My lactation was going fine, and then I got sick. I feel like my breasts aren't filling up like they used to, it's barely anything. And my daughter is peeing less. I've already taken off her diapers, decided to do a wet diaper test. How can I increase my milk supply? Or should I introduce formula? In principle, you can't tell from my daughter that she's hungry, she's not constantly on the breast, but the fact that she's peeing less is worrying me. I'll count her wet diapers, and if anything, I'll call the doctor.

It will be the same at 3 months, which is normal. The only thing related to the illness is that you need to drink more fluids.

It seems like you're experiencing a "milk coming in" phase coinciding with your baby learning to latch, right? This is when your milk doesn't just flow freely anymore, and your little one has to work a bit harder to get their meal.

Aleksandra We're almost 2 months old in a couple of days, lactation has been established for a while now, but my breasts used to feel fuller. Now they just feel like rags.

Drink more fluids, and try to eat well. This will pass.

Lactofit helped me with tea, I think that was its name. And in general, warm drinks really help with milk supply.

You know, even though I'm not sick, I also feel like the baby is annoying. I also read about swaddling, but it seems like such a hassle with them...
I want to rent a scale and weigh before and after feeding.
I wanted to see how much milk I actually have (my breast pump is kind of crappy, it doesn't pull anything).
With my first daughter, I knew for sure that I had little milk because she was underweight and didn't latch, so I pumped for her, and therefore I knew exactly how much.
And now... it's the mystery of the century with this breastfeeding...

If you have a baby equipment rental service, maybe you'll consider renting a scale after all, I think it's easier with them...

Offer the breast more often. Drink more warm liquids.

Offer the breast at every little cry, don't get stressed, and drink plenty of warm liquids yourself.
