Low milk supply
Is age a factor for lactation? My baby is 47 days old and is 3.7 kg. Feeds very often. Nearly every half an hr. And feeds for just 2-3 mins. And sleeps. In her sleep she remains latched for another 2-3 mins. By doing this is. She getting enough feed. When I sqeeze my breast no milk comes out or very little and the milk is very thin. Is she getting enough at her age I doubt. She doesn't look healthy. The milk she throws out is watery. Need help.

Usually milk is watery in consistency only. If you're Baby gaining adequate weight every month then it's adequate. Every half and hour feeding is overfeeding avoid it. Every cry and sucking is not for Hunger always.
