[quote=Anonymous]The milk that comes out when you are first nursing is watery and the hind milk at the end has more fat. Ask the pediatrician or a lactation consultant, but I think that might increase the fat % of the milk your baby is getting. Also as much as you can just focus on nursing and not doing a lot else (e.g. stay at home as much as possible and avoid distractions like too many visitors etc). I think that might help with your baby's weight gain. Don't worry too much about supplementing. I had an undersupply and had to supplement with formula early on, but by the time my son was 6 weeks old I was EBF and did so until he was 2 yrs old![/quote]
