dun wry so much. things will be fine eventually. like u i kip latching but still nt enuff. So its ok to supplement w FM. give ourselves n the poor nipples a break also.
Dr keoy says bb can drink up to 90ml at this stage. cos i chk w him whether 60ml FM after 1 hour of latching is too much for a 6 day old. so no worries.. he say no prob as long as they poo n pee. pee>3times a day then no dehydrated liao.
U need to rest, drink lotsa water then ur milk will come. stress wont help.
I also tried pumping after latching cos still feel engorged. managed to squeeze 10ml out fr 1 side. those that we pump after latch is considered excess, so u r making gd progress. =)
Cheer up & jia u!
