Is it normal that after a week of giving birth I'm not producing as much breast milk, I mean I pump into bottles wen my boob's r full and sore and I let baby girl nurse but my milk is slowly drying up. I just wanna kno cuz I'm determined to breastfeed
thanks @crunchymomma cuz I was starting to worry I thought it was something I did wrong
never let your boobs get "full" that signals your body to slow down milk production. am "empty" breast makes milk faster than a "full" once. also no matter how empty you feel or how much you nurse, you can never run out of milk.
try looking into something called power pumping. also staying hydrated, and eating foods that help boost your supply
she might just prefer the bottle i know my son didn't like latching he would go for a few mins then fuss and fuss until i gave him a bottle.
I try to latch her every chance I get but it's frustrating to me and her that she only sucks for like 5 mins and cries until I give in and give her breast milk n a bottle
normal start hydrating up more eat anything with oats in it also and try to latch baby girl more often. i had the same issue the first two weeks or longer with my daughter
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
just make sure you nurse on demand, even if your baby starts eating every 30 minutes nurse when she wants to. and if they're sleeping at least wake them up every 2 hours to eat. if you at the very least do those 2 things you'll be able to successfully breast feed :)
