Sudafed

I'm 13 months postpartum and exclusively pump 3x/day. I've tried the "natural" ways to diminish my supply with no results (cabbage leaves, eating peppermints, dried sage). I still make around 24 oz. Sudafed was my last resort. How often do I take it? Can I give this milk to my daughter?

    I'm confused. The best way to diminish your supply is to reduce demand.  gradually reduce the amount of time you pump and then drop one pumping session at a time.  Do NOT pump until you empty your breasts, otherwise they will just keep thinking they need to make more milk.

    If you keep pumping 3 times a day, sudafed isn't going to be very helpful
