  Babies eat all the time. At this age just keep feeding him. Your body makes more than you can pump, baby nursing is way different than a pump. Be sure he is burping good. That will make him fussy fast. What is making you think he isn't getting enough

  Hun babies at 2 weeks stil hav a small tummy so 2-2 1/2 oz r about what bbies that age eat evry 2-3hrs. Bf bbies seem to eat more cuz they digest breastmilk faster. Maybe keep breastfeeding without supplemnting an speak with a lactation consultant b4 u throw in the towel.. sounds like Ur doin pretty good tho

  Well I hope so cuz he gets really mad at me and he drinks 3.5 to 4 oz every 2hrs and if he doesn't get it he gets pissed.

  Don't give up lady.. I know its frustrating but it gets better, trust me.. I was so frustrated at first during the first two wks now were on a roll at 9 wks .. are you pumping? Pumping isn't a good way to measure how much milk you have, just jerk feeding baby at the boob, it may feel like baby is always Eatting but it gets better.. your baby knows how much he needs, hence why he would want to eat so much, he's letting your body know he needs more. So don't let pumping tell you how much milk you have. Plus bf babies breakdown their milk faster, they eat sooner than a formula fed baby would...s
