After my 10 day check up my little one had regained his birthweight plus a bit more. Having mentioned to the midwife that I was having to wake him up to feed at night she told me to stop it and just to feed him at night when he woke and demanded it . The past 2 nights my little one has slept for 5 hours straight without waking to be fed. The extra sleep we are getting is amazing however I'm worried that my milk supply will suffer due to the lack of feeding. I have noticed an increase in my little one feeding during the day since we stopped waking him at night. Am i worrying for nothing or is there a chance my supply might be affected due to the lack of night feeds? Any advice would be great, being a FTM I feel like I'm second guessing everything and unsure what to do for the best
