Help b.feeding questions

Hi,

So I have a 3.5month old baby boy. He fights his naps in the day often only sleeping 45mins max in the day.

He usually would feed every 3 hours at night like clock work. But recently not sure exactly why but he is sleeping 5hours between breastfeeding sessions.. this means 6hrs at night between feeds. I am really worried that this will affect my supply. Can anyone help advise? Also will this affect my supply at night? Or through the whole day?

Ive had a very difficult journey with b.feeding already. As baby wasnt putting weight on I have to top him up. But I only top him up in the day. So he usually would wake up for feeds. Help!

As babies get older they do just start sleeping better.

Your body will adjust to fit his routine, you might produce too much for a few days and wake with engorged breast but it won't impact your daytime supply.

My LG went from waking every 2 hours to sleeping through, then waking up once at 4. I could always feed her.

Don't worry. And enjoy the sleep!
