Hi and hello!
Hope all is well mamas

this may get long...
It's been a trying couple weeks as my 10 month old has had RSV and for some reason my boobs have been pancakes.
He has only had breastmilk "from the tap" and sometimes in his cup with meals. But since getting sick he has been refusing all solids and the cup most of the time.
I've had an oversupply my entire breastfeeding experience. Now, for some reason (talk about timing) I find that my chest consistently is soft and the let downs are few and far between. I watch him nurse and nurse but hear little swallowing. It's been a lot of coaxing to get him to drink/or eat at all.
I just finished my period (second one pp) last Saturday and have had this low supply business since around Sunday.
I've been offering every couple hours (vs our every 4-5 hours before illness) I've been drinking over 100oz of water, pumping multiple times a day(right after he nurses) eating oatmeal and almonds and power pumping once a day. Still, flat boobie...
Any thoughts, tips, commiseration?
Could they just be drying up?
Could stress really do this?
Aye aye aye...
Tia, you ladies are the best
