Everything was going fine until the past few days and now Frankie has been having a hard time nursing. I looked on kellymom and it sounds like a forceful letdown: kellymom.com :: Forceful Let-down (Milk Ejection Reflex) & Oversupply since he has about 5 of the "symptoms".

Anyone else have this happen all of a sudden? I have no idea why it would change like this and it's freaking me out that he isn't nursing as much as he used to - now he nurses maybe a total of 5-10 minutes on one side (rarely both) every few hours compared to about 10 minutes on each side. He seems content throughout the day but it just seems like a big change and I can't help but worry. Plus, his crying while nursing breaks my heart.
