    Question What should my boobs feel like?

    DS 2 is almost 2 weeks old & so far the BF is going great it has been soooo much easier than last time. He feeds well, attaches great & feeds regularly through the day. I'm just starting to stress my supply is dropping off........I'm not sure really. He's been sleeping around 6hrs at night already. So my question is, what should my boobs feel like?? they just feel all floppy like they used to LOL. Is that how they should feel?? or should they be hard & full am I stressing over nothing?? help.

    Hun, it sounds like everything is going really well. If he is feeding regularly and having at least 5 wet nappies a day then he is getting enough. Some mums feel full between feeds in the early days and others don't. It sounds to me like your boobs exactly the way they should. Keep up the great work!
