I feel like I have run out of milk every evening. I tried to switch my baby from one side to another but she seemed impatient and refused to suck. I would try for an hour and succumb to giving her expressed breast milk. I don't know if she is gaining weight or not because the next check up is 2 weeks from now. As for her diaper count, she used up about 5-6 diapers per day.

These worked for me when my baby had this issue.
