What am I doing wrong???

Question

I started producing around 2oz of milk each time I pumped when my daughter was a week old. She is now 2 weeks and 5 days and I’m only pump not quite an ounce. Am I drying up? I’m trying everything I can! I’m feeding her often and pumping, I’ve increased my water intake, and I’ve been drinking the Mother’s milk tea. What more can I do?

Answer

Are you pumping after a feed? Your baby is older, bigger and requires more milk therefore she is emptying your breast more. 
Don’t worry about drying up. Just watch her wet and dirty diapers. You should be fine.

Answer

At two weeks your body is still trying to get used to babies pattern. I would nurse as much as possible and then pump. We always think our babies arent getting enough when they nurse but trust me they are. Most breast fed babies don’t even drink over 4-5 oz and My almost 5 month old doesnt drink more than 4 oz of breast milk ever. Mostly 2-3 ounces and she is a little bigger than average
