I'm sure he has gotten use to the loaded Cals as this was ceased (as per my request) just days before he came home.

I have attempted to express after a feed but have only managed a few drops so, I assume he is sucking me dry. When I do express I tend to get 100-120 mls of very "blue" milk and once it sits for a while, it has a layer of white thick cream on the surface but it is a lot less than what I was getting a few months ago.

The other night I decided to try him on some formula. He ended up drinking 100 mls and slept for nearly 5 hours and for the first time in a log while I woke up with my breasts feeling full and I even had a let down as soon as he started to stir, maybe the few extra hours of sleep did me some good.

Unfortunalty, Angus is now back in hospital. He contracted an UTI and became very ill very quickly. He was on IV antibotics but is now on oral as they were having issue with it tissueing. He is back on a stats monitor due to his resps also being affected. Since his admission, I have been BFing 4-5 time a day and he is fed formula when I am not there and to everyones surprise, he as gained 130 grams in 3 days so, I have come to the conclusion that my breast milk may just be too weak for him. I will continue to BF but will substitute 2 feeds a day with formula and see how that goes.

Many thanks for all your support!
