Supply dip around 7 months?

Has anyone else experienced a supply dip around 7 months? The past few days, I'm getting 1-2 ounces less per pumping session. I stay ahead of DD by also continuing to pump first thing in the morning, but I'm still wondering why this is happening. The only thing that I can think that has changed is I'm trying to exercise more. Perhaps I need to go back to eating lactation cookies Big Smile

    I only made it to 6 months, but I couldn't do anything extra physically. I went for a walk one day, leisure, about thirty minutes, and my supply tanked for two days. That was the end of exercise for me!

    Well, exercising more could easily do it. Particularly if you aren't eating enough to make up for it.
