A. hi...At 23 days old, the baby will cry for many reasons. You had created such a comfortable place for the baby before birth, and suddenly the baby is out here in the big world, where it's sometimes cold, hot, humid and what not. The baby can also cry for comfort, they just want someone to pick them up. I am not saying hunger is completely ruled out, cos these babies have very small tummies. They feed less at every session and then pee/poop and they are again hungry. Watch out for signs of gas, give the baby some tummy time, preferably on the father's chest. It will help with their bonding, and will give you some rest. At 23 days, you both are still getting to know each other. Don't worry too much about supply, it will stabilize over next few weeks. Feed on demand, and eat a good, balanced diet. You can supplement your diet with shatavari, if you choose to. 🙂
