Hi there,

I am an exclusive expresser and get blocked ducts every 2-3 weeks. I was getting them when I was trying to BF as well, so no change there.

I've just had a duct clear (yesterday afternoon) as they usually do but my supply from that breast is really, really low...almost nothing. I am on all the usual things to support my supply (fenugreek, blessed thistle and motilium) and have been for about a month. Motilium worked wonders! I've also been on the breast pump every 2 hours during the day whilst I've had the blockage and since it cleared.

The breast that is very low in supply is usually my 'work horse' and usually produces a significant amount of milk compared to the other. I am now having to dip into my freezer stash to ensure I can feed DS.

Does anyone know if my supply will pick up now that the duct has cleared and how long does it take? I'm getting a bit nervous.

Thanks
