Yall, since like noon today my baby has wanted to be attached at the boob. He will go maybe 40 minutes before wanting to latch again and he will throw a fit if not. He’s been eating for 10 minutes each time as we have been dealing with spitting up so if he eats longer than this he will immediately spit up his food. ...
My baby is pretty codependent on nursing for everything & I mean everything. Eating, teething, pacifier. She needs it to go to sleep & wakes up rooting for it is there a way to help her soothe without needing me so much? It gets difficult to escape & her things done around the house. She 5months 1 week & never like...
My baby is now 6 weeks and I have been combo feeding for the last 2 weeks But my milk supply has gone down so much and I can just about only get 2 oz a day as the pump i have involves me needed both hands free and findibg the time ro do that multiple times a day is hard! I dont know if i should try hands free pumps ...
My 8wk old was taking both breast and bottle but mainly breast. But now she is just refusing the breast and she cries soo much that I end up giving her a bottle as she’ll fall asleep crying hungry! She only takes my breast when she’s really sleepy other than that she refuses. What can I do to get her to go on the br...
This isn’t exactly a poll, but I’m super scared about having surgery soon and I’m EBF my 4 month old that I don’t want ruined because I developed stupid gallstones 😭 I don’t know what to do, I don’t even know what questions to ask the consultant on Tuesday regarding the whole breastfeeding situation 😭 I’m just…
Hey someone help I breastfeed and do pump and do a bottle at night was more before sometimes done a bottle when we was out too but recently he’s so unsettled with the bottle and won’t drink it all and wants my boob after any tips or bottles that mimic a nipple I tried warming to see if it’s temp but he still be fuss...
Hello, FTM here so everything is new to me! I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and have noticed that my nipples have like a crusty white/cream residue on the tip. I don’t really wear bras all the time and can’t say I’ve noticed any leaking on my clothes but how can I tell that my boobs are just leaking milk or if I s...
I'm using voice to text because I am with baby, and I don't want her to rush to the phone whenever she sees the phone in my hand. But I wanted to ask how many times per day you guys breastfeed your babies? I've noticed today that if I go a long time between giving her boo it's a 4 hours she tends to eat more food. S...
I’ve started a birth control patch at 8 weeks postpartum and it seems that my milk supply is not the same. The side effects of the birth control mentioned this is a possibility. Any tips on how to improve milk supply?
My little boy is still feeding at least every 1.30-2 hours. I’m trying with weaning and offering food but he just grazes but will happily take milk after barely eating the food. Anyone else still breastfeeding so often?
has anyone thats breastfeeding actually lost weight because of it? and when did you start to see a change? it doesn’t seem to be working for me lol
I would really like an electric hands free breastpump! I tried the momcozy m5 one but it didn’t work after the first use and I ended up returning. What is everyone’s favourite brands that have worked for 10 months+ ? I’d like to breastfeed for 24 months (I’m on 7 weeks atm) and want a pump that’ll last as much of...
Has anybody tried giving their breast fed baby breast milk in a cup? My baby refuses the bottle and I'm desperately trying anything as we have a wedding to go to in 3 months where babies aren't allowed. I've seen online that medela do one, has anybody tried this? TIA
I breastfed my daughter for 21 months, so hoping to do the same for my second baby (due next month). I used nipple cream in the first few months- especially as she was born with tongue tie so it was very painful until we had it separated. This time round, I’m considering getting some silver cups as heard these are...
I’m almost 7 months pregnant and my bf and the father of my child had another kid (little girl) in a previous relationship. So all of his experience with pregnancy and being a father comes from that kid and that woman. Today I saw something about putting cereal and rice in a babies bottle. I learned that the only re...
so me and my partner the other day was saying how the nipple area of our baby boy is huge and we sort of joked it off thinking that was just his build but I was just properly looking and I’m not actually sure if this is normal? It almost looks as if it’s swollen but both sides are the same so I’m not sure??
What is everyone giving milk and she will take water from the 360 cup but not milk. I’ve also tried the munchkin transition cup - pic attached. She also won’t take it from a timer tippy sippy cup. I’m thinking of something that’s maybe more similar to a normal bottle?? She’s currently still having it from her dr b...
Hello, I was wondering when it’s ok to introduce a dummy? I’ve been told it’s good for breastfeeding babies to reduce SIDs but not to do it until milk is established?
My baby is sleeping 5-6 hours at the start of the night (very lucky I know (also know it most likely won’t last)) should I be pumping during this time to stop any drop in my supply? Any of you in the same boat? Baby feeds every 2-3 hours apart from that one chunk If you do pump, best affordable pump?
Hey, since a couple months I’ve noticed that one boob is significantly bigger than the other. I do feed from both, and was wondering if anyone else experiencing something similar? 🫢
