DD2 is almost 1 year old? She was born at 33 weeks and we really struggled to get feeding established. She came out of SCBU on bottles of expressed milk and I worked really hard to get her breastfeeding. We have battled through thrush, hospital admissions and multiple cuts. She hasn't taken to solids well and still likes to breastfeed. I am more than happy to continue BUT my husband and I separated in February and he has been having the DCs overnight for 2 nights every 2 weeks. He has them now and I'm struggling to express milk. I'm expressing for the third time today and I've expressed 4oz total. I don't want to stop breastfeeding but I just don't seem to have enough milk now. I've been feeling as though I've not had enough milk for DD2 recently and the pump has just confirmed it. What can I do? Is my only option to give up? I'm already taking fenugreek.
