sad about not having enough milk
I've tried so hard to boost my milk supply. Baby is suckling nonstop.
I've been supplementing with formula- only about an ounce a day max... Usually at night.
Kept thinking eventually we wouldn't need that. Now she's 4 weeks old and suddenly needs supplements 2-3 oz like 3 or 4 times a day. She still nurses a ton too.
Why am I not able to keep up???
My partner keeps telling me it's ok, she is fed, that's all that matters.
While I know this is true, I just feel so sad about "failing" at providing milk... I really want to breastfeed and I'm afraid I am losing the chance and eventually will be bottle feeding more often than not.
I've worked so hard and now I am finally pain free when I breastfeed yet I am not satisfying my baby.
