Hello all, I have an 11 week old ds who is exclusively breastfed. I have been doing all the feeds and loving it , but am now starting to express so that my dh can do a night time feed. I appear to be rubbish at it - it is taking eons to get even 100 mls. Does it get easier the more you do it? I have my ds in the room, and have had let down, but then the milk seems to disappear. I am a bit confused by this as he is a very efficient feeder, usually only takes about fifteen minutes or so and is gaining weight very well, so I am assuming is getting quite a bit.
Also, how much do your 3 month old bf babies take? I know every baby is different, but just to give me a rough idea...
