Breastfeeding and pacifiers Hey all you breastfeeding mamas are you giving your baby a pacifier? I'm scared to give mine one because I read it can mess up their latch
#mombassadorchat Happy World Breastfeeding Week! Please share your breastfeeding stories and tips! Hi everyone! @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom here. For today's chat we're going to talk about breastfeeding and pumping in honor of World Breastfeeding Week! Both can seem complicated or stressful, but remember you have lots of support here! With my first son I had things going against us for breastfeeding. I wish I knew back when he was younger that we could have still tried! With my second son I was determined to breastfeed, and even though he was born 11 weeks early I wasn't going to let that stop us from trying to breastfeed! For 7 weeks I pumped every 2 1/2-3 hours on the dot to establish and maintain my milk supply. When your little one is born early they usually need time to master sucking, swallowing, and breathing so I wasn't able to nurse right away. When my son was 33 weeks gestational (so 4 weeks old) we were finally able to latch on, and he did great! By 36 weeks gestational we had successfully started breastfeeding, and today marks 21 months of actual at-breast breastfeeding for us! I am passionate in trying to help moms-to-be and moms with breastfeeding and/or pumping, but I support moms who choose not to or for other reasons cannot breastfeed. Remember, I mentioned I didn't breastfeed my first son. I understand both sides. Breastfeeding isn't always easy, but I believe it's at least worth trying! Please help me celebrate World Breastfeeding Week by sharing your tips, questions, concerns, product recommendations, or anything else breastfeeding and pumping related! If you have a question for @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, please tag her in the comments below! Or share your advice and feeding stories.

So moms after doing research and looking at them I’m pretty sure I have inverted nipples😭 sorry if this is tmi.. but i really hope it doesn’t effect me being successful breastfeeding. My first son did latch i just didn’t keep latching him and my milk never came in.

It's very natural. In my religion, a woman has to Breastfeed until the child is ATLEAST 2 years old.

its actually very common and very natural. I watched a video where the mother used it as almost a bonding method and a way for her child to sooth and relax. it wasn't done 24/7 but occasionally the young child would feed. Its natural and I think quite beautiful if the mother is able to do it this long. I guess to each their own, ya know? It has been a topic under fire from moms saying its crazy, buts its actually pretty interesting if you read different articles about it!

Not my baby, not my body. Would I personally? Probably not. Does that mean she can't? No.
