Has anyone been through this? My supply recently reduced drastically (possibly due to a bad virus we both had) and usual measures aren't working. Tried frequent feeds, pumping, Fenugreek, smoothies etc. Also now on Motilium for 2 days. I would love advice on how to make it less stressful for her.
Currently we feed to drowsy or sleep so it is going to be a very big change and I feel awful. I know it is not right to stop BF suddenly, and we are both distressed. We were having good progress on putting her down awake, but this illness combined with lots of new motor skills has put paid to that, now she screams when put down in cot and I've been co-sleeping to get some sleep and comfort her.
When should I just stop and change to formula? Should I try to keep at least one feed or just stop? Should I let her try to nurse anyway? How can I manage nap and bed times? Any other advice?
