DS is 6 weeks old and EBF.
He's starting to go 6-7 hours between feeds at night which is great. However my boobs disagree. He fed at 8pm and I woke up now (3am) with rock hard boobs. I really needed to feed so I woke him up.
Should I be doing that again? Or is expressing the answer? I've been told by a MW that expressing can mess with your supply as your body just makes more.
DS is happy and putting on weight just fine. It seems so silly to wake a sleeping baby!
Any advice?
