Will I dry up???

Hi,
If I keep the morning breastfeed going after my LO is one, and only offer one boob per morning, will I be able to sustain bf for a bit longer? Anyone done this? Worried I will dry up...?

You'll be fine. I did one feed a day for quite a while. Your body is very adaptable.

Really?! Brilliant! Thanks for speedy response! And did you offer both boobs per feed or just one?

No, you won't dry up. I gave up bf in late Feb, was down to one/two feeds a day and had been for ages. I still had milk a couple of weeks ago. You'll be fine.

I did one feed a day for ages (one day on one, the next day on another I think). Was fine

I did one feed for a while with both of mine. One side mostly . I was a bit lopsided boob wise but it was fine Grin
