Off day for pumping?

Is it possible to just have an off day for pumping?  I usually make 11 to 13 oz while at work and today I made 8.  I was off schedule and super stressed and then had to pump in my car because the office I went to didn't have a place for me to go.  I'm hoping it was just a one off day ...

  • I have off days too, especially if I'm stressed or sick. Hopefully tomorrow it will be back to normal.

  • I have those days when I'm stressed, which makes me more stressed. It sucks. I'm sorry. Hopefully you are great tomorrow.

  • I was so stressed at work I was pumping half if not less than normal. I took the rest of the week off. ha!

    Yes, there are definitely off days and weeks. Environment and stress totally effect output.
