My morning pumps are my saviors, haha. They were normal this morning, so I'm hoping that everything will continue to be fine. I think drinking enough liquids is crucial, especially when sick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2102044 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:47:03 +0000 snowjewelz 2102044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I hope it doesn't take too much of a hit! My morning pump is the best too.. I try to just get as much as I can since my next two sessions are never great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2102036 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:42:46 +0000 Adira 2102036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erwoo: @MenagerieMama: @erind425: Thanks ladies! I drank a ton of OJ this morning, so I'm hoping the boost of Vitamin C will help me recover more quickly.</p> <p>@snowjewelz: Not yet, but it's just the beginning of a cold and I've only pumped a couple times so far (and mornings are always my best output anyway). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2102015 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:36:13 +0000 jape14 2102015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gatorade!

Also saline rinse or neti pot for your nose. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2101932 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 08:53:14 +0000 Adira 2101932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Thanks! &lt;3</p> <p>Also, I hate pumping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2101861 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 08:19:27 +0000 autumnlove 2101861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Extra pumping even when I knew I wouldn't get a lot of milk. I hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-diddo-you-maintain-your-supply-when-sick#post-2101773 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 07:16:26 +0000 Adira 2101773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm coming down with a cold and I know that will affect my supply. What do you do to help maintain your supply when you're sick (or help it recover after)? </p>
