1 week & 5 days old newborn

Sino po dito until now mababa padin ang milk supply despite doing in between pumps na mha 5-10mL lng nakukuha but latch on demand nmn sya? Parang nwawalan na ako ng lakas ng loob mg breastfeed.. until now max of wet nappies per day lng siya tpos my urate crystals padin sa wiwi niya..😔

Many moms go through this at the start, so try not to get discouraged. Your baby’s latch is doing its job even if you're not pumping much. Just keep offering the breast on demand, and your supply will likely increase in the coming weeks. Urate crystals can happen in the first few days as baby’s kidneys are still adjusting. If you’re still concerned, maybe try talking to a lactation consultant or your pediatrician for extra guidance and support.
