Eye on the Supply

So now that I have been pumping ALOT, I have a visual on my breast milk. Some days I pump out 25 oz somedays 18oz. This makes me want to panic, but I won't . Well, maybe I won't. It's hard not to think that I might be making less than I should or that she may someday run out. But my personal lactation consultant ( me) tells me that I am fine and stop thinking about it. My little princess is fine at the breast and is always satisfied. Now I need to teach husband that every drop I pump is important. Last night I came home and he had started feeding her. 5oz bottle! Of which she only took two oz!!! So were did that three oz. go? Down the drain!! I am beginning to see why women call it a milk stash. It is to be kept preserved and perfect and only touched when needed. So after a quick late night lesson on my milk supply I think my husband is on board.  But I will keep you posted
