My daughter is 10 weeks old and she has been nursing like a champ from the beginning!! I have questions though about me having what I think is an oversupply of milk. She has been sleeping through the night (usually 8-9 hours) for the past few weeks now but I still wake up horribly engorged. I thought that after awhile it would calm down??? I nurse her when she wakes up, she only nurses on one side, and then I pump. On the side she nursed from I usually get 2 or 3 ounces, and on the side she didn't nurse from I pump 7 or 8 ounces. Is this normal? Or is this always going to happen?? I only pump that one time each day, so it is nice to have that 9-10 ounces to freeze each day, but it is not fun to wake up to that pain! Plus, since I'm so full when I nurse her that first time in the AM she is like choking on the milk because there's so much, and then she ends up spitting up a lot of that feeding...
Any advice?? Thanks in advance!
