Thank you so much! All the posts are very helpful.

When he pulls off, usually he has a whole mouthful of milk spilling out (which actually looks very funny). As for his nappies - well, he's definitely not starving!! I haven't counted them, but there's usually a dirty one every feed, and a whole bunch of wet ones! He's gained his birthweight already, and outgrown his first onesie (a very emotional moment for me ).

I generally only feed him from one breast a feed, or will swap to the second one for a top up. I soaked through 3 cloth breast pads today... 'over supply' is a term I am becoming very familiar with.

So my plan is to express for a couple of minutes before each feed to try to calm the milk down before he gets drowned. I don't know how much milk I have sprayed around the loungeroom in the last few days, but I think we'll need the carpets cleaned within a month!

Thanks again. I'm feeling a little more relaxed. But it's still hard to cope with him screaming at me after he eats - I'm a fantastic cook, no one ever complains after I feed them!!
He's so wonderful in every other way. He sleeps really well, and I am really well rested. I just wish I could take some of that pain away for him.
