Breastfeeding

9 wk old, decreased supply?

Hi ladies!
My 9 wk old (tomorrow) seems to be nursing more frequently for shorter amounts of time (8-10min). He's also had a few more green poops and has gone from 5 hour stretches at night to 2 1/2 hour wake ups routinely--of note we have just transitioned to the crib this week. My breasts don't feel full at any point. Also I've noticed my morning pump has decreased from 8+ total oz to maybe 5 or less. (I'm just pumping once a day to build stash for back to work; typically an hour before or after an AM feed).
Any thoughts for us? TIA!

  • Yes great wet and enough dirty diapers. Perhaps the crib transition and lack of swaddle are our MOTN problems. Thank you!
