EC and BFing

I just wanted to share, and really, this is the only place I know of where others may understand. :)

I have been having significant supply issues, and LO recently went 20 days without gaining weight between his 2 and 4 month check ups.  I'm working with my LC, and he has started gaining again, and even catching up, so that's good.

While I've been dealing with having to pump and supplement bottles of BM after most feedings, I haven't been very diligent with ECing.  LO's cues just didn't seem to be there, and my attention has been on the Great Breastmilk Crisis of Summer 11.  

However, I finally got Diaper Free from the library, and have been in bed with LO most of today reading it.  Mostly just nursing and peeing, and peeing and nursing.  I found that after only a few hours, we were right back on stride, and...drum roll please...my supply went up!
