I'm not even 3wks pp and my milk seems to be drying up. For the first few days after the baby was born he was having problems latching on, but before I left the hospital we were finally able to get him to do so. And he was BFing and supplement with formula afterwards when needed. But he wasn't gaining any weight so they have me feeding him every 2-3 hrs with 3-4oz at a time. The bad thing is he's a sleeper so when it comes to feeding time he doesn't want to latch and will fight me for up to 15mins til I give in and feed him a bottle. So I've been pumping, but as of late I've only been getting 4-7oz a day total.
I still want him to have the BM, but I'm at a lose right now over this. I go to the dr tomorrow and I'm gonna talk to her about it. She told me before if I started having problems she'd write out a script to help the problem, but I haven't heard of that before.
Anyone have any advice or been on a script to help out the problem??
BM drying up. =(
