[quote=Anonymous]It's possible that you don't have the right size flange or something isn't set up right. You might read and try some other size options. It also helps with letdown if you're warm (like a shawl over your shoulders) and you look at pictures of your baby. It can be hard to produce as much for the pump if you're cold and tense. If your baby is healthy and growing then you have the supply. Your baby is probably more efficient at getting it out than the pump. Also, I tended to pump 4 hours after last feeding my baby, so then I would get a good amount. It's possible that you weren't going to get more if it's just been 2 hours. And supply is lower later in the day. My morning pumps were always much bigger than my evening pumps. But regardless, your baby drank the bottles and seemed happy. That's a good sign you pumped what he would have consumed. So things are probably fine. He's only 7 weeks. They don't eat a huge volume at a time.[/quote]
