Newborn is 4 days old

I’m only able to pump combined amount ( from both boobs ) of around 60ml per session. Baby is hungry faster than my bm supply. Is this normal? How much is the normal output of bm in day 4?

Hi... try to breastfeed your child. Breastfeed via direct latching will increase your milk supply. Drinking more water and maternal milk might help too.

Actually I been latching him since day 1- day 4 in the hospital , but my nipple is very swollen and cracked now so I have no choice but to stop and apply creams etc for it to heal first... hence I am pumping for now :(
