decrease in pumped milk after starting BC pills ?

Just started a BC pill this week (Errin).  I am exclusively BFing, and I usually pump at least once a day.  Since I started the pill this week I've hardly been able to pump 1-2 oz! Typically I can pump at least 5  oz! 

Has this happened to anyone?  Any advice?

 

TIA!

  • Some people will find that even the mini pill will decrease your supply.  That is why we use condoms.

  • When I started the minipill, I also noticed a slight decrease in the amount I'm getting when pumping. I'm hoping that DS is still getting what he needs when BFing. I've been on jolivette for about 2 weeks now. GL
