I purchased some lactation snacks and supplements in hope of increasing my supply. Right now it takes me a full 8 hour shift to get only about 5-6 oz for the next day at daycare. It will only get her through one to two bottles which she needs at least 3 at daycare. When I don’t work its even harder as she usually pretty much drains my entire supply while nursing at home. In short, breastfeeding is HARD WORK. And this email almost brought me to tears. I still count and matter and I’m doing my best to give my daughter the food she deserves. Of course after nursing right now she even needs formula so I feel guilty and it SUCKS. I wish I was enough for my daughter. I’ve consulted with lactation specialists, basically told me to pump round the clock. That’s so so hard guys. Especially at night. I will keep doing my best Amelia, and to Diana, I’m sorry mommy didn’t try harder the first time but know I would do anything to change that. It wasn’t right for us then, and I hope you still know how much mommy loves you. 💔 #breastfeedingjourney #ineedyoursupport #pumpingishardworktoo https://www.instagram.com/p/CbVrevqODsn/?utm_medium=tumblr
