I had that problem also. My nipples were to small for his mouth. I used a nipples shield. That helped a lot with the latch.

as long as you're pumping you won't lose it. it may decrease. keep trying to latch. his saliva tells your body to make milk. stay hydrated (aim for as least half your body weight in oz per day) smart water and Gatorade will help you stay hydrated. almonds. steel cut oats. lactation brownies/cookies/smoothies.

No as long as you have some type of stimulation it wont dry up. My son wouldn't latch either but i couldn't breastfeed anyway due to bipolar medication but i even tried to pump but it hurt too bad.

a lot of times it does slow because it's not the same. try nipple stimulation and mothers milk to keep it up as much as possible

My son loves the bottle more than my breast 😫 he gets so fussy when I give him my breast but has no issue with with bottle. As long as his eating I’m okay with it. I’ve been pumping and I hate pumping!!

@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.

My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...

Breast pump covered by insurance

I've already done what I needed to find out what type of pump I get covered through insurance. It turns out, with my insurance, I can't even get my pump shipped to me until I call them with all the birth details of my baby. So...wth am I supposed to do having a baby and no pump?! I plan to pump exclusively and this REALLY throws a wrench in my plans.
