i know that pumping yields are not commensurate with a baby's intake, but while i used to yield 5 ozs or more for my 8 week old, i'm down to 3 ozs or less. i'm wondering if the fact that I have a cold has anything to do with it. she's a little stuffy, as well, so maybe she's not able to suck as well. she's not acting hungry after nursing, but i'm paranoid that my production is decreasing anyway.

any thought?

thanks!
olivia
