This is killing me. I've been trying to get back into pumping. This morning I pumped only an ounce for both sides and this afternoon I only pumped half an ounce. I made a lactation milkshake this morning so I'm hoping it will kick in soon. I am so emotional over this because I wanted to exclusively breastfeed my son for at least the first year. At the rate I'm going I don't think I'll be able to. I feel like I've failed my son by giving him formula. I don't know what I'm going to do. 😢😭😞

Here's a helpful link that shows how a power pump works... Pump 20 mins, rest for 10 mins, pump for ten, rest for ten... It simulates cluster feeding and stimulates supply ссылка
Have you tried a power pumping session? Drink tons of water too!!
pumping stimulates more milk production as well as feeding ur little one on demand
it takes about 3-4 days for your supply to increase again. keep drinking the lacatation smoothie once daily and u should def see an increase

Breastfeeding moms: so I am planning on going on a 3 day vacation with my hubby & a bunch of friends to Catalina in May, (my baby won't be going with us) and I do not wanna be pumping and dumping every 2 hours out there.. so if I don't pump or breastfeed for 3-4 days, will my milk supply drop significantly? 😩😩 & I don't know how I'm gonna deal with the engorgement pain if I can't find time to pump out there.
I'm currently 19 weeks and two days. I'm
No longer with my child's father, we don't even have contact with one another. I've lost excitement for this whole pregnancy, I feel
Like I'm going to fail my son. I've lost my appetite and spend most days in bed. I'm so depressed. I've been trying to stay positive but it's become so hard. I have no one to talk too, I feel so alone and I'm going through it alone. Everything is catching up with me and I don't know if it's my hormones or what but it hurts s...
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Good luck!!
