So I was exclusively pumping and bottle feeding my little girl. We got into that habit while she was in the NICU for a week so I didn't try to change it. But now I've decided to breast feed because pumping was just alot of work. When I was pumping I would pump between 2-4 ounces every time. Now baby girl will breast feed for about an hour (on both sides so 30 minutes a boob roughly) then fall asleep. But she will wake up an hour later wanting to drink an extra two ounces. I don't have enough of a supply to keep up that demand. Am I doing something wrong? Is she not getting enough at my boob? Now after she feeds I can only pump less than an ounce. I don't want to starve her...

honestly, no your not doing anything wrong. All babies are different when it comes to breastfeeding. perhaps, you should try more leady vegetables and continue to drink twice as more water. The more you produce, the more your baby will get fuller faster. Just keep being patient sweetheart. Its All a process 😊. GoodLuck

Thank you @chereteamone I'm just trying to remind myself that it's going to take a day or two to get back into a routine but I don't want my baby to starve :/
