BREASTFEEDING mommies

tubes26

Hi our LO is now 6 months old and just began soft pureed foods. I have fortunately been able to breastfeed him up til now but have noticied a huge decrease in my milk production even though I am still taking fenugreek tablets. Any other moms experiencing this? Does this occur bc menstruation returns? I still feed the same I just provide pureed foods to our LO after his breastfeeding session. when I pump I barely get much milk now too...Any suggestions as to how to keep milk production? thank you!!!

I'm sorry. 

Oatmeal, water, Fenugreek, water, and of course more water is helpful to boost supply. I will add that my supply always crashed about 1-2 days before my period started with my first child and would stay low until a day or 2 after my cycle finished. I would pound the water and oatmeal and my supply always returned. 

**When my supply returned, I would actually started to pump an extra time each day so I would have extra milk in the freezer for the following month.
