Also, if you do need to rest because you are sore try to pump to keep it up if you're missing a feeding! </p> aunt pol on "Can supply dry up in one boob before the other?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-supply-dry-up-in-one-boob-before-the-other#post-174173 Thu, 31 May 2012 07:49:16 +0000 aunt pol 174173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks girls, I'll put the little savage back on it now when she arrives:) </p> aunt pol on "Can supply dry up in one boob before the other?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-supply-dry-up-in-one-boob-before-the-other#post-174172 Thu, 31 May 2012 07:48:04 +0000 aunt pol 174172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks girls, I'll put the little savage back on it now when she arrives:) </p> cvbee on "Can supply dry up in one boob before the other?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-supply-dry-up-in-one-boob-before-the-other#post-174162 Thu, 31 May 2012 07:28:05 +0000 cvbee 174162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>agree with blushink....got to get that breast back into production....it's a supply-demand machine, so you need to just demand some more from it </p> Mrs. Sunglasses on "Can supply dry up in one boob before the other?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-supply-dry-up-in-one-boob-before-the-other#post-174156 Thu, 31 May 2012 07:19:13 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 174156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Drink water and give the right breast first. Having the baby suck on it will increase demand.

I got two ounces from my left breast and less than half an ounce from my right. Is this something to worry about? Will it recover if I persevere? </p>
