I have two daughters. The younger one is 5 months old. I always get worried by my baby satisfaction while breastfeeding. I dont understand if milk prodution is good enough so that my baby wont get hungry. How much or say how minutes per feed she should do breasfeeding? What should i eat for good milk glands to work properly?

the big challenge wen you milk is insufficient and later abundance supply. one more thing is to remember to feed in both sides. it teaches you calculations and balancing. tough but amazing experience.

ofcourse, its a challenge for new mom to handle your kid as everything is new to you & to your baby too..most challenging part of mine was night feeding in starting waking up in every 1-2 hour and feed den sleep den again wakeup...hoshhhhh quit tough for me only in starting phase

Being a mother of two children of 3 years and 15 months, my journey of breast feeding started since 2019 August, and its still continuing for both of my children. despite a break for 4 days during my 2nd c section, I am continuing my journey of breast feeding for around 3 yrs. Even though the journey was a little bit difficult for several months of my second pregnancy, it was a great experience and I am so grateful that I could overcome those tough situations by gods grace.
Anyhow I overcome those situation by a strong belief that, as far as I am breast feeding my children they are less vulnerable to most of common diseases , Moreover it was so true that they are having good immunity by gods grace.
so it's a small piece of advice from my part, dear moms and mom to be, breast feed ur children as far as u can, because it is the most precious gift u could give ur little one at this early stage.

I am a lactation consultant.. so my journey was easy in terms of concept and execution.
I myself had 3rd day of milk let down till then I was patient enough to rooming in and skin to skin contact my baby.
After it there was no looking back

I m mother of twins and there were lot of struggle during breast feeding as I was in bed rest during my pregnancy which caused lots of trouble in me after the birth of my babies in sitting and feeding one by one to both but I fed them day night sitting all the time in one chair while I needed the rest I was sitting and feeding them as they needed the feed most

As feeding and then second babies in meanwhile first was ready to take feed again
So I used breast pump and gave them sometimes only as at night it was struggling but I did everything for them

since I was new to motherhood journey I dint had any idea about postpartum journey,as all moms even I had faced that low feeling during first few months of postpartum but I couldn't say that as a depression,when I started with breastfeeding I had faced lot of issues,like I was not comfortable to feed,sore nipples, latching issues,etc but me and my baby overcome all issues gradually and we got to know each other very well.So still I m a feeding my baby happily and enjoying this journey 😊
