I've been stressing out all week because after I had the stomach bug last week, my supply dropped and I've been pumping very little. Just today I pumped 4oz in one session and 5oz in my second session! That's enough for 2+ bottles!! I was starting to think we were going to have to go to whole milk sooner rather than later. PHEW! The girls are coming back!
Have you come back from a supply dip(s)?

Mine is always going up and down. Usually Mondays are very low and by Friday they're flowing like waterfalls. I think it's because I take the weekends off.

YAY! So glad it came back up for you!
I'm stuck in progressive supply dip hell.

I'm just coming back from a supply dip after a stomach bug, too! I was so worried there for a while. Along with not eating and being so dehydrated I also ended up in meetings for two days after I started feeling better so I couldn't pump as long as I normally would.
One week and some Mother's Milk Plus tea later and I'm back to normal.

I did! I had a huge dip after my monthlong bout of mastitis when DD was 4 months old. It took a lot of MMT and MMP plus oatmeal like I've never eaten oatmeal before to bring it back. I was sooooo relieved when it came back!!!
