I had to week him for feedings during the day when I was BF for the first few weeks. I tried every 2-3 hours.
Take off the baby's clothes and play with her feet. I hated doing it but he was a sleepy baby.

That is the only why to establish your supply.

That will change soon enough Chat Icon . She is still so young. I remember thinking the same thing even with #2 and I am EBF. The longest I would let her go durning the day was 4 hours at night I never woke her to eat a.) I didn't want that to become her routine b.) I was to tired to wake myself up and then to try and wake her. At night from day one she only woke up 2 times a night so it wasn't bad and then she went to 1 time.

so its ok for me to let her sleep at night without waking her to eat? if she wakes to be changed do i have to feed her?? last nite she ate and went to bed at 1:00, then woke with dirty diaper at 4 but she didn' want the boob so i put her down and she fell asleep? is that ok
