With my first I pumped more while on maternity leave so I had more of a stash. With my second I just didn't care enough to pump to build a stash because I hate pumping so I had to start supplementing a lot sooner but you know what, it was okay. I didn't and still don't stress about it. My baby is growing and is happy to take either breastmilk or formula. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-supply-for-subsequent-kids#post-1981249 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 21:08:30 +0000 Orchid 1981249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have 1 child, but when I was battling with oversupply the LC told me I'd have even more milk with any other child because you grow more breast tissue when pregnant. It wasn't happy to hear that at the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-supply-for-subsequent-kids#post-1981226 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 20:58:09 +0000 matador84 1981226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Low supply with LO1, I struggled the whole first year. I feel like a cow for LO2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-was-your-supply-for-subsequent-kids#post-1981045 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 20:30:00 +0000 regberadaisy 1981045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DD 1 had low supply no matter what I did or ate to boost my supply. Supplementing with formula was a common occurrence.<br /> This time around my supply is much better! I'm producing enough to sustain DD 2 and even occasionally pumping extra to freeze! :shocked: </p>
