okay I will be returning to school soon and I need to know tips on stacking up on breast milk , to increase the milk supply because my son is fed on demand and I refuse to switch to formula so I need advice to increase milk supply, also what are some bottles that are most like the boob because I need my son to accept a bottle also ? help!
I use munchkin latch bottles and also the avent natural glass bottles. they're both awesome for breastfed babies
so start by pumping after each feeding. you won't get much but it will add up and increase your supply at the same time. depending on how often you LO eats, you can power pump a couple times a day too.. it takes about an hour. eat more oatmel, make sure your drinking plenty of water. remember most mom's make what their babies need and pumping isn't an indication of how much you make.. baby is better at getting it. also most mom's only pump enough for the next day meals or so.. a freezer full isn't necessary. my LO eats 2-4 oz each feeding, so I make 2 oz bags for easier use. it's easier to open the second bag than to waste 2 oz..
try several brands, each baby is different. we use the Playtex nursers with he drop ins. start by having someone else offer the bottle (you will smell too good), try it when baby is happiest and not super hungry (like after 5pm my daughter wants no one but me and usually comfort nurses).
We use the latch bottles from munchkin
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...

Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
Ditto @wiccanmommy . My oldest liked the Playtex ventaire bottles, but my youngest only likes the NUK ones. The nipples seem more realistic to me.
