I’m day 5 and not engorged at all anymore. I’m scared it’s low supply not that theve regulated already.
Has anyone else not been able to get a single drop of colostrum :( I’ve tried every method possible and I’m just not producing. Currently 37+3. Obviously I will keep trying because I know it can come in at any point but have any of you ladies had positive breastfeeding experiences after not being able to harvest co...
I keep feeling my boobs and then get worried as they feel more lumpy than normal. I am breast feeding mostly. Anyone the same?
I'm 4 months PP and stopped breastfeeding around 2 months but I'm eager to start again. I know I'll have to pump religiously around the clock to build up my supply again but has anyone successfully re lactated after stopping breastfeeding? Any tips would help ☺️
I read online that newborns should be drinking 1-2 oz of milk per feeding but mine drinks almost 5 oz of milk per feeding now and is 1 week old. Is this normal?
I’m only getting like 3-4 oz per pump session at work as my little one is eating like 5 oz at a time rn. She is 2months old now. I’m back to work and I pump every 2 hrs at work. I start my shift at 6 so I pump at 8,10 and then I pump again at 12 and that is my last one until I get home/ right before bed. I’m startin...
If I put freshly expressed milk in a bottle and baby doesn’t finish it all at once can I let him finish it later (if it’s within the 4 hours that fresh milk can be stored safely at room temp)?
My baby has been exclusively nursed for almost 3 months but I need to introduce a bottle soon as I have a weekend away in March and need to get in a new routine plus her being able to take a bottle from dad. She’s currently up every 2-3 hours feeding in the night. Mornings are chaotic because we do a lot of baby cla...

He also wakes many times during the nights for it, and it’s effecting his eating of...

Is it ok to just go cold turkey from breastfeeding or will it cause me to become unwell?
My colostrum just came in yesterday when will I start producing more because I feel like it should be more coming out
My baby takes 5oz per feed but I’m only pumping 3-4oz at a time. Sometimes even less if I’m busy / dehydrated. Wondering if it’s even worth carrying on.
How many bottles does your baby drink in a day now they’re weaning? We are only on 4 bottles and shes only at most 20oz in a day atm. Should I be giving her an extra feed? She’s on 3 meals at day but doesn’t eat a huge amount for breakfast and lunch.
My pediatrician recommended oat milk instead of cows milk .. what kind of milk is your babies on ?
Looking for pump recommendations and where to buy them! Currently have the mom cozy m5 but I don’t feel as though it’s empties me enough.. I think I might need a wall pump also.
