selfish post here....how do you know if you're running out of milk? i've started drinking aktavite as recommended by sherie (accdg to recipe in breastfeeding forum), weaned myself from using the nipple shield (sore nipples to show for this but not too bad) but am feeling like i am not producing milk. have put max on the bbs a few times today and she's been fussy and not wanting it...wriggling a lot, pulling on the bbs, but still coming out hungry though and having 70 mls from the bottle (formula). am worried that have run out of milk. am ging around with a bra for today to see if my bbs leak through the day (can't tell with bra and pads on) and so far nothing...except for the letdown (?) on one side when starting off with the other....but not that much either.
am not against formula feeding but really wanted to breast feed for at least 3 mos.
