#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!

Yes and even pumping makes you feel that way. I've asked my doctor and they said that the hormones that goes along with breastfeeding and pumping makes you relax. I am currently a new mom of a newborn that is 5 days old and I am tired once I'm done feeding or pumping.

Yes ma'am! I remember I would almost fall asleep while my daughter was feeding

yes. with my daughter everytime she nursed it took everything in me to not fall asleep. it releases hormones in you and baby that relaxes you. it's normal.

I think the only reason why you feel pooped is if you are nursing exclusively the other half can't feed baby to help you out but I must say it is so worth it! I love that bond...

I have heard that feeling tired after breastfeeding is pretty normal in the beginning!
