My biggest fear is that I won't be able to breastfeed like I want too. 😔

You just have to eat plenty and nutritious food. Stress can decrease supply too. I think a lot people don't breastfeed cause the pain it causes in the beginning and they give up. You can't give up. And have to pump if supply is decreasing and keep your baby on your breast.

Be patient all the time cuz breastfeeding is not easy specially when new at it dont give up its hard exsusting but worth it

@alekismyworld, I'm trying to look up ways to help but it's mostly just up to my body. I just really want to do it but I'm scared I won't be able too.. @annivan.ca, I don't know how to prepare for it..

Well stressing about it isn't gonna help. And I'm sure you'll be fine. Do you have any colostrum right now?

Get those lactation cookies. Get a pump with insurance. There a lactation tea you can drink it now once a day drink alot of water before breast feeding

Once baby is out avoid ice cold drinks and cover your chest and back thats what i was told dont stress. If your only going to breast feed dont give baby paci or bottle cuz once they get it they rather get food easy and fast. You can also learn to make your own latation snacks

Eat healthy and alot more aday cuz you will need it and water

Most inportant thing the more you latch baby more milk you get lear all the feeding position because some babys like football position some like regular and read on how to tell baby is latch on look at your nipples are they latchable or need help by pinching then or do you need to help them just read. And practice

Read get all the info go to the wic if you can talk to the lactationaist

@alekismyworld, I haven't had anything yet. @annivan.ca, I drink water all the time. I eat fruits as much as possible and vegetables are eaten with dinner. Most fruits make me sick though.

Well if you squeeze your boob does anything come out. You have to like squeeze then pull your nipple

@alekismyworld, I've tried. My boobs and nipples are still extremely sensitive and tender

@caityyy_lynnn, I get it, I'm breastfeeding with those tender nipples and sometimes I wanna scream #momlife 😂

@alekismyworld, don't even get me started when my boyfriend is in the mood. I want to cry like 99.9% of the time lol

@caityyy_lynnn, hahaha breastfeeding hurts a lot more then a little suckle from a man. Unless he's like sucking the crap out of your nipple 😂😂😂

@alekismyworld, he likes my boobs but I begged him to be gentle 😂

I was thinking about trying these but I don't know?

The milk flow I never heard of it, maybe read some reviews on it? And the tea I tried it didn't do anything for me. But on Amazon you can buy like a cookie mix for breastfeeding and that helped me, or you can save the money and just eat milk supply boosters. oatmeal every morning, lots of water and eat well. Oatmeal really does help though. I also took lactation pills and they didn't work for me but my friend took the same ones and she was pumping 3 ounces more milk. Beer is also helpful. It made me leek milk everywhere. But everyone is different. Gotta find what works for you

Same

@alekismyworld, I'm kinda down to try anything. I'm getting like a little clear liquid out of my right boob but nothing out of my left.

@allieekaay, I watched my sisters struggle so I'm scared.

Ok that's a good sign 👌 that's colostrum. So don't worry. You'll have milk then

@alekismyworld, I'll just have to keep trying with my left. I was told to try a warm washcloth as well and the milk flow actually has a lot of positive reviews but I think I'm also going to ask my OB.

@caityyy_lynnn, girl that's good that you're getting in that clear liquid. I've been getting that too since I was 20 weeks out of both boobs! It's basically "liquid gold" for your baby!

@allieekaay, it's only out of my right though and it's only if I squeeze and pull. My left is just not having it /:

@caityyy_lynnn, yes the warm cloth is also good when you have too much milk and it will unclog any clogs you might have.
