Hello!
i had planned to drop all BF at 3 months, and have been dropping feeds over the last 2 weeks... now i am only bf in the night, in the morning and before bath. the thing is that my milk production seems to be right down, so that if he has full feed in the night, they don't seem to fill up again properly for the morning feed, and in fact they never get as full and leaky in the night as they used to, they stay soft... is that right? is he still getting the same amount from them? now i've decided i don't want to stop bf for these three feeds, but i'm worried that i'm not producing enough milk for him - is there anything i can do?
the daytime feeds i would like to keep on formula as sometimes i'm not here for him, and i find having to express for extra feeds too time consuming and stressful.
also, i am leaving him with my sister for two nights this weekend (romantic weekend away with dp!) and am worried that even if i express at the times i usually feed, my milk might dry up.
any ideas?
