It's hard not to worry about stuff like this, isn't it? How often are you feeding? I know with reflux you have to feed small amounts more often... What herbs are you taking?
This has some good suggestions about supply:
http://www.kellymom.com/bf/supply/low-supply.htmlAlso from Kellymom.com - here are some suggestions for reflux:
- Aim for frequent breastfeeding, whenever baby cues to feed. These smaller, more frequent feedings can be easier to digest.
- Try positioning baby in a semi-upright or sitting position when breastfeeding, or recline back so that baby is above and tummy-to-tummy with mom.
- For fussy, reluctant feeders, try lots of skin to skin contact, breastfeeding in motion (rocking, walking), in the bath or when baby is sleepy.
- Ensure good latch to minimize air swallowing.
-Allow baby to completely finish one breast (by waiting until baby pulls off or goes to sleep) before you offer the other. Don't interrupt active suckling just to switch sides. Switching sides too soon or too often can cause excessive spitting up . For babies who want to breastfeed very frequently, try switching sides every few hours instead of at every feed.
- Encourage non-nutritive/comfort sucking at the breast, since non-nutritive sucking reduces irritation and speeds gastric emptying.
- Avoid rough or fast movement or unnecessary jostling or handling of your baby right after feeding. Baby may be more comfortable when help upright much of the time. It is often helpful to burp often.
- As always, watch your baby and follow his cues to determine what works best to ease the reflux symptoms.
How's her weight gain, BTW?
