    Willow, I am so glad that he is feeding better now. It is the best feeling when they start to feed well again, I remember it well. You are doing such a great job hun, I am quite sure you will be able to bf for as long as you want to.

    Thanks Melanie and Sez!

    He was a bit of a booby monster yesterday, he had 3 feeds in about 1.5 hrs before going to bed, in the end he was getting very frustrated because my let down couldn't keep up! I ended up giving him to DH to cuddle while I expressed what i could and gave him about 60mls in a bottle. He went to sleep after that.

    I think my supply might have dropped off a little due to the strike so am trying to feed him more often and express when I can. Not too stressed about it, supply and demand right? It'll get back to where it needs to be soon I figure.

    It will be back to where it needs to be in no time Willow! You're right, just keep offering him feeds (it doesn't sound like he will refuse them ATM LOL) and express when you can (without stressing yourself out).

    You're doing great hun!
