    Completely normal - your breasts have worked out what they're doing and how much milk to make. You might find that if DD has a big sleep your breasts become hard again.

    Hi,

    You've answered your own question - you know it's normal! Your breasts are working beautifully, still, it's worth asking the question as this is something many mums worry about

    You are doing really well - and you should have comfy boobs by now.

    Just an advance warning though - over the next few weeks you may find that there are a few days when missy feeds most of the time and it seems as though your supply has dropped. This happens to many Mums of 4-5 month old bubs (I was on the phone to the ABA concerned about my supply even though I usually had oversupply issues). Your supply won't have dropped, your bub will just be growing and asking for more - and if you feed her when she wants it over those few days you will make more in response.

    Yeah, I found that last week actually. Missy fed ALL DAY one day and then slept the next few days - growth spurt!!!

    Thanks hun xxxx
