Freezer stash officially depleated!

I was only able to pump once at work today and as it is, DS eats more than I produce.  So I had to pull out my last bag of stashed milk so that I have enough for his 2 bottles of BM at DC    Crying

  • Can you pump on your way to or from work? Do you pump after the last night feed? I'm sorry.

  • Mine has been gone for about 2 weeks, and I'm starting to have to supplement at DC, usually only one bottle.  I can get extra during the weekend, but I am playing catch up most days.  And stressing about it does not help much, huh?  going to try lactation cookies again this weekend to boost the bubbies!
  • Sorry, I know how stressful that can be. I have found out that I pump more when I like massage my breasts and look at photos of my LO on my phone. I know it is kind of creepy but I seem to get like 3 to 4 more ounces a day when I do that.

  • Aww. It might be a temporary dip. Keep trying! Some days I randomly get several ounces less.

  • I was done to 12 oz out of 650 oz, I wasn't pumping at work but feeding her at my lunch. I rented the Symphony since my PISA seemed to decrease my output. I stopped dipping into the freezer. I can pump 4-5 oz instead of 2 with the PISA. I pump 3 times a day, still nurse at lunch and other times.
    Sorry no paragraphs, bumping from my phone.
    I once had a picture until the trolls showed up.

  • i already supplement and am ok with it, so he might just get more formula some days.  i can only produce what i can produce and i've accepted that.  i was stressing about it for awhile but that didn't help the situation so i bit the bullet and started with the formula - and he's been much happier since. 

    i have pumped in the car and will do it on my drive home if i miss a session during the day... iwas running late to get ds at dc yesterday & didn't have the extra time for setup & dismantle to pump in the car.

    thanks for the suggestions!
