‼️Breastfeeding mommies who pump!‼️
Question: what is your routine as far as when your baby is feeding off your breast vs breast milk you pumped in a bottle? Do you exclusively pump and only feed your baby pumped milk in the bottle? Or do you do breast and bottle for whatever reason? And what is your pump and feeding routine? For example, how do you pump every 2-4 hours if your baby eats every 2-4 hours? T.I.A!!!
Well i dont go over a hour but the mother milk tea helped produce a lot of milk to. I usually pump 5oz. Each boob and thats only bc i have 5oz bottles lol
@forever_1127, oh and how long do you pump for each morning and how many ounces do you get?
Yeahh it really works for me as soon as i wake up feed her and go pee i pump tell they go down and im good tell the next morning and i just repeat! Unless they get to full and ill pump a lip before bed but she usually does good at eating through out the day
@forever_1127, that sounds like a good idea. So you just do it that one time in the morning right?
Yeahh i just do it in the morning bc thats when my boobs fill sore and supper full, and i cant handle it! But you really can make your own schedule your boobs will adapt to it! Since i pump in the morning i have to always pump im the morning bc that when my boobs produce the most milk
You can also pump about an hour after baby eats, put a warm washcloth over your breasts and drink a whole bottle of water while pumping
@myahcarmella, @camillesmom @wyattsmommy91 @forever_1127 thanks ladies! I've just been wondering how I should be doing it. I can't do it every 2-4 hours like baby eats, my nipples can't take it!
I pump every morning and just breastfeed through out the day unless i go somewhere! Or my boyfriend wants to feed her!
I breast fed for a little bit and I pumped while my son was on one boob for 15 mins and once he was done altogether I'd try to burp him put him to bed and pump the other said but we had a hard time with latching cause he was born at 35 weeks so part of his brain wasn't developed that told him how to latch and suck so I started pumping and feeding him from a bottle I pumped manage to pump enough for him.to eat once he ate that and was done I would put him in his bouncer and I'd pump each boob for 15 mins each clean my pump then it was his feeding time again during the day I pumped every 2 hours and at night every 4 hours I pumped.
I pump once a day, I also give her one bottle of pumped milk a day, I do that so my Husband can put her to bed and while he is putting her to bed I'm pumping, but I didn't start pumping everyday until she wad about 4 months, cause I didn't need to since I'm not working
No problem your welcome!!☺️
