Moms that are pumping breast milk question
How many oz and bottles a day are you giving your child. My daughter is alittle over a week old and weighs 6pd 5 oz I'm starting to pump from one breast because it got really ripped up and I feed her from my one good boob. Just not sure how much now I should be feeding her since now I can see how much I am pumping. The dr said about 2 oz every 3 hours. Does that sound right?

Re: Moms that are pumping breast milk question
I would def continue to pump from both breasts. Drink tons of water and put her to the breast as much as possible.
I would def offer her 2 oz every 3 hours or so. What a lil peanut you have. :)

Give her 2 oz and see if she is still hungry. If she is give her another oz. Remember what you pump out is less than what your DD can get out.

Re: Moms that are pumping breast milk question
Oh, did you mean you are BFing from one side and pumping from the other? I was confused.
So are you offering bottles between feedings and still nursing?
