I know it’s really tough, but please don’t lose hope! It’s normal to have low milk supply in the first few weeks, especially if you’re still getting the hang of breastfeeding and pumping. Your baby’s latch is the most important, and as long as he’s latched on demand, he’s getting the nutrition he needs. Yung 5-10mL na pump output mo is okay for now. As for the wet nappies, it can take time for everything to regulate. Keep offering the breast, stay hydrated, and rest if you can. If you're still worried, maybe talk to a lactation consultant for more support.
