Tell me its normal....
My little girl is now 16 days old and seems to feed constantly!
She can go up to 2 and a half hours inbetween but only if she is out in the pram / car / in a deep sleep. But this is only maybe once a day. Through the night she is pretty good but once awake at 7ish will want to feed until i have to put her down about 8.30amish when i have to put her down to get ready to take my son to nursery. She will then sleep in the pram whilst i walk there and back then feed on and off from 9.30amish when we get back. I put her back in the pram at about 11.30am to go and collect him and she can stay asleep till about 1.30pm. From then onwards sge can feed and feed till bedtime! She comes off herself but once i sit her up within 10 mins her little mouth is routing again!
I have just been sitting feeding thinking i need to build up my supply but my little boy is suffering from me not being able to do as much. Now im starting to wonder if it means im not filling her enough?? (see other post... im paranoid about this!)
Is it normal or do i need to boost my supply? is that possible? iv tried expressing but got next to nothing. I do think she is managing to get milk though as its round her lips when she pulls away.
