Mini pill supply issues?

Just had my 6 week appt and discussed birth control with my doctor. She said I could go on the mini-pill but it could decrease my milk supply. Has anyone noticed that happening?

 Which birth control method do you recommend while breastfeeding?

    I have been on the mini pill since my 6 week appointment and my son is 15 weeks old.  I have not noticed any dip in my supply.  It has worked well for us as BC so far as well and I have not had a PP AF yet.

    Personally, I think it did affect my supply.  I stopped taking it to see if it was the culprit to the fussiness and non-stop feeding spree.  After a couple of days, our BFing relationship was back to normal.  It could have just been a coincidence or a growth spurt but it wasn't worth the risk to me.

    We plan to use condoms until AF returns and I can learn to track my cycle.
