Well I have been breastfeeding my baby for 6 months now (my third baby but first who I have successfully breastfed, yay to me) and am a bit confused about my situation and what I should do.

J has started becoming so unsettled all the time. He feeds off my breast for a few minutes and and then cries. I will then squeeze the breast and nothing comes out! I still get a slight letdown feeling so know there is a bit of milk there. Being my third baby this is becoming very draining and hard on my other kids also. I have introduced solids but with milk still being so important I want to make sure he is getting enough!

Part of me wonders whether putting him on the bottle would be the best option for us but I'm just not sure! What are my options? I just don't want to regret it but I just can't keep going like this either!

Has he always emptied you? If he hasnt, you might be slowly making less & less milk, resulting in a letdown that you cant feel as much, & slower flow (something my DD2 REALLY wasnt happy with lol).

What you do is your decision. I always tried to build my supply up by eating certain foods to help, and expressing after feeds & an hour after feeds. It did help, but by 13 months old DD had enough & so had I smile

You could maybe try some fenugreek or fennel tea to give your supply a boost?? But like pp said, your supply may be decreasing slowly sad
