and needing more and I keep thinking how am I going to cope with that.
I'm not sure what I want all you lovely ladies to tell me or advise me. I just need a bit of a rally I think.
I had a big chat with DH last night about it and he is behind me 100% whatever I decide, but secretly I think I want someone to make the decision for me. Am I making sense???
Kick me up the arse please ladies, i need to snap out of this frame of mind quick.
