Sorry - this is probably a very dumb question, but how do you actually know when your breast is empty? When I feed DS2 I know he is getting lots of milk at the start, but he always ends up dozing while suckling. I remove him and re-latch him after a while, but I'm never convinced that he's actually finished everything when he has finished, IYKWIM. His weight gain is okay, so I'm not worried about that, but I want to make sure that he's not just getting foremilk. Also, if he's not emptying it, then that's going to affect my supply, isn't it?
Any tips?
thanks
