Hello:
I haven't really been measuring my supply since I'm breastfeeding baby each time. But I just pumped this time at 6:00 p.m. and I made 1/2 ounce.

I weaned off dom, last week was the last dose. I'm taking Fenuegreek, Blessed Thistle capsules, drinking Mother's Milk tea, eating Steel-Cut oatmeal every day and drinking plenty of water. I'm pumping from 4 - 6 times per day.

I will try to measure this next 24 hours to see what I make. Then hope to increase my supply by pumping more. It dropped down from 1 ounce per pumping session right after I quit the dom. I hope to bring it back up.

I can get Fenuegreek in bulk supply so my cost is low. I had to cut back on buying the dom to save cost.

Baby is doing well. She's 3 months old and 12 pounds or so. She enjoys breastfeeding and easily switches from breast to bottle. So I'm lucky to have a good latch and good draw from my breasts.

I'll let you know the progress after I measure at this time. And then again after one week of increased pumping.

Thanks for all of your advice!
