Aiyooo, jangan risau sangat lah! Baby weight drop dalam minggu pertama tu normal, especially kalau tengah transition dari mix feeding ke fully breastfeeding, ada adjustment period untuk both of you. Masa awal-awal ni, sometimes berat turun dulu baru naik steady, tak langsung naik je.
Few things worth checking: make sure baby's latching betul-betul (sometimes tu yang jadi masalah, bukan supply), kalau hisap shallow je, memang berat boleh jadi turun even though feeding sering. Someone in my mum group mentioned her baby also dropped a bit when she switched fully to bf, but it stabilised after about a week or so. Berat turun 3% or 4% from birth weight tu still within normal range actually, just monitor dia closely lah.
Honestly kalau tengah dalam hari ke-3 switching, maybe give it another 1-2 weeks before you get too worried, banyak time lagi untuk baby settle. Tapi definitely worth checking with your PD or lactation consultant just to make sure latch and milk transfer okay, especially since you just made the switch. They can observe feeding and give peace of mind!
