GG Lee, Jia you this time. I think 50ml is good enought for the first 2 weeks. I think as long as baby is not crying for milk you should have enough. Even if he is crying every hour just feed on demand. That is what happen to my girl. She will latch only 3-5mins each feed. So she gets hungry fast. She demanded to be fed every hour. While my older boy will feed 15 to 30 mins and will only feed every 3 hours. Its ok was long as you don't mind. I don't care what others say or what the book says. I also c-section for both of my kids. Even the nurse at hospital said I should not be feeding, i should be resting. I just don't care, i feel that my body can manage. But in hospital I let her mix formula and bm. After the first time i felt engorgment, i stop all formula. BTW, she grows out of hourly feed and need feeding every 2hours after 2nd month and 3 hours after 3 or 4 month. So don't be compare, just be sure of what you are doing.
Anyway from my own observation, the earlier you start latching the earlier your milk supply will come in. I delayed latching my 2nd bb. I fed her after 6hrs delivery. Then my milk came in on the 6th day. While my first bb, i latch within 2 hours from delivery and my milk comes in on the 3rd day. So if you feel that your body can manage, just demand feed. I don't listen to formula is better/thicker theory. I am very sure that bm is the best.
Your milk is diluted maybe it is the foremilk. The hind milk hasn't comes in yet and you have already stop pumping. Do just keep pumping. even pumping nothing is also ok. Just pump at least 30 minutes per session. Initially you will definately pump nothing. Nvrmind, just keep pumping and you will surely yield the milk. One good way as i mentioned is to pump one side and feed one side. As you baby suction is very strong, he will let you have 'let-down'. That is usually the start of the hind milk, which is rich and thick. I use manual pump when i perform simultanous pump. However when my bb is bigger like 5-6 months, she will start snatching my pump. So I can't pump simultanously anymore.
Actually, my girl's latching is also wrong. Even now she is not latching correctly. Lucky for me, she very gentle when comes to suckling. But then it is true that enforcing correct latch is important as i also get sore nipple occasionally.
