starting to get nervous. I am still not scared just nervous about how this is all going to work out with my sons father. I still dont know how to do custody right now since he will be breast fed and everyone is telling me not to pump for the first two months. Well not pump and bottle feed. Ugh.
Don't listen to the people at wic ugh they infuriate me. They are nutritionist not fricken doctors to tell you what to do. When u get to the hospital you will have a lactation nurse explain and show u everything. Pumping is what they will tell u to do because sometimes your baby will get frustrated if your milk takes a few days to come in. It will all work out once u get to the hospital girl
We've been supplementing since day 2 and he's had 0 confusion. He's still getting formula and breast milk with no problems.
Did you breast feed and bottle at the same time? My breast feeding coach from wic said not to because of nipple confusion.
I pumped right away. And I'm still breast feed 11 months as of next week

First day of work im so nervous!! How offten should i be pumping?

I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...
calling all mommies who are breast feeding or excessively pumping .. how did you all do it ?? I know some people pump right in the hospital day 1 !! I know my hospitals here allows you to pump from day 1 and breast feed at the same time they just give you a breast consultant to explain and show you how so you don’t mess up and get a over supply to soon . Some people only breast feed for awhile than pump 1/2 later . Some only pump period ... what’s your method and how successful are you ?? And ho...
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 gave my son a bottle only at night before bed starting at a month. N I honestly think bc of that he took bottles n didn't refuse it! N I had no trouble ! Still breastfeed all day and bottle before bed.
