I do not think that: The allergy shots are affecting your milk supply. I would talk to your pediatrician for other suggestions regarding your nursing. Good luck.

No effect: No effect from allergy shots on milk production, but what medications are you taking? Anthistamines can dry you up.

Not related: It is doubtful that allergy shots are related to breast feeding problems. Be sure to eat well balanced diet and drink plenty of fluids. See your doctor if problems continue.

Fenugreek : Increase your water intake, try 2 weeks of fenugreek supplements and nurse your baby more frequently throughout the day. These thing will boost milk supply. Stop any antihistamines if you are taking them. Also, there are lots of good lactation cookie recipes online.
