Love these so much I had to share
Am I the only one who's not breastfeeding?!?
Breastfeeding information and tips This is a post I've made to help women who are thinking of breastfeeding, or are breastfeeding and may have some questions about breastfeeding. It is also aimed to help women who may be experiencing problems with breastfeeding and may need to know how to deal with these problems because most breastfeeding problems can be sorted.
#mombassadorchat Happy World Breastfeeding Week! Please share your breastfeeding stories and tips! Hi everyone! @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom here. For today's chat we're going to talk about breastfeeding and pumping in honor of World Breastfeeding Week! Both can seem complicated or stressful, but remember you have lots of support here! With my first son I had things going against us for breastfeeding. I wish I knew back when he was younger that we could have still tried! With my second son I was determined to breastfeed, and even though he was born 11 weeks early I wasn't going to let that stop us from trying to breastfeed! For 7 weeks I pumped every 2 1/2-3 hours on the dot to establish and maintain my milk supply. When your little one is born early they usually need time to master sucking, swallowing, and breathing so I wasn't able to nurse right away. When my son was 33 weeks gestational (so 4 weeks old) we were finally able to latch on, and he did great! By 36 weeks gestational we had successfully started breastfeeding, and today marks 21 months of actual at-breast breastfeeding for us! I am passionate in trying to help moms-to-be and moms with breastfeeding and/or pumping, but I support moms who choose not to or for other reasons cannot breastfeed. Remember, I mentioned I didn't breastfeed my first son. I understand both sides. Breastfeeding isn't always easy, but I believe it's at least worth trying! Please help me celebrate World Breastfeeding Week by sharing your tips, questions, concerns, product recommendations, or anything else breastfeeding and pumping related!

@flowerbomb22, yep this bub likes to be upside down and on his tummy to feed.... makes feeding while out super hard 😂

@fnello, your amazing! I’m back on motillium and a crazy feeding and pumping schedule to try to increase supply, but I think my dr is starting to lean towards me weaning which is a bit hard as she has been my biggest support

I agree so worth it. My first bub was a breeze and I loved every minute of breastfeeding my second on the other hand has been a little more challenging.. always twisting my nipple to get into weird positions, off and on every 30 seconds.. not the most relaxing experience 😂 but I fed my first for so long I feel like I owe her the same so I’m pushing through lol

@flowerbomb22, it was the most amazing experience. And yeah still struggling on at almost 12 months old. It’s not been easy but sooo worth it.
