So i tried to breast feed but she just wouldnt latch on, and i like being able to see and control what how much Nellie eats so i started expressing, this works fine for me, as OH feeds her and i express at the same time so theres a bottle ready for the next time.
However, I got all out of sync this morning and i fed her, failed to express then it came to feeding time again and i had to express while she was wailing for it. Ive just expressed as shes asleep atm, so there will be one ready for when she wakes up, but im finding i seem to be running out!!
It went from getting 90ml (3oz) to 120ml (4oz) to 150ml (5oz) no im only gettin about 60ml (2oz) each time. Why am i running dry?! HAHA.
im finding that because shes getting a bit less than the few previous days, shes wailing for more after, so im putting her on the one boob that she can latch on to (although it takes ages) cos she seems to be able to get a bit more out of it.
Im at a loss. Shes a chunky hungry baby!!
