Sleeping Longer
OK so what happens with supply when baby decides he's gonna sleep through
the night ie from 11pm to 7am? I have to work so hard at keeping up my supply that I'm paranoid I'll dry up if he sleeps through. --Alison |

She dropped the 10pm first, then 2am feeds so she now goes to bed around 7pm and wakes up at around 4am for a quick feed before waking up for the day around 7am.

When baby wants less supply cuts down, then it goes up when demand increases again, which it does when Kami hits a growth spurt! -- Andrea mom of 5 - latest addition Kamron David 16lbs 2 (7lbs 9 and a half born). |

Mine dropped the 2am feed, he goes to sleep at around 8-9ish after a big feed and a boring story, wakes up for a big 2 boob feed at 4am then a snack at 6.30 then is awake for real at 7.30 but doenst want feeding until 8.30 by which time I am about to explode! It's good for expressing though. I really need to feed at 4am and wake up leaking before he wakes up. teapot moo is 3 and a half months old |
