I’m freaking out because I think I’m loosing my milk.😰 he’s crying so hard at the boob. I’ll feel my let down but once it’s done it like it’s not enough. Its been happening for the past 3 days... but he’s had really full diapers. Idk ..Idk if I’m suppose give him formula . I don’t know what kind of formula because I’ve never used it before. I need help.

@goddesshotep, idk why this made me tear up but thank you so much. You just put my mind at ease. But yes water... oatmeal... tea.. got it! Thank you again!!
@mar_la those feelings happen to all nursing mom's.
It's probably a growth spurt. Let him continue to nurse as often as he'd like so he can produce more milk. Make sure your fuild intake is plentiful and try eating oatmeal or lookup other foods or tea's that'll help you produce milk. I've nursed 6 of my children and never needed formula. Trust your baby and your body. It knows what to do. So hopefully this helps.
@justgotaname, it really is because I feel like hes hungry and I’m not giving him enough
He could be having a growth spurt? Keep putting him to the breast! I know it’s frustrating.
Pumping can give you an indication of how much milk you’re producing from each breast .
@mar_la I went through it too, he had full diapers as well, it's a growth spurt! It will happen periodically. Completely normal. As others suggested, drink lots of water. That's the most important, but other than that it's normal. Dont give him formula, trust your body and his diapers. Although it seems after the let down that nothing more is coming out it IS. It's just the high fat content stuff that doesnt flow out as easily but is vital. You're doing great just keep it up! 🙂
