your body will make enough milk for your baby.have you tryed to express a bit of milk before putting baby to the b___st. your body may just not resupply because the baby doesnt get any in the first suckles and gives up, so your body doesnt think there is a demand for the milk. im not sure, but its worth a go

pump like crazy, pump in between and after every feeding. This should increase you supply.

I am always so full in the mornings you can really tell there's lots of milk. By bedtime it's not as obvious but there's still milk. Remember your b___st is never empty and if you just let the baby nurse as often as it wants you body will supply what milk is needed. How old is your baby? My three month old has started to get distracted while nursing. He pulls away to look at things all the time. I also read that some smart babies like to nurse for just a second then pull off and wait for mom to have milk let down then nurse again. Is you baby upset at night?

Do you ever bottle feed? I have the same problem but I've decided it's because I supplement with a bottle while he's at day care. I decided he was old enough for the fast flow nipple so if my b___sts aren't full and flowing fast he'll pull away and cry. I tried this weekend to only nurse or pump every 4 hours as I do during the week. If he's hungry b4 4 hours, he gets a bottle of expressed milk or formula. It's worked quite well today.
