It depend on individual. I had first menses 6 months but just abit, it didn't affect me. 2nd was 10 month pp super heavy, it didn't affect too.

You can take some oats biscuits or milo or barley it helps to boost my milk.

Only temporarily. Calcium/magnesium supplements may be helpful

It also means that baby starts to wean. Another milestone unlocked.
