My baby boy is 12 days old now. Originally, I plan to have full breastfeed at day time and mix with some milk powder at nite time. However, everytime after I BF my baby (say for 0.5 to 1 hour), my baby still cry. So, I give him some milk powder. He can drink (additionally on top to BF) 60-70 ml.......Because of milk powder, we feed the baby for every 2-3 hours.
Can any breastfeed mother share how you handle the baby when he still cry and not fall asleep after you BF for 0.5 hour -1 hour. Continue to breastfeed, until the baby finally feel satisfied? I am really depressed.....cos I really afraid my baby will only have milk bottle (not BF) very soon. As the nurse in hospital who recommend BF strongly discourage the mix of milk powder cos once baby get adapted to milk powder, they will not suck our breast anymore.
I wonder if your baby is hungry or wet diaper or sleepy?
Baby cries for 3 elements all the time. Now my baby boy crying for sleepy, I won't hold him and let him cry until fall asleep. Of course I will check his diaper and sure he's not hungry as well.
Don't worry about breast milk when she is crying. Just check diaper and milk time, if both are not, it should be the 3rd needs. Can't feed her formula milk too much.
