DS is 6.5 weeks. lost lots, gained it back, then put no weight on in 9 days (weighed 1 week ago at 1oz above bw)
have been mix feeding. 2 weeks ago reduced ffs gradually to 120 mls pd. since last weigh have increased how much i offer the breast and also increased ffs to 180-200 mls pd. i don't want to increase more unless it's going to affect his health - is that ok?
since i reduced ffs he has pooed much less. last fri he did 2 big yellow poos but nothing since, but i think he will do one today (straining and small smear in nappy)i've been told that's ok.
he has fed lots since i started offering boob more - could that be a growth spurt? also, is it really ok that he isn't pooing?
other question - is my milk supply 'established' now? will i still be able to increase it with feeding?
also - will i ever be able to express more than 10ml?
thanks!
