High sleep needs?

Does anyone else’s little one seem to need so much sleep? My daughter is sleeping 7pm-10/11am and then having a 3 hour nap most days and it seems so strange? I’m not complaining😂 but just wondering if anyone else’s baby sleeps a lot as I’m just worried that it’s not normal? My first wasn’t like this at all 😅

Will pumping affect my milk supply?

I'm exclusively breastfeeding my baby (almost 5 weeks old). My right nipple is so sore & isn't getting a chance to heal.

I don't want to do anything that will make my sup...
