@cubanese, I did she said she had a latch actually I just don't think I'm doing good with bf her
I started pumping since my sons birth, it made my milk supply come in faster so by the time he latched, which was two days after birth, he was getting 2-3 ounces from breast and then the rest in his feeding tube when I wasn't there in NICU. And pumping helps you build up a decent supply. If you have more questions, I'd personally consult a lactation consultant. I had my doctor and lactation nurse help me.
@cubanese understood wish I would have known about the wait to pump rule .
Yes I was gonna mention the pumping early but wasn't sure so didn't want to give misinformation @cubanese but @zrivera22 dont let that stop u . you both are learning . I suggest visiting your wic location & getting hands on help ....my lactation nurse was a GOD SEND I wouldn't have been able to bf . she kept me encouraged
@momofdeuce, I'm getting discourage it may be because she not latching on properly.
@cubanese, I don't think she's latching on properly. And my mom said I should start pumping.
That's good from what I know now your body only pumps what babies need .
I didnt know that at first and forced myself to try to get 5 oz which discouraged me because I thought I wasnt pumping enough .
Now that I know what I didnt know then I'm going into bf with a whole new set of eyes & goal
@momofdeuce, I pumped 2 on one breast and 1 on the other one
1 to 2 oz is great @cubanese may can go into depth
What age did you start giving your kids flavored milk?
Whole milk vs organic milk?
Which is better?
Is soy formula milk better than enfamil formula (cows milk)?
Im trying to be vegetarian and dont want my 3 month old drinking cows milk anymore. Would it be okay to switch??
So since Eliana just drinks almond milk now it's hard to take extra milk with us anywhere.. So I guess my question is, is there like little take along almond milk boxes? Last night we was at my sil house and she had two bottles and ran out so I had to run to the store and buy a whole thing of milk 🤦🏻 it would be sooo much easier if I could find some in little milk boxes!!
The best chocolate milk in the world.
@cubanese, thank you. I didn't think should be pumping I did pump because my breast was in pain from the milk.
I talked to my aunt whose had 3 kids that were all Breastfed she said that everything that I'm describing sounds normal and that breastfeeding can be hard I just have to work with the baby
My problem was that she falls asleep on the breast while I'm feeding her and then I take her off she wakes up hungry again. So I thought I was overfeeding her. For some reason.
