I think I'm at the stage where I'm going to have to use EBM and FF top ups for bubba as she does not want to attach anymore. I see an LC on Wednesday but until then I'm trying to work out my options.

I WAS able to express about 80ml in a sitting (mind you I havent been consistent expressing on a timetable or anything) but today my supply was lower with about 40-50ml in a sitting.

As an experiment tonight I gave DD 35ml of EBM and then a 120ml FF to see how much she'd drink. I thought it would give me an indication, based on her previous feeds where she had the breast and then i topped her up, how much she was actually getting from me. However, she has drunk about 140ml tonight so I'm wondering if that is about average, or high for a 6 week old?? I know today has been hot so also considered that maybe as the weather has been warmed she was just extra thirsty..

Would love to hear from other mama's who are EBM/FF their bubbas how much they drink...
