Breastfeeding Preemie
My sweet baby surprised us at 35 weeks when she made her grand entrance. Teagan weight 4 lb 8 oz the day she arrived. I had an amazing team of laceration nurses coach me and build my confidence up.
While I’m the hospital we would breast feed as long as she would go and then supplement with donor milk after since she wasn’t taking in enough off me yet and she would tucker out early. We’d do this every three hours.
Since then I’ve gotten all out of wack and have been bottle feeding my breast milk mostly with breast feeding every now and then. Soon I’ll be home alone with baby and me and able to breast feed more.
How many times a day should she eat? Last weight in, a week ago, she was 5 lb 6 oz. this week she will be four weeks old.
Thank you in advance!
