I've been exclusively breastfeeding, and for the first week or so everything has gone great. I was actually producing enough milk for her to eat and pump afterwards to store.

now, it comes time to eat and I'm not even remotely full. so she doesn't eat enough..

she is 2 weeks old, and tonight we tried giving her some of the milk we had stored in a bottle. she did really well with it, and she seemed to actually get enough to eat for the first time in at least a week.

looks like we might be switching to a bottle soon

Some BF babies only poop once a week, so I think that's fine. Keep breastfeeding (if you want to), and try power pumping

@babes101116, she's peeing decent some days, but not always. And she doesn't usually poop more than once a day

The key to milk production is nursing frequently. In the beginning she will basically live on your boobs but it's helping your milk come in more. Keep her latched on and nursing as often as she wants, stay hydrated, and make sure you're taking in enough calories. If you're worried about supply you can nurse her and then pump right after.

@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, she is always fussy and acts like she doesn't eat enough when she is feeding a good amount of times during the day, she just isn't getting anything out of it. my milk supply keeps getting lower instead of higher

It's normal for babies to nurse very often and not seem "full" because their stomachs are still full. I would continue breastfeeding. The nursing sessions will become longer with more space in between soon, and nursing on breasts will help your milk supply as well.

33 weeks 4 days today !! Had my appointment today for biophysical profile, and growth scan. At 28 weeks, she was in the 31 percentile, weighing 2 pounds and 1 ounce. Now she is in the 17th percentile, weighing 3 pounds and 1 ounce. I don't understand what I'm doing so wrong. 😢 my doctor will make me deliver if it drops to 10 or less, as she would be better out than in. Im 33 weeks 4 days, but my uterus is only measuring 31 weeks. Her heart rate was 132 today, her reflexes were great, she's a mover, her breathing movements were good, she had a few in a 30 minute period, they like to see atleast one in that timeframe. Also, my fluid level was at a 17, 10 to 25 is normal and she is head down in the birthing position. When we first started, she wasn't moving at all because she is stubborn like that, I swear she knows when she is getting an ultrasound and absolutely hates it. So the tech gave me two soft peppermints to get her to move , sure enough about 15 minutes later she was all over the place, first things first, her hands playing with her feet in front of her face just like last time. Lol she is something else, she must've liked the taste of the peppermint because not only did it get her to moving, but we could see her doing sucking motions with her mouth and sticking her tongue out. I love my silly girl, I actually have an ultrasound picture of that moment that I'm gonna share! My appointments are weekly now and im being monitored closely. I'm not sure what she scored on her BPP today, because my doctor was tied up with a delivery, so we will go over everything next Thursday following next weeks ultrasound as well as this one. I've been so down all day today.. sigh...

I just absolutely love some women on here! Some woman wants to write on another women's post telling her she shouldn't be having sex at all in the beginning of pregnancy. I didn't know she was her doctor. Then she wants to tell me that the first trimester is only 1-9 weeks pregnant. And she lost her baby at 4 weeks pregnant due to sex. Like sweetie that's your period starting!

Bottles/cup Isabella is 21 months she has milk at bed time and milk as soon as she wakes in the morning. She has this milk in a bottle as she won't drink milk from anything else! Tried in her sippy cup but she doesn't like it, plus I need a non spil one as her bottle leaks all over her pillow ect... what cup would you suggest? Need to put warm milk in it and her like the teat ?
