The last couple days in the late afternoon/early evening, my dd has been more fussy than usual. Tonight, I nursed her at 6:30 (felt the let down, know she got milk) - she finished on both sides & started fussing a lot & crying. I tried different things to calm her, nothing worked, then decided to make 2 oz of formula in a bottle - just to see if maybe she was still hungry. She gulped them right down, then ate 3 more oz & was happy again. This has never happened before...
She's been mostly ebf (only an occasional bottle of formula when I'm not there & there's not enough frozen breastmilk to give her) up to now & I've never had supply issues. She nurses 5 times per day - around 7:30 am, 11:30, 3:00, 6:30 & 9:30 pm. She has some solids immediately after nursing 2 times/day.
Is it possible she just needs more food all of a sudden? Should I up her solids intake? Or, is it possible to suddenly have a drop in my supply? I'm confused about what to do & appreciate any advice anyone has!
Thanks!
