Hello
The last week or so my lo has been super fussy at the breast. he makes this noise like a seal and I think it is because my let down is too slow for him and then once it comes after like a minute he starts this noise again.
I do nurse him to sleep and when he wakes up I nurse him back to sleep. Well the last few nights when he wakes up he doesn't settle easily back to sleep, it's been taking at least 1/2 - 1 hour for him to fall back asleep. Usually he'll fall asleep right away. He makes that seal noise at the breast and pulls on and off. last night was ecspecially bad.
He does have a cold he started Wednesday night but it is getting better and this has been going on a little longer than the cold started. I also suspect he is teething. I've been giving him teething tablets to help with any pain. I've given him tylenol a couple times when he seemed restless b/c I assumed it was pain, I don't know when I should or shouldn't give tylenol. Now I am wondering if it is a low supply.
Is it possible after 5 1/2 months of nursing my supply is decreasing? Any advice would help. Thank You
PS I basically demand feed. He has plenty of wet diapers and 1-2 dirty ones a day.
