Are you latching in between? And are you drinking enough fluids, eating well and getting enough rest? Are you stressed? All these can affect the milk supply. From a mum that fed and pumped for both kids, all I can say is, do this breastfeeding/pumping in a way that brings you fulfilment and joy. Don’t stress out about occasional dips. Take care of yourself. It’s okay if you don’t pump in exact intervals.. give yourself a break sometimes, and enjoy your baby and enjoy motherhood:) there were sooo many times when I wasn’t producing much, and then suddenly when I held/thought of my baby, more milk came from an empty breast. You’re doing a great job! Remember to rest too:)
