[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know you had low supply? How do you know your baby wasn’t eating enough?[/quote] OP here. I fed him every 3 hours as instructed by the hospital. He would eat for 5 minutes most feeds and falls asleep. Other feeds he would eat a little longer but then fall asleep. I thought that was normal and he ate enough and was no longer hungry. He slept a lot and didn’t cry much. Then the 2W appointment and he didn’t regain birth weight. The pediatrician said some babies are super sleepy and they don’t wake to eat or they don’t eat enough. I saw a lactation consultant and she gave me some tips. We did two feeds and he didn’t eat much. I decided to pump because I wanted to know how much he is eating. He still fell asleep but we at least knew he was getting certain amount. He started waking on his own to eat at 4 weeks and now eats fine. [/quote]
