Bad advice from ibclc ruined my supply
Ok so I had my dd on nov 23. Right away we had trouble with latching and bf was very painful. A nurse suggested a breast shield which helped with pain but didn't improve her nursing. I hired a ibclc and she suggested a supplemental nursing system and told me pumping was unnecessary. She was very wrong!!! Not only did she tell me my baby did NOT have a tongue tie when she clearly did she ruined my supply by misinforming me that if you supplement you don't need to pump. After a few days I realized my supply was gone and I've been struggling since to rebuild. I pump and nurse around the clock. I power pump, drink TONs of water, take yeast tablets, fenugreek tea and pills. I've seen little improvement in supply. I also had her tongue tie and lip tie clipped. It's been almost three weeks and I'm still struggling and thinking about giving up. Anyone else have the same struggle and get supply back?

My baby is 9 months and she stopped nursing around 2 months so I have to pump since then. I read some articles about the “tongue tie” today. I was just worrying if my daughter has one? Does any of you face with tongue tie?
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️

How Would I Know If My Baby Girl Has A Tongue Tie Because I'm Thinking That's Why She Uses Her Tongue When She Breastfeeding And It's Making It Hurt More
took me 10 minutes to pump this from both breast after feeding Ethan for 25 minutes. My milk supply is going crazy yesterday I pumped 8 bottles my milk stash is going to be great
For some pumping is vital. I am one of them. It took me 4 kids to realize that. This is my 4th and last (born nov 27) and I have been pumping 4-5 times a day since I have come home from the hospital. Lo does have a tongue tie but I am not getting it clipped he is gaining weight just fine. I am so sorry you got misinformed. I would start taking some herbal supplements and pump away. Put baby to breast any chance you get even if baby isn't getting milk it will stimulate production.
