need help: I'm trying to breast feed my daughter and she will not latch on anymore. could be because I feed her formal form a bottle a couple of time. Because milk was not coming in, Now it is and she will not latch but I'm pumping how long would my milk last?? without drying up or how could I stop my milk for coming in?? I would like to keep pumping and feeding her that. But nm only getting 2 maybe 3 Oz at a time.
that is good advice but if you still can't get her to latch you can keep pumping and giving it to her in bottles. the more milk you express the more that will come in. it's supply and damand and it takes a little while for it to regulate.
You need to keep trying and don't give bottles if you want her to nurse. She may be frustrated with the letdown not being as fast as the bottle. If you're stressed while trying to latch her, she will feel your energy as well. There is no need to pump and it can create an oversupply. Just keep offering your breast and do lots of skin to skin.
Quick question to breast feeding mum i would like to breast feed my baby when she comes as I’ve never really breast fed my other 2, is it uncomfortable also how is pumping out milk????? For bottle feeds is the pump uncomfortable... I would normally just breast feed and not pump when home but I do drive so when I’m out and can’t stop I’ll have to use a bottle...I remember trying to breast feed my youngest and I keeped getting milk ducts why was that??? I think that’s why I gave up as I was scared...
so my husband wants to feed are baby but the thing is that I will be breastfeeding so idk how it would work. he was thinking that when he wants to feed him he would give him formula but I just want my baby to have breast milk. so then he said why don't you pump your milk out and I'll feed it to him and i thought that would be the best thing but then I'm scared that my baby will get use to the bottle. I need help idk what to do because my husband really wants to feed him :/ and we need to come up...

Moms...I know that when your boobs get hard and engorged a few days after having the baby that’s when your milk is coming in but i need advice. I’m due in April but would like advice ahead of time since i was not successful with my son. I just stopped latching him cause he was drinking formula.. but how do you relieve that pain of them being hard? I’ve heard of people latching the baby or of them pumping then latching the baby. I’ll take any advice to be successful and actually have my milk come...
sitting in a parking lot crying is not how I wanted to spend my night...she isn't latching anymore but she will take her paci with no problem. Guess I'm gonna have to pump and bottle feed
try nipple sheilds too. those seem to help babies latch on better
