I'd add to n...Yes, lots of water and calories! I'd add to nurse on one side and completely empty the breast before switching (most of the time, you won't need to switch until the next feeding). That way your baby will get the richer hind-milk and it will help increase your milk supply. Also, just because your breasts don't feel full doesn't mean that baby isn't getting what he/she needs. Watch to see if baby is swallowing and watch for weight gain, not necessarily what you "feel." With my third I remember being incredibly worried before the 2 week check up that my lil' guy wasn't eating enough, but as soon as they put him on the scale, I realized what a chunker he was! Worried for nothing. Thanks Candra for all your great posts, this almost makes me want another one, shh, don't tell my husband ;) lolAmy Tnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136857044000164838.post-70341686947532145492011-07-28T07:47:14.722-04:002011-07-28T07:47:14.722-04:00i really wish i would have read this a few months ...i really wish i would have read this a few months back. i was blaming my body for not making enough milk, but shortly after i stopped breastfeeding i realized i had just been in denial because i wasn't taking care of myself. the way that i needed to. <br /><br />thanks for posting this. i hope it can help someone who is struggling with breastfeeding.deanna@delirious-rhapsodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11510367852834677697noreply@blogger.com
