My 3 weeks old baby doesn't get full with my breast milk, what can i do to ensure that he is full after his feeds? please help...

Define " not full": Many bf moms are confused when baby is still ready to suck after a feeding or fusses until fed again. The fact is many babies will suck 24/7 because they are wired to get pleasure from suckling. That helps them learn to feed when they have never been hungry.If a kid feeds 10min/side 7-8x/day & wets diapers every 4-6hr they are getting enough.Adding formula eventually reduces your milk supply.
