I'm not making nearly enough milk for hi. apparently and so I need to know, if I was going to buy some formula just to…

What makes you think you're not making enough?

From birth to like 8 weeks, baby is going through back to backgrowth spurs so it may seem like you're not feeding him enough, but he's on all the time and crying to encourage your body to make more.

I pump and breastfeed and when I pump I'm getting like 3.5 ounces out of both boobs combined. I was getting like 5 out of one boob like a week ago

@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, @meagansimone

How old is baby? From birth to 4 weeks, baby needs .65 to 1 oz per hour. From 4 weeks and on, baby needs 1 to 1.25 oz per hour. This only applies when bottle feeding.

He's 3 weeks. he eats like 4.5-5 ounces every two hours if I have it, or he's fine with 3.5. but I can't even get that out cause he cluster feeds when his dad leaves for work so he gets like 2.5 and then whatever I can get out of my boob. and I can't let him feed on my right breast right now cause he's ruined that nipple temporarily

@meagansimone,

@madibug96, try eating oatmeal and drink lost of fluids and eat every 2-3 hours and drink milk.... it may sound like old tales but I tried by drinking milk and my milk supply went up

I just bought oatmeal but I've been eating oatmeal bars like crazy since I gave birth and I thought I wad drinking enough water. I'm gonna make those lactation cookies sometime. I'll try the milk thing cause it just isn't convenient for me anymore so I barely drink it lol thanks @iqrahp5

@madibug96, lol no problem.... if u have more questions than feel free to message me lol
