Breast feeding: You should have enough milk to keep your baby happy.

Maybe,maybe not: The best way to assure good breast flow is to maintain regular stripping of existing production. Some are able to drop day feeds and maintain production and some are not. If there is a chance to pump and store it during the day it may help keep up flow and may reduce the chance your body will decide you are weaning.It could also increase babies breast milk intake.
