(PTP) I have a mom of a 4 month old who really wanted to nurse this baby
(2nd baby) especially after first had “reflux” and terrible “allergy”
issues with formula. She was doing well, even had a little oversupply at 2
months so I had her cut out pumping and just nurse. Kicking myself now
because she returned to work a month ago and has struggled to pump even
1-1/2 oz total for the day while away from baby. She has hypothyroid and
we’ve chased her levels (up and down) for months. She is now in the normal
range, but milk supply is further dwindling. She is currently pumping on
average 9-11 times in 24 hours and begging to take supplements especially
Fenugreek but I see that it is a “no” with thyroid issues? She’s tried
fennel, blessed thistle raspberry leaf and dill with no increase.
Suggestions? Thoughts on thyroid issue?
