dip in supply around period

If you saw a dip in your supply around your period, how long did it last?  My supply (at least for my pumping sessions) seemed to drop in half starting on Sunday and got my first PP period yesterday (Tues).  How long can I expect this to last?

    I think probably everyone is different, but for me it goes down for the week beforehand and then immediately rebounds once AF starts.  I think some people have more of an issue during AF.

    I dipped prior to af. It rebounded before the end of the bleeding. The dip told me af was 2-3 days away.

    It dips the week before, then the 2nd day of AF it starts to go back up but takes a few days....so it dips for a week or so.  It really sucks.  It never bounces back all the way.
