So 7 weeks ago I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and from the first time he latched, breastfeeding has been a breeze. My son latches well, eats wonderfully and my supply was perfect.
Well last week I started noticing my breasts did not feel as full, my son was getting very grumpy while latching, he would have difficulty latching on and then half way through eating get very upset and start fussing and spitting out the nipple. I use to have issues of my breast leaking and getting engorged if he had a bottle while I left him with someone for a bit. Now when I pump in between feedings I don't get anything or at the very most, maybe 1/2 an oz.
I have also started having discomfort in both breasts after and in between feedings. the pain is all over, so I don't believe it is a clogged duct.
I started drinking mothers milk tea, got some fenugreek supplements and Im going to try to make some lactation cookies this afternoon. Hoping this will help.
Has anyone else experienced this problem or know what could cause it? I'm wondering if I shouldn't call my doctor.
Thanks so much
