My LO had been sucking me dry and I’m not able to pump anything. When I do pump she’s wants to eat right when I get done and I have nothing. What are ways to get my supply back up? I’m able to pump less than 3 oz now and I was getting 5-7oz each time.

My boob has been hurting/warm and isn’t pumping as much output. It’s been a few days and nothing is working. I’ve done warm water soaks, massages and I keep pumping. I also had COVID so idk if my flu like symptoms were only from that or not .Should I ask for an antibiotic/go in?
