Is it possible?

I had my baby boy 7 months ago on the 19th of this month. I was exclusively pumping, and it was going great for a while (about 5 months), but then I had a dramatic drop off. I went from pumping 4-5oz every 3ish hours to 1-1.5oz every 2-3hours. I wasn't making enough to feed my son, so after a month of trying everything I could think of, and my supply still getting lower and lower, I started him on formula. I drank water constantly, coconut water, oatmeal with coconut oil mixed in in the morning, and before i went to bed. I power pumped at least once a day sometimes twice everyday for about a month. Pump princess supplements, the cookies, increasing my calories, adding more protein to my diet, adding more physical activity (walking through the park 3 times a week) and even with all that when I decided to switch him to formula I was producing drops, less than an ounce for the whole day.

To my question. I haven't pumped in over a month, and the guilt I feel sometimes because I completely stopped pumping, and didn't keep trying gets to me. My other son (5 years old) started kindergarten a few weeks ago, and I have a lot more free time, and I'm less stressed not having 2 kids all day, so I was wondering If it was possible for me to get my supply back after not pumping for as long as i have?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
