My breast milk supply keeps dropping significantly Everytime I think about ending the “situationship” with my daughters dad.
(We were bf & gf but he broke up with me cause he’s been feeling depressed and has a lot of complicated life situations happening to him and thinks I’m not a “safe place” to express it
he says he still loves me but we live separately now. Intimacy with him or thoughts about him loving me increases my milk supply
everytime I entertain him or think there is hope for us my milk supply increases even more
What should I do !!
(Stay delusional for a little while so my milk supply can increase? lol)

honestly if that’s what it is then yea you gotta produce that milk sista ! i would talk to a professional though to see if there’s any underlying issues and see how to resolve that

Wut? That can happen? Well I guess stress can tank your supply

Your mental health is more important.. he sounds like a wuss. He sould be with his family. Life with a baby is hard. If he can't take it, let him f off. You should stop stressing yourself about him. If it's affecting your supply it is what it is. Use formula. A fed baby is a healthy baby. A happy mom, means happy baby. Think about your baby, not him. Your love and happiness towards your baby should also help your supply, but you're stressing yourself too much over him.
Your baby is the priority right now

That happened to me and I made a dunk with oatmeal, milk, cinnamon and vanilla and I drink it daily. Now I pump 6 oz per pump session; it took a couple of days to kick in but drink it daily and it’ll help it helped me
