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!
My little one is 8 months old, and due to heart condition impacting weight gain, is now on high energy milk - I am still pumping to mix some of my milk with this milk. The paediatrician has told me today little one will continue on the high energy, and I have a massive freezer stash, so I want to stop pumping. I onl...
So from yesterday I have a big lump in one breast. I went to Gp they said mastitis, symptoms : swollen, burn but not red, no fever. On Internet done people said don't feed from that breast first only desert for baby from that breast because the milk ducts are inflamed it's not really milk there which cause the lump...
Which is the best electric pump? I like the idea of these wearable ones but they have some bad reviews about leaking milk
Hi I am looking for some advice, my baby is 4mo and in the past two weeks he would only sleep sucking my breast. When I try to gentle remove it he wakes up and start again. Nights are very tricky. I tried a dummy, won’t take it. I don’t want to stop breastfeeding but my nipples are now very sore. Anyone did go throu...
I’m having such boob pain 😩 do think cooling breast pads will help? What do you recommend?
Hi ladies, My little one is 12months and I am going back to work very soon but still breastfeeding (aside from her solid meals) Looking for advice/tips on what worked for you. I’m starting to stress out and not sure how it’s going to work as i may have to go into the office and the little one never took to a bottle.
My baby is EBF. Just wondering if it’s better to do porridge with breast milk or cows milk? If I use breast milk can I microwave it to make the porridge? My baby is 6.5 months :)
Just wondering if I am alone in feeling like this. My lg is 8m and ebf, it was a really tough journey at the start but after 3 months it became easier but recently I’m starting to feel quite touched out and a bit jealous of my friends who are bottle feeding and their babies are on 3/4 bottles a day now whereas I’m s...
My little boy used to take a bottle of expressed milk since birth, he is now 3 months and refuses he just wants boob. I would like to get him back to being able to take the bottle as I ideally would like to get my hair done and not worry that he will be hungry whilst I'm gone for a couple hours. Has anyone been in ...
My 10 month old is EBF. I've been trying for months to get her to take a bottle or at least have my pumped milk from a straw cup but she just won't drink it. She drinks water from a straw but won't take milk! I'm starting work in less than 2 months time and I'm so worried! Has anyone been in my situation? What did ...
Is it worth it? I want to get one for my one year in june or for Mother’s Day but I’m not sure if the pricier ones are long lasting etc. if you got one where did you get it made?
I have been pumping for 8 months now, I'm a low supplier and only get milk from one side. But the last 3 days I'm getting barely anything. I haven't changed my diet and don't feel stressed or anything. I usually pump around 40 mins. But I have to do a 2nd pump straight afterwards to get the amount I normally get. I...
