Dear Rufalina,

The only problem you have is that the Maternal and child health nurse just scuttled your confidence!
If you had walked into my clinic I would be reassuring you that his feeding pattern was absolutely normal and that you were doing a great job - look how beautifully he is growing.
It's a sad state of affairs when you walk into a Health professionals office proud and full or confidence and walk out with a problem
Sometimes we just don't know *normal* when we see it.
Mothers generally do have an abundant supply for their baby in the first weeks. And babies grow quickly. If you look at the WHO charts you will notice that babies are designed to grow more quickly in the first weeks than the current charts indicate.
Over time your prolactin levels drop to a fairly normal level, and your milk supply settles to meet your baby's requirements more exactly. His growth rate slows - normal!
I wouldn't be expressing why bother when you have a good strong baby. Don't stress too much about foremilk and hindmilk - if it comes out of your boob it's fine. You are giving him a great start.
