worried about milk supply!
up until now my milk supply has been really good zac has fed every 3-4 hours and not needed a top up also in 10 days managed to express over 70oz of milk for him to be fed whilst i was in hospital i went in hospital tuesday and he had 2 feeds that morning after my op i leaked everywhere and later on managed to bf zac and on the wed and thursday managed to feed him twice each day and express twice each day plus lots of leakage i came home thursday teatime and he fed for about 3 hours on both boobs (wander if he missed themn) since then it seems i dont have as much milk i let him feed as long as he wants still every 3-4hrs and between half hour and 1 hour on each boob he hasd both boobs for each feed and still seems hungry after sometimes i just have to take him off as i get sore but has been having between 2 and 4oz of formula after
im finding it a bit upsetting will my milk come back enough to satisfy him again or am i on the downward spiral to formula feeds
hope this all makes sense and that there is a simple explanation i do think some is comfort sucking but it cant all be can it?
