So I can only pump about 1 1/2 oz of milk every two hours...is that enough for a 12 day old baby? I'm at a loss as to what to do. I wanted to breast feed but he's just not wanting to. Advice before I put him on formula? Bc I really don't want to. I have no problem pumping and giving in a bottle, I just don't feel like I'm producing enough milk for him.

How many wet diapers is he getting ? A minimum of 8 indicates hydrated well fed baby... At least 2 poops in 24 hours... That's how I got some relief when I doubted if I was feeding my baby enough milk

My boy is 7 weeks and I'm pumping 28 ounces that I bottle feed him but he also latches pretty well and nurses well. He is now 14 pounds and like you I wasn't producing much at the beginning. Keep taking fenugreek and stay hydrated. I drink 1.5 gallon of water in 24 hours. Pumping is not enough, massage your breasts and press them while pumping. Breasts will get full if you pump every hour... Just don't give up...

Putting baby to breast as much as possible, it's more effective than the pump, lactation smoothies doubled my supply in a wk, Gatorade

I'm exclusively pumping too and I always worry if I am pumping enough. My little man just turned 3 weeks on Monday and I'm pumping roughly 3-4 oz every 2 hours which is just enough for him. I power pump once a day, drink Gatorade, and I take lactation pills with ferugreek in it. I honestly haven't noticed much of a difference yet.

I was told baby only needs 1 to 1.25 ounces of milk for every hour. I has to stop pumping due to medical issues causing me low supply.have you tried lactation cookies or drinking Gatorade or power pumping?

My mom thinks that my extended breastfeeding is selfish. She believes I'm only doing it because I'm lazy or that I want my son to continue to be a baby. She says I need to pump or give him milk from a cow. My milk is the best thing for him and I want my baby to have the best. I know that nursing him comforts him and I don't want to take that away. I would love to just pour milk in a cup and go about my day.. but I'm doing this so my baby can have the best. What's selfish about that?

so my husband wants to feed are baby but the thing is that I will be breastfeeding so idk how it would work. he was thinking that when he wants to feed him he would give him formula but I just want my baby to have breast milk. so then he said why don't you pump your milk out and I'll feed it to him and i thought that would be the best thing but then I'm scared that my baby will get use to the bottle. I need help idk what to do because my husband really wants to feed him :/ and we need to come up with something before are baby is here. can anyone help??
