Also I need some breastfeeding motivation. My baby doesn't seem like she is getting enough. She always wants more after nursing for 1hr. So I give her 30ml of formula. I feel like she is over feeding but not satisfied. I also pump but not getting enough for a bottle. I feel like giving up. I breastfeed my boys for 7months 😫😭
Her stomach is still really small. It's possible she doesn't want more milk, she just wants the comfort of suckling at the breast.
@tinafowlkes50 I wouldn't just yet bc u don't want to give her nipple confusion.
Sounds like she’s cluster feeding, she’s trying to establish your milk. Keep feeding her on demand. You got this 💪
@tinafowlkes50, like another mom said she also might be sucking just for comfort, I think if you introduce a pacifier to her now it might cause a little confusion. I was told to use my pinky instead of a paci. It worked great with my youngest.
Newborns eat a little and often. Odds are she’s getting enough mama. Just keep trying, your milk will come in!
