My supply has been decreasing the last couple weeks. I've started drinking my nursing tea again, but so far it hasn't helped. It is particularly noticeable in my left boob; it just feels floppy all the time. If I could have a conversation with lefty, it would go something like this...
Dear Lefty,
I notice that you've been feeling down lately. Please don't dwell on the fact that you've always lagged behind righty - rather focus on how we need you. You can't give up on us now. Chin up, fill up, and I won't have to dip into my freezer stash to feed Carina.
I know you're depressed because you haven't seen fancy lingerie since before the baby was born. Day in and day out you're squished up against a scratchy breast pad surrounded by a nursing bra or tank. Certainly not at the height of fashion, I agree. If you step it up, I promise to buy you the most extravagant unmentionables that I can find once we are no longer breastfeeding.
I assume you're bitter that you didn't grow at all during or after my pregnancy. I felt that twinge of jealousy you had when pregnant friend after pregnant friend bragged about their burgeoning bosoms. You were hoping for some additional boobage, I know. I'm so sorry that you are the same size today that you were before. Truly. I wish there was something I could do to help you out there, but sadly I cannot. Just know that I commiserate.
Lovingly,
Mama G
Anyone else have this problem around 8-9 months? Did anything work to increase your supply?
