My 4 weeks old baby only cries when awake !!

Ftm here, My lo is 4 weeks old now. And since i can remember she only cries whenevr she is awake. She plays for only 15-20 mins everyday and rest of the time she either sleeps or is very cranky and keeps on crying .

Also she cries after feeding too while sometimes she sleeps. She also takes about 40 mins everytime she feeds ! My breastmilk supply is low so is it that she is not full after feeding?

Pls help me i can’t figure out what’s wrong ? Should i start combo feeding ?

12 days pp with extremely low milk supply

I am 12days pp & have very low milk supply. I can say this bcoz my whenever i try to express it manually it comes in drops & not like what i have seen in other people.

Bcoz of low supply my baby is always hungry. Both in day & night once she cries straight for 2-3 hours straight & keeps on feeding, whenevr i put her down to sleep she gets up & starts crying again.

I don’t know what to do its soo difficult & heartbreaking to watch my baby cry inconsolably.

What can i do to increase my supply & anybody else faced their baby crying non-stop for hours demanding to be fed ??

Its been 7 days since my baby girl is born. I am struggling with extremely low milk supply. Initially there was little to no milk but since last 2-3 days it is coming in drops & my lo is not all satisfied with the feed, hence i have to rely on formula too which i give her twice in a day.

Any tips on how to increase the supply pls ?

MIL’s obsession with Boy child.

I am currently 36 weeks pregnant and could deliver my baby within the next two weeks. Throughout my pregnancy, there hasn’t been a single day when my mother-in-law hasn’t said that it should be a boy and not a girl because, according to her, every family needs a son. She says that having a girl is optional, but having a boy is a must.

She constantly tells me that having a son is a blessing. Every time I hear these comments, I feel filled with anger. I absolutely hate listening to her constant remarks and outdated beliefs.

What makes it even more upsetting is that she lost her first child, who was a baby girl, during delivery. She now has two sons—my husband and his brother—but I would have thought that experience would have made her value every child equally.

As a mother, it breaks my heart to think that if my baby is a girl, she might not be loved or valued as much as a boy. I genuinely resent my mother-in-law for constantly making these comments and adding unnecessary stress during my pregnancy

I am 7 months pregnant rn. And while casually talking my mil told me how she will never let my child be bottle fed. (No formula, no breast pumping, no normal milk in bottle too etc). She thinks it is bad for a baby & we will use glass for the baby once he/she turns 1.

I am already panciking that what if my milk is not enough for my baby as i have read alot of time here that alot of people use combination of breast milk & formula for baby.

Anyone faced similar situation? How did you manage it ?
