Igoraroyal, Try sitting froggy style on your hands and knees. Babies are top heavy so they will often turn when you do it. The leaning forward will also ensure they have enough room to turn. Maybe do it with a little rocking. It probably is a little early to be worrying about it, but it's good to get him/her comfortable in the position. I'm only 24 weeks and have already started doing it.

Youll know hes getting something if hes pooping and peeing regularly. If hes not, then hes probably not getting enough.

I was taught to give baby 15 min on each breast, every 2-3 hours or as needed. If baby fell asleep to try to keep her awake by taking blankets and clothes off her and briskly rubbing her with a wet wipe. When finished, you could try to pump just to stimulate breast further, and if baby still wants to keep succling, keep her on breast as long and as often as you can to esablish strong milk supply. If you give her formula,she may prefer the bottles nipple to your own bc it is easier, so avoid doin this all together if you want your supply up. 2 day olds have tiny stomaches, and dont need much. Trust your body, look on kelly mom formore tips! Good luck!

It takes a few days for your milk to come. Think mine was day 4 or 5! My back, neck and shoulders ached so bad then it came

I have high BP and protein in urine as well, im 35+4 and using medicamentation for BP.Because of those problems baby doesnt growth is slower and behind.
I received injection for babys lungs maturation.
Dr telling me if we can survive at least one more week would be safer.
Which point they decide to take the baby, depends on BP so high????

If you only had him a couple of days ago, chances are your milk isn't in yet and your still only producing colostrum. If your concerned speak to a lactation consultant.
