Right. I’ve recently had it done, they look great as you are all probably wondering. My boyfriend’s sister, thinks that this is not safe to do so while breast feeding. Now, I’m not denying there’s somethings online that say not to do it, but there is also a lot of things that say that it’s perfectly fine. So debat...

My baby was diagnosed with CMPA on Wednesday and since then he has been in dairy free formula and I have given up eating dairy as still breastfeeding. His skin this morning is worse than ever. Is that normal even though he isn’t consuming any milk?

Hi I’m expecting my 2nd but still nursing my first (17months) I’ve noticed my breastmilk is coming out very slow and also on one side it’s turned clear. Does anyone know what this is. I read online clear discharge could be a sign of breast cancer but I’m not sure because I’m breastfeeding and pregnant.

Does anyone know if breastfeeding has any correlation to getting your periods regularly post partum? I'm eight months pp and they're realky irregular, someone told me it's because I'm still nursing and will be okay once i stop

Trying to order a nursing bra but should I wait until after my milk comes in?? My boobs have almost like doubled in size during pregnancy but can they still grow even more once breast milk comes in or are they done growing ? Help 😭😭😭

I’m about 4 and a half months postpartum and just got my first period back which I wasn’t expecting! I always heard if you breastfeed you don’t get your period back and even though I knew it was possible this still just seems so soon! Anyone else? But anyway I seemed to drop my milk supply significantly, I used to p...

I had a very difficult birth. I planned for a homebirth, but two weeks before, I developed sciatica and hip pain that required crutches. When my waters broke, In labour experienced intense contractions within mins, but no dilation for four days—only excruciating hip pain. I ended up needing an emergency C-section. T...

Baby is 3 month old, EBF. I am going back to work next month, so I want to express milk so that dad can feed when I am not at home. The first attempt was a disaster - baby cried the lungs out and fell asleep with an empty belly. Any advice?

Hi, im looking for a hands free breast pump. Mom cozy brand is way out of my budget. Do you guys know any good ones? For a cheaper price? I just saw this ones for 35 dlls but they’re from shein so I don’t trust that much lol even tho the reviews are good.

Hello, I had a planned section yesterday and got home this evening. Baby will not settle. He won’t stay in his next to me crib. So I’m sat up with him. I’m trying to breast feed and he seems to be wanting feeding every hour. I’m sure he’s trying to get use to his surroundings. Any advice welcome. Thanks

Y’ALL why am I just now trying this? If you’re breastfeeding I cannot recommend the side lying position enough- especially for the late night/early morning feed. Like, why did no one tell me?? 😅

My son is turning 1 tomorrow but I feel like my body hasn’t fully recovered from the pain from breastfeeding pumping or really giving birth. Anyone else feel tension in their neck back shoulders and pelvic floor? I’m doing yoga 2x a week, daily stretches and resting a lot since my son sleeps through the night now bu...

Why are they so goofy 😂 my first refused to latch so he nicely bottle fed. Now this one is EBF and the kid is dancing while latched, flopping around, propping his leg up on my shoulder, anything and everything. Then when they unlatch and they're falling asleep they want to pinch you and yank on your nips. It hurts…

I’m a busty gal and have tried kindred bravely. I can’t jump without my tatas feeling like they’re going to go fly away. I’d like something that doesn’t just support the bottom but the top too. I’m new to having these large breastfeeding boobs.

First time mom here! My daughter is coming close to her first birthday. She drinks breastmilk and food throughout the day. I have an entire freezer stashed away for her and I don't want to throw it and I want to continue with breastmilk. I have a hard time understanding cows milk and why they recommended switching t...

Hi all. I wonder if you could give me a guesstimate of how much expressed breast milk a baby should consume per hour? My partner and I are due to go out in a few weeks to the theatre so I need to ensure my parents have enough to feed our little one while we are gone. Thank you in advance of any replies!

When is the best time to express milk? Between feeds or during a feed? My baby only drinks from one breast at each feed so left boob now and next feed right boob and so on., I don’t want to increase my supply I just want to keep some of it in freezer for emergencies or outings in case I go somewhere I don’t want to ...

My baby is 19 months and i don't know how to latch her off she cries and cries for the boob and refuses a bottle any tips ?
