    • I didn't bf for long, but my guess is yes, that's what my LC did with me when ds was just 1mo, I didn't have enough then

    • actually it does not necessarily mean ANYTHING about your supply. BUt it certainly means db is not getting anything much from you. Again, supply is unknown; intake is clearly inadequate. This could be helped by better latch, positioning, etc. IN the meanwhile you have to supplement with either bm or formula.
