So this is going to be a long post. I've got some things I've been wondering for a while but my brain is kicking my ass today and this is probably going to come out kind of jumbled. When it comes to supplements and Dom, i know your supply will drop some when you stop taking them, it's kind of just how it works but, if you're trying to get a decent supply is it better to use them more heavily to make more before weaning off of them or since it'll make your supply drop off once you're done with them is it better to just take a small amount the entire time so you have less to wean off. On a similar note would pumping less while taking supplements/Dom but then increasing the duration & frequency as you wean off then make it so your supply drops less? Another similar note, when it comes to pumping should you do more in the beginning regardless of how much you're making? Like I know the more you pump the more you make at least theoretically but wouldn't it make sense to start small then pump more as you make more? Like see how much you can make doing X amount of pumping then once it plateaus adding more pump time. Don't babies eat more as they get older? I feel like that makes sense for some reason. Or is it better to just pump as much as you can from the beginning? I'll be really honest I started this journey last year just for fun but this time, yeah I'm doing it for fun somewhat it's also partly serious both for my medical health but also because my Aunt is pregnant with a miracle baby but she has had issues with milk production in the past. No one else in my family is still lactating (youngest kid is 4 right now) and I'd like to be able to help her and maybe even other with donations.(I literally stopped smoking cigs just for this, 2 months clean woohoo!) But I'd like to be weaned off most supplements and maybe even Dom by the time her LO get here in 5 months because I know some of them can cause tummy issues in babies. So basically any and all advice on growing your supply naturally would be super super appreciated. Thanks to anyone who read this and have a wonderful day!!
