Breastfeeding question!!!?

Hello,
I've been breastfeeding my 1 week 3 day old daughter since she was born, but when I pump I only produce 1-2 oz. Is there something wrong!?!

nothing is wrong. it takes time to get the hang of nursing, for both mom and baby. your daughter gets more milk when she actually nurses rather than when you pump. be patient.

not at all:) Your body is just adjusting right now.

No that happened to me.
Pump more, and eventually you will start getting alot more.
You baby can get a better hold then the pump. no worries keep working at it.

your baby is way better at getting milk then any pump even a hospital grade pump. your actually doing good by getting 1-2 oz. just keep breastfeeding and your supply will be fine. Nothing is wrong.

Nope, nothings wrong. 1-2 oz is great for just over a week. As you get used to pumping you will be able to get more out. Remember to get comfy, relax and look at baby when you pump, it should help. Baby gets so much more milk out than your pump can. I wouldn't even bother pumping right now. It's better not to introduce bottles until about 6 weeks or so. Just relax, don't over think breastfeeding. Nurse on demand and try not to supplement and everything will be fine. Congrats on the baby and nursing. Remember that breast milk is supply and demand so whenever baby is hungry, put her on the breast. If you end up giving a bottle, pump in it's place. It's easier just to nurse I've found.

your body will make enough milk for your baby it will just know dont worry and enjoy her!
i breast feed my baby during the night cause its so much easier and bottle feed him during the day because he eats so much its what ever works for you
congratulations x

What is normal when it comes to pumping output and changes in pumping output?

Most moms who are nursing full-time are able to pump around 1/2 to 2 ounces total (for both breasts) per pumping session. Moms who pump more milk per session may have an oversupply of milk, or may respond better than average to the pump, or may have been able to increase pump output with practice. Many moms think that they should be able to pump 4-8 ounces per pumping session, but even 4 ounces is an unusually large pumping output.

It is quite normal to need to pump 2-3 times to get enough milk for one feeding for baby (remember that the pump cannot get as much milk as a baby who nurses effectively).

Many moms are able to pump more milk per session when they are separated from baby. Milk pumped when you are nursing full-time is "extra" milk -- over and beyond what baby needs. Don't get discouraged if you are trying to build up a freezer stash when nursing full time and don't get much milk per pumping session -- this is perfectly normal and expected.

It is very common to have more milk than baby needs in the early weeks, which regulates down to baby's needs over the first few weeks or months. When your milk supply regulates (this change may occur either gradually or rather suddenly), it is normal for pumping output to decrease. For moms who have oversupply, this change often occurs later (6-9+ months postpartum rather than 6-12 weeks).

It is normal for pumping output to vary from session to session and day to day. Having an occasional low volume day is not unusual.

perfectly normal. my baby is 3 months and i still only get that much sometimes.

the baby is getting more out than the pump.

Your breastmilk is not well established yet. It takes up to 4 weeks for that. Your baby should not yet be receiving a bottle because of the risk of nipple preference. Nurse only- save the pumping for after week 4.

Note that the amount your pump is able to draw out of your breasts is NOT the amount your breast actually have. Baby is best at getting the milk out.

Nurse on demand- and do not supplement with bottles until after week 4 and you will be fine.

Good luck!

Wow, that's a lot of milk to be pumping for such a young baby.

Pumps are not accurate. Your baby will always get more from you than from a pump. You should never take how much you pump to be an indication of how much you really make.

I'd suggest you put away the pump for another 6 weeks until the two of you settle into a good rhythm and have the nursing thing down pat.
