hi all... up until like 1.5-2 months ago i was breastfeeding my son who is 6 months now... we had been supplementing because i wasn't producing enough milk to satisfy him... and it came down to where all he wanted to do was nurse at night and wouldnt' nurse at all during the day.. i didnt' mind.. then he started to sleep through the night.. and i figured he's done with me... so i stopped pumping and attempting to nurse.. but now in the last couple of days now that i've finally dried up he's been wanting to nurse again at night...i have blessed thistle on hand.. and fenugreek is only a car ride away... also still have my pump...but my concern is.. is it too late? i'm very willing to give it a second go around even if it's just for night time feedings or even more.. i love to breastfeed... knowing that i'm giving him the best that he can get. and also now we're starting to notice that he's VERY gassy... and besides having a cold isn't wanting to eat from the bottle... we're lucky if we get 3oz in him right now.. when he was taking in 5-6oz every two hours when awake... so if anyone out there has any advice i thank you in advance!!!!!!!!!

How long has it been since you nursed him? It's not too late, here is a good link for relactation boot camp: www.fourfriends.com/abrw
