lots of people talk about breast feeding being "established".. Does anyone know what the criteria is to be considered established?
My DD is 3 weeks old. I never noticed when my milk came in.... After 6 days I panicked and expressed some to check if it had ( yes! It was there!)
My boobs never leak, the don't ever feel too full, and I can't squirt milk out.
But DD is gaining weight at lightening speed (already outgrown newborn size), makes lots of wet and poopy nappies, And can drink like a fish. I can easily express a few ounces at a time.
So when do I know when breast feeding is established? And when can I stop worrying about dummies and bottles causing nipple confusion?
