If anyone can give any advice I would be grateful.
I'm a FTM and exclusively breast feeding. My 6 week old daughter has started struggling with feeds.
When feeding she seems to choke/squirm arch back and make loud noises when feeding. She wants to feed but struggles. I'm thinking I may have a fast let down. So this evening I expressed about 2 ounces and the milk was still spraying out. I pumped a bit more then finished. My daughter does tend to cluster feed in the evening and I fed her off the breast I had already expressed from no problem. She started getting a little fussy so I changed breast and thats when she started struggling a lot so I put her back on my expressed breast and fed, she seemed full and content and fell asleep. My question is should my milk be spraying out even after expressing 2 ounces. does anyone have any advice? Do I need to express 2 ounces every time I feed? Thanks in advance
