I don't think my milk is enough for DS3 any more He is still fed every 2 hours in the day and has recently gone back to every 3 hours at night as well. I am exhausted, my nipples constantly tingle and i just feel that there isn't enough milk for him.
I have tried offering him a bottle of forula but , apart from once, he will not take a bottle at all. I can't express - well, I can but i get 1 oz in over an hour and thats from both sides.
He will only feed from one side at each feed but will happily feed from the otehr next time iyswim? I offer both but he just won't take it. My let down has started to 'let me down' by sometimes not coming at all! And it has never been too fast that i have noticed.
Although he appears to be showing some of the signs of being ready to wean, i am trying to wait and they probably aren't The Signs anyway. He is 19 weeks now
