Breastmilk production
My 1 month old baby breastfeeds for around 10-12 min almost every hour. However at night her demand increases due to which my breast milk almost becomes nil. As such she remains little hungry towards end and cries the whole night. Though the milk replenishes but it takes some time. Can someone kindly help me?

You may need lactation counseling with your pediatrician to see whether baby is latching properly ( latching - baby attaching to breast covering majority of areola )
Take enough rest, sleep with the baby. Healthy high energy dense food, fruits , vegetables, lots of water and soups for stress free lactation
All the best

Hello
Don't worry, everything is going to be ok.
More baby feed, more is milk with mother - it's good thing.
To check weight - for milk sufficient - worry.
Take care,
