DD is 13 months. She had double ear infections and I had strep over the weekend. My supply tanked. Monday, at work, I was able to pump just over half what I usually do. I know I don't have to pump anymore but she's not a big eater and only like cow's milk with chocolate (that was a daddy oops :)). At this late date, is my supply able to recover or are we picking up speed on weaning? :(

Plenty of fluids, eat oatmeal, and offer the breast to her more often. You could also try a weekend in bed (and let her have unlimited access to nursing).

There is no reason for you to wean this early if you don't want to. :)
