Me and dd have had a rough few days with bf, and for various reasons I ended up giving her a few formula feeds, leading to an expected drop in my supply. We're both trying to get rid of thrush at the moment and working on building back up with the bf. since our issues started, dd seemed to be struggling with the left breast so I just fed her from the right and tried to pump the left, but now I'm not able to pump much more than a dribble each time. I keep trying to get her to feed from both sides again but it's as if she's not getting anything from that side either so I just try stick to the right, but sometimes that's not enough. Can anyone advise how to get my supply back up on both sides?
 
feed, feed, feed!!! and pump even when you're getting nothing. put away the bottle. I've read of people taking herbs like fenugreek and blessed thistle. look up info on kellymom.com about increasing supply.
