hi feeding is to be on demand only.  please make some time to express milk since you are having leakage. each feed should be one breast at a time and alternate breasts with alternate feeds so you can express one breast and feed one that should help you manage better.

Hi! Give as per demand. i never woke up baby. Only when he asked i gave. For leaking, dont worry too much. With practice you shoukd be able to express. Later baby will also get un a routine. Use breastpads too

hey anon try and feed every 2 and half hours since baby is young. if her pee count is 6-7&nbsp; a day and weight gain is okay, then she is fine. <br> leaky breasts can only be managed either by expressing some milk or you can use breastpads (although if they are leaking too much I am not sure how helpful it maybe)
