Hi - bit of a sad story but..
was wondering if I can call on the advice of some of Mumsnet's BF experts. I was exclusively bf ds. About three weeks ago noticed my supply had dropped right off ( ds screaming after 2 mins on breast (both sides), breasts not feeling in the slightest bit heavy or full etc) and I found out the cause of this was that I was pregnant ( an accident - my and DH's stupid fault - fell into the breastfeeding trap..). DS only 3 months old. Have since lost the baby unfortunately. I am however desperate to regain my former breastfeeding strength, as I have had to supplement ds with lots of formula for the last few weeks. He is a big boy - 15lbs 11oz at 14 weeks. I battled hard with mastitis in the first few weeks and ds and I came out the other side happy breastfeeders, and really dont want to carry on with formula feeding if poss. Should my hormone levels return to normal and bm supply return if I keep feeding him as often as possible? He goes through the night, but should I be waking him to feed to get supply back? Any help at this horrid time would be appreciated. Sorry for such a long post. Many thanks.
