Not enough supply- please help
I feel like my 3 week LO is not getting enough to eat. He is always hungry. It feels like he is rooting or grunting for more. My SO wants me to supplement with formula but I don't want to. I feel like a failure. Is there anything I can do to up my supply? I'm afraid formula is the route.....if I did what formula do you supplement with??? Drinking a ton of water a day, at least 3 litters and eating healthy. No dairy and little red meat due to gassy LO. I ask I pump after he is done eating. I only get maybe 1 oz.
Plus my nipples are killing me! They are like razors-- I out the cream on it but his latch is like he chimps down and then eats. Ouch!! It eases up but if it falls out or he moves positing its chomping again.
Thanks
