Breastfeeding experience

2020-04-29 04:26:37
I have been feeding my 1 and half month baby Nicely till past one week. Past one week my breast feels extreme soft and milk is in extreme flow sometimes and drop drop coming sometime when I squeeze and check. Does that means my milk supply is decreasing?  However My baby weight is good which was 2935 gms at birth and One week ago it was 4355 gms. I m having iron and calcium tablets given by my doctor should I start supradyn multivitamin also.

Iron and calcium is enough, take nutritious diet .If baby is gaining weight and not hungry after your feed, then it is fine

If the baby is full after a feed and if he is gaining weight then your milk is enough.....breasts do not have to be hard to qualify as having sufficient milk or not....and also squeezing and checking is also not a good parameter.....so don't worry about it..you can take multivitamin

Hi. If your baby is not crying after feeds and gaining weight normally then milk flow is adequate . Iron and calcium supple ments are enough . Have nutritious diet . Drink plenty of water .
