Can't express volumes I did 2 months ago

My 18wo is EBF. I used to express each morning between the 7 and 10 feeds for DP to do a night feed. Now I actually find it easier to do that feed myself so I dropped the expressing to once or twice per week.

In the last 5 or 6 days I've ramped up the expressing to daily again because I'm out and about a bit and would like DP to do the odd feed when I'm not available. But I just can't get as much now. I used to get 170/180ml easily and now I struggle to get 100-120 - it's much slower, and that's from both boobs now rather than one!! I thought after a week my body would have caught up but now I'm wondering if it ever will?

Was always a hopeless expresser but thought I'd bump for you Smile.
