How long does it take for the breast to fill up again after feeding?
Actually, the breasts are never completely empty because milk is produced non-stop before, during and after breastfeeding. So, there is no need to wait between feedings for the breasts to fill up again.
In fact, long pauses between feedings actually signal the breasts to produce less milk and not more milk, as quoted from the Babygooroo page.
An understanding of milk production makes it easier for mothers to identify potential problems and possible solutions. You can be sure your baby is getting enough to eat if he has poop and wet diapers and is gaining at least 5 ounces every week during the early months.
There are steps a mother can take to increase her milk production if needed. To get started, Mothers can consult a doctor or lactation consultant and join a community that supports breastfeeding.
It takes Mother’s year, pregnancy and accompanying hormones that stimulate the growth of breast tissue. The placenta produces estrogen and progesterone, and these two hormones keep the breasts from overproducing.
After the baby is born and the placenta is born, the levels of this hormone drop and prolactin signals the breasts to make more milk over the next few days.
At this point, your breasts are depending on your baby to help perfect the milk sequence so they can produce the right amount of milk. The baby draws milk from the breast, the more milk is removed, the faster it is replaced.
