Food Coma We took Claire to her first doctor's appointment on Monday... as we suspected, it seems that my milk has not fully come in yet and Claire wasn't getting enough to eat. That's why she was sleeping all day and crying all night. I had an appointment with a lactation consultant at the hospital that same day and they put me on a plan to breastfeed her, and then supplement with formula while also pumping for some time after each feeding to try to increase my milk supply.
She had another doctor appointment today and she gained 4 ounces in two days. She's a much happier baby now -- she actually has awake time where she's just 'awake' and not screaming and she let me sleep for 3 hours last night. Diaper changes are now mostly drama-free, though that seems like a limited time offer, so you really have to get it done while the gettin's good.
