So I just pumped to try out my new electric pump and this is what I got out on level 2 for 8 mins each which o think is pretty good
@babymamaof4 yes I'm clearly aware of this I have an apt tmw and were talking about having the baby maybe we don't know we will see
@laniejay I understand that
Nipple stim can trigger contractions. Pumping can definitely get things moving. If your body isn’t ready though, it can just lead to a whole bunch of discomfort with no progression.
@keeondracarroll01, did the dr tell you it can cause you to go into labor? You are far enough along it’s not a big concern just making sure you understand
@rina414 I'm saving it definitely just in case he didn't want to latch or something so I know he will get the colostrum
@laniejay No I stated above i was trying my pump out bc I've never used an electric one before I don't plan to pump anymore out but I did get the okay from my dr
My breast are heavy and full with milk but when I squeeze nothing comes out and when I try to pump nothing is pumped into the breast pump its like I have milk but its stuck and wont come out...any tips or help on this.. i really would like to breastfeed my daughter....
Breast pump covered by insurance
I've already done what I needed to find out what type of pump I get covered through insurance. It turns out, with my insurance, I can't even get my pump shipped to me until I call them with all the birth details of my baby. So...wth am I supposed to do having a baby and no pump?! I plan to pump exclusively and this REALLY throws a wrench in my plans.
Breastfeeding moms: so I am planning on going on a 3 day vacation with my hubby & a bunch of friends to Catalina in May, (my baby won't be going with us) and I do not wanna be pumping and dumping every 2 hours out there.. so if I don't pump or breastfeed for 3-4 days, will my milk supply drop significantly? 😩😩 & I don't know how I'm gonna deal with the engorgement pain if I can't find time to pump out there.
Ladies I called my insurance about breast pump and they said with their insurance in order to get a pump I get a prescription from doctor then I call 3 different numbers to see what my insurance covers but the only thing is I have to wait til baby is born to call and get pump so I want to at least buy a hand pump which do you ladies recommend for hand pump and when I can get a pump from insurance please n thank you 💖💖
@keeondracarroll01, That’s a great idea. Definitely save it! That’s one of my concerns, that I won’t be able to produce anything to feed baby right away.
