I breastfed 4 months with my first and almost a year with my second.

I found my girls would start to fall asleep during feeding then would be hungry very soon. I found Changing diaper or ticking toes helped keep them awake, thus fuller tummies ect.....

If mine could just stay latched they would have.....thus came the binky to sooth so they ate when they were really hungry and not just for comfort.

Maybe you could use the last meal before bed to supplement so you both can get more sleep. This helps both of you.... your more rested....so is baby and baby may nurse longer and harder. This will help you make more milk ect....


Congrats on your new baby!
