Breastmilk!!!

I'm 24weeks 2nd baby, and I'm worried because with my first baby I produced enough milk but stopped at 6months because I would produce less and less for my son. Now,  I'm planning on going full term with this babygirl on breastfeeding but do u ladies have any tips or advice on how to produce enough milk for a whole year?

A lot of the time it feels like your production decreases around 6 months, this is usually when your body starts adjusting to what your baby needs. Many women think since they no longer get engorged that they have lost their supply, not true though. The way you introduce solids can however decrease your supply, its important to nurse baby before feeding them any solids this helps keep your supply up and baby still gets to experience real food.
