I think my milk dried up already.Chat Icon DD starts to suckle my breast and then spits it out and cries for the bottle. Anyone else having BF problems?

Hang in there. Chat Icon BFing is so hard. It's finally starting to get a little better for me, but I definitely went through a period where I got really frustrated and thought about quitting.

Pumping isn't an indication of how much milk you produce while BFing. Babies are much more efficient at getting the milk than pumps. For everyone who is worried about their supply, make sure you're drinking a lot of water. Pumping for 15 minutes after each feeding can help increase your supply. Also, the more you BF, the more milk you should be able to produce. I've found Mother's Milk Tea helpful as well.
