i agree - that's a whole lotta supplements! as far as i understand it, what you eat is more about keeping you healthy rather than increasing supply. there is a recipe for lactation cookies floating around somewhere & alot of people seem to have had success with them. i've tried them & even if they don't help with supply, they're yummy!

how old is your DS?

i just wanted to say - don't beat yourself up for going off the rails. i'm no expert but it seems that supply can be increased even after a significant break in regular feeding. it's incredibly tough sometimes to find a balance between being mum & being yourself & i reckon it would be even tougher without a partner to give you support.

good luck - let us know how you go
