I got pregnant at 9 months postpartum and am trying to continue breastfeeding until 1 year. I had an oversupply for the first 4 months and was doing very well with breastfeeding until I got pregnant. I’m less than 6 weeks pregnant and I’ve already blown through my freezer stash. Clearly my body is having a hard time keeping up with milk production.
I feel like I’m letting my baby down 😔 Would love any support or advice about how to increase my milk supply or when to consider supplementing with formula. My baby is eating solids (3 meals per day) for reference.

It’s hormonal so unfortunately you can’t control the loss of supply in pregnancy. By month 4 I’d completely dried up x

i got pregnant 7m pp and my baby weaned himself off at 11m, partially due to gradual supply drop and partially due to him eating more meals in the day
