My boy is 10 days old and we had issues with latching.

The nurses forced the bottle on us because his blood sugars were low. He latched great right after birth but once he got that bottle, he just became super frustrated trying to latch and/or gets lazy and falls asleep.

Anyways, due to that I just decided it’s best to pump for the both of us. I’m able to see how much he is eating and he is able to eat without getting frustrated, having to work for it etc.

This is the stock pile I have already!!

I’m pretty proud considering he has been eating 500+ ml a day and then this was all extra.

Word of advice: Drink TONS of water. I’ve been consuming 100-150 oz of water a day. I strongly believe that’s what helped me produce so much. I also pump every 2-3 hours, sometimes every 4 hours if I’m out or busy at the moment.
