do I not make milk at night??

Question

I nurse my baby just fine in the morning, afternoon all day but when it hits like 6-8 o clock he just will not nurse. I assume maybe nothing's coming out? I've had to give him an evening bottle for 4 days now. What's going on??

Answer

Don't forget to pump when you give a bottle so your body knows it needs that milk. 
Our supply is lowest late afternoon/early evening. But usually they try to stimulate a letdown by latching and re latching during this time frame.  He just flat out isn't interested in nursing and exhibits no other signs?  Have you tried expressing a bit of milk on your nipple and on his lip? 
 Could be the start of bottle prefarance maybe. 
I'm not sure, I'm sure someone else will have some insight.
