    I nursed my son for 12 months and the only way I was a able to keep up my supply was to have a minimum of 64 oz of water a day. Water was key for me. I coul d always tell on Mondays that my supply was down because I had drank less water on the weekends vs. during the week. So on monday I'd drink 100oz to get my water back up and my Tuesday morning my supply was back up as well.

    I also took Fenugreek which helped me a lot as well. Especially when I returned to worked and was having to pump 3x's a day vs only nursing. So, Fenugreek & water my 2 best friends that 1st year.

    Good luck with your journey!

    I'm with you... I always have lower supply on Mondays... Shows how good I am over the weekends, huh. Haha...
