I am pumping about 27oz a day and baby is drinking about 26oz a day.  I am fearing that I am not going to be able to come up with enough of a supply for her (storage in freezer).  I have started Oatmeal and have looked into vitamins but I am worried and don’t know what I should or shouldn’t do. 

My best friend had been pumping exclusively with her first baby and she managed to get up to 8oz from one breast at one sitting without eating, drinking or taking any special vitamins.  The highest I have hit is 7oz. after BOTH sides.  She was up to 900oz in the freezer when she finally started to wheen off the pump. 

I don’t know if it is important or not but I got back my period when baby turned 2 months.  Would that affect my milk supply?

I need help, how do I increase my milk supply to start storing some of it?
