Default breastfeeding and contraceptive pill- does it affect the milk supply?

I am only 22 wks but I am lookig to go back on the birth control pill after it as I have also a 8 month old. Before pregnancy I used Yasmin it agreed with my body as other pills did not- but i'm wondering if anybody has experienced it through breast feeding and will it reduce my milk supply, or do you have any knowledge on it? Thankyou to all that answer.

There is a special pill called the mini pill which they give to mothers who plan on breast feeding. It does not contain as much of a hormone as the other pills but works as just as effective

yes some will, let your ob know that you plan on breastfeeding. There are two brands of pills that will not dry you up.
