I really don't feel like a good mom let alone a parent. My 4 year old daughter is spending the night with grandma again because we are in the hospital till 1 or 3 ish tomorrow. I miss her so much. But I'm trying to breastfeed and I feel like a failure because I don't think he's getting enough.

He wants to just stay attached. I'm considering switching to bottle feeding but my so keeps trying to help me breastfeed like he did with our oldest. I don't want to let anyone down but this is wearing and tearing on me I cry. all I do is cry.

It takes about 24-48 hours for your milk supply to adjust to what baby needs. If your nurses and the pediatrician are not concerned, I wouldn't worry about it and wait to see if your supply increases in the next couple days. Congratulations, mama! ❤

@momma2017 i only really had to do this for 3 days until my body started producing what he wanted (he had a really big appetite also)

@momma2017 my last was number 3 and it all just seemed so foreign to me... go with your instinct though momma, also you are not a failure!! So, this is what i did, maybe it will work for you also... i would latch my son on and let him feed on BOTH breast then if after that he still seemed hungry i would do skin to skin with him (to helo with the production of milk) then give him a little bit of formula (then pump a little bit, to emulate that he is eating during that time so your body still thinks hes eating) but i would always latch him first and then pump if i gave him formula

@b3autifulm3ss no I'm so un educated I ask questions but I just don't get it..it's soppose to come natural I thought this second time around would be easier. But it's just as tiring and confusing and my patients have ran dry.
