My nearly 3 week old has not wanted to stop feeding today. We struggled with getting him to stay on when bf he spent his first couple of days in special care. I have been ebm for the past week as both of us were getting way to stressed out trying to get a decent feed and for him to put on weight.
Now it's so hot he doesn't seem to want to want to stop feeding, I pump every 2-3 hours but I'm just not making enough to satisfy him. Am I right to top him up with formula? Am I on the slippery slope to drying up? I really want to go as long as possible ebm even tho it's hard. Just need some advice.
