BLW and milk feeds

[Rowesb]

Toby isvery established in meals already and has started to drop his milk feeds, which I'm not sure if he is too early, and how many milk feed he should be having, as my supply is definately going...
... what is you general pattern?

Paige has started to do this. she used to have around 6 bottled a day, sometimes more, but the past week or so shes having hardly any of her feeds so now Im doing bottle when she wakes up, the breakfast, bottle midmorning, lunch, bottle midafternoon, dinner, bottle before bed.

Maybe leave a slightly longer stretch between feeds so he will be eating more at the fewer feeds, or express a bit just to keep your supply up?

I have been expressing last thing at night before I go to bed for my back to work stash, and pumped this morning, but I think that is the one that has made me think as last night he went from 7-6am, by that point I would be leaking full but I was still floppy!!

I thought I had a bit more time to allow me to get a decent supply to store so it would take the pressure off, but I don't know now if me feeding and working is just going to be unrealistic

Maybe just keep a few feeds. Im not really clued up on BF tbh as I stopped very early on. But would your body not get used to just a few feeds a day? Or would this drastically effect your supply (as it seems it may already be doing )
