I think I have decided to stop breastfeeding, my little one is 3 months, my milk supply is really low and has been since the beginning but now it’s barely there. I just want reassurance that everything will be okay, my baby will be okay and I’m doing the right thing. I don’t have the mental battle in me to pump all ...
Currently struggling with breastfeeding my 3 day old baby. His sucking is good but can’t latch well. 1/10 tries he’d latch but pinches my nipple bc of not full latch and it hurts so bad. And cries whenever I try placing his mouth to my boob. His cry freaks me out so I’d try only a few mins…😥 it feels like I’m not…
Please could I have everyone’s recommendations on hands free pumps
My husband resents me for pumping milk for my baby. I wasn't able to latch him due to hypersensitivity. But breastfeeding is important to me. I'm okay supplementing with formula but I want him to have real milk for at least six months. My husband hates it and just wants to do formula. I know it's inconvenient that I...
My daughter that is almost 7 months old on the 28th of this month. She keeps unlatching and wants to look around and I try to rematch her but she keeps unlatching or pulling on my nipple. We’ve been supplementing with formula at least once a day but now it might be going back up to twice a day but I don’t want to go...
Hey soon to be AND established parents-is similac okay/have yall used it and your babies like it? I’m just not sure what the research is on it but we use it here at our hospital on my mother baby unit where I work. I plan to use it with direct breastfeeding to combo feed :) thank you in advance!!
Hey all, I’ve been breastfeeding exclusively since my little girl was born. But for the last 4 days my it’s very low. Is there a reason for this, she hasn’t been weaning just yet. I’ve only given her formula for bedtime and nights. But feeling really lost rn anyone else going through
Those that both breast and bottle feed (breastmilk or formula!), what bottles do you use? My little one is ebf but I feel ready to stop and he refuses a bottle. I’m desperate to get him to take a bottle!
I’m having lots of nipple pain mostly after breastfeeding and pumping, it’s my fault bc I used a small flange but I switched it up. It feels sharp and pinching and kinda warm to touch. What should I do!?
Has anyone breastfed after Botox treatment. I’m thinking to get my top up and currently combination feeding my 8 week old
Has anyone dropped a night pump and had their supply stay same or increase? I’m 10 weeks pp and have been doing 8ppd since birth, but I’m thinking of dropping to 7ppd when I get to 12 weeks. I’m an over supplier and make about 55-57oz per day, which has helped me build a great freezer stash. My goal is to stop pu...
Still breastfeeding my 15 month old daughter but wanting to wean her. She’s only on about 3/4 short feeds a day but at night she uses me like a dummy. She wakes up on average twice a night and will not settle without me. She’s not feeding just comfort sucking. Can’t get her out of it at all. Myself and my partner ha...
My Dr and a breastfeeding Dr have assured me and made me feel quite pressured that I should breastfeed and it’ll be totally safe. However I am really apprehensive as I take ALOT of medication and I am going to be starting more medication after the birth of baby. I am currently taking: Inhixa Bisoprolol Nifedipine...
Thinking about Pumping breastmilk for my baby and can’t decide whether to get aa manual or an electric pump. Is there any much difference in how much milk they get out? Is it painful? And how do they work😅
What milk are we feeding 12 months year olds? Did you transition them first. Please some advice!
How is everyone collecting colostrum? Pump or hand?
How does everyone do it. I haven’t got a pump routine as of yet and I would like to have some more back up milk. During the night I do breastfeed and if my partner feeds him he’ll give my son a bottle of formula because I do get extremely tired, plus I might pump if my boobs feel full. To get a little stash going do...
I've discovered I have high lipase breast milk, which gives it a funny taste after it's been stored even if it's only been in the fridge for a few hours. I've been exclusively breastfeeding and I still wanted to give her expressed milk when she goes to nursery, but I'm not sure if it's going to work out. Just wonder...
What are you all wearing at night to hold nipple pads onto?
My MIL took it up son herself to give my 8 month old son semi skimmed milk, as “well he didn’t like your breast milk, milk is milk isn’t it” 🤦🏻♀️ anyone know what possible side effects I m going to get, iv ready it’s not good for them before a year!
