Hello,
I had a nasty bout of mastitis about a month ago, which cleared with antibiotics and lots of feeding, but I feel like my supply is less since? I know expressing isn't a true indication for supply, but I could regularly get 8-9 oz from that boob before, but now struggle to get 5? Molly has dropped a milk feed now she is weaning, and is feeding 4 times a day (for a long time!), and my instinct is that there is less milk from that side.
It could be coincidental, and nothing to do with the mastitis, or could be to do with less feeds, but my instinct is that my supply is decreasing, particularly on that side. Or, has just not picked up again.
Anyone had a similar experience?
