Congratulations on the little pink bundle![]()
Gemma all of mine were b/f 2 hourly around the clock at that age and sometimes it feels like bub is permanantly attached but that is what they need to do to get your supply built up. Expressing doesn't always get as much as what bub can get.
I agree with Sez that if bub is waiting 4 - 5 hourly after a f/f it could affect your supply waiting that long. It is supply and demand afterall. Perhaps if bub is asleep for that time then express 2 hourly even if yu are only getting a little bit. The most I could get out was 20mls and that is logical as bub only has a tiny tummy at one week old.
Keep a good eye on the output. If there is plenty of wet and dirty nappies then plenty is going in. That was my mantra!
I took fenugreek and drank Aktivite also.
Call me if you need![]()
