Milk Supply

My daughter is 6 months and my supply has completely dropped. I was always a just enougher and now I’m barely making 20oz a day. Can anyone tell me how to boost my supply?

U have to drink enough water and start pumping every 2 hours. That will stimulate the breast to release more milk

I drink about 2 Stanley cups full of water a day how much more would you say I need to drink?

Ok do u pump every 2 hours even if you don't have much coming out. That will stimulate it

I don’t I used to but since she stopped eating every 2 hours I usually just pump every 3-4

I usually “power pump” every time I pump, so if I start pumping every 2 hours how long should I pump?

how much were you drinking? And how were you preparing it?

Drinking body armour helps me because of the coconut water in it, or liquid iv, and then adding brewers yeast into your diet by baking it into cookies or something helps a ton! Along with oats! Those help with supply too. I have a couple recipes with brewers yeast in them where you can’t taste it if you want!

I would love some recipes! I have only done brewers yeast in my overnight oats and it’s good in there but I either don’t put enough brewers yeast or don’t eat enough of the oats a day I’m not sure
