I used to be able to express 5oz for DD for a dream feed but in the past week or so that's gone down to only 3oz and it's worrying me that I'm not producing enough milk for her. She's always fed every 3 hours - never really extended to 4, and at present has a dreamfeed (such as it is) at 11pm and then wakes about 3 for a feed and then at 6. Last few nights have been 2 and 5 though. She's eating a lot - started weaning about 3 weeks ago, and she's taken to it - so much so am worried might be feeding her too much. But know that milk should still be her main food. What do I do? Does it sound like she's not getting enough? Should I be thinking about adding formula?
