I have a low milk supply owing to breast hypoplasia. I am mixed feeding and maintaining about 50/50 breast formula thanks to a mountain of supplements (domperidone, fenugreek, goat's rue) and pumping. DD usually feeds only from me in her dream feed and throughout the night. The last couple of nights, she has slept right through the night from the dream feed to morning, and another night she slept from 10pm without waking at all. I am nervous about the implications of this for my (precarious) supply. Should I be pumping at night if she isn't waking? Should I wake her for a dream feed? She is almost 9 weeks and was EBF until 7 weeks.
