In regards to feeling like you dont have enough milk, I'd suggest to offer the breast a little bit more often as the more you feed the more milk you will make!
My breasts are still really full, but Zyon tends to cluster feed from around 5pm til 10pm, then sleeps 4-5hours & then feeds again every 3 hours til 5pm...
It is normal for your breasts to settle into what bubs is needing, but it might still be a bit early or that, so to build up/keep your supply I'd offer more feeds!?
WE have been out all morning at the shops, I wore Zy in the HAB & he slept the whole time (about 3.5hours!) When I got home my breasts were so massive! So have just fed him & he's laying in the bassinette looking around...
He loves being in the HAB & I adore wearing him so it works perfectly for both of us!
I just weighed myself & I am 3kgs lighter than last Friday (still 12kgs to go, but I am hoping the breastfeeding this time (unlike with Indah!) will help shed the extra kgs!
I am also exclusively breastfeeding, we go overseas in 5ish wks so I definately want his food on tap!!! hee hee
I have given ALL my maternity stuff away, no more bubba's for us, which is devastating, but I am also looking forward to our future endeavours!!!
My Dh does all the housework & alot of cooking too, which is a huge help, he does heaps with Maddy & Indah so I can focus on Zy's newborn stage & soak it all up...
