I’ve seen a dip in my supply as well. I’m not sure what I did or what happened to it, but I was gradually increasing day-to-day and now I’m barely making enough for a full feed for my baby. Really disappointed as I’m not sure what to do.

Can be because Bub prefers one side to the other. But my right breast is always more full. My first born only ate from right side after 6 months and I was lopsided for 2 years 😂 Not sure of advice other than maybe feed first on lower side and offer more feeds? I think it’s quite common

I have added a 3/4am power pump on my slacker left side recently and it seems to be working to up the supply. I don't pump any other time I just let her feed directly and I always get her to start on the left side and then just top her up with the right side to try and even them out a bit.

Pumping more on the low side helped me :)
