marcellus - I breastfeed at the first morning and last evening feeds. He has a HUGE booby first thing in the morning - I feed him until he gluts out, and then express more if I can. The couple of mornings I haven't been able to bf (because I have to leave too early to wake him) I normally pump 200-300ml, and he can drink better than I can pump! sometimes he feeds so much I can't even pump anything! he's drunk it all!
and I work full time, and DH is a SAHD (best in the tri-state area!) so more feeds during the day would be tricky ... I'm out of the house from around 6.45am until 6.30pm and he sleeps from around 7.30pm til 6-7am
weekends, I feed as much as he likes, but it's usually pretty on par with his weekday routine.
he wets about 7 nappies per day, and does a poo every other day usually.
thanks so much for the replies! am trying to calm down ... spot the first time mother ...
