@jamieleighx that's a great tip! I'm literally writing down tips on Post-it notes right now so that I can remember and don't have to go back and look for it LOL I'm just not sure if I should pump I really hate pumping though
😍 I love this! Your supply should up again, give it a few days! If you plan on getting rid of bottles, or cutting them down do it an Oz at a time, starting with one feed :) I've had to do it after some pretty terrible support and advice from my health visitor and midwives, it's hard work!
Thank you so much that support and encouragement means a whole lot and I already feel the work now LOL so thank you for that advice and I'm guessing that the pain is normal? It's not like a bad latch kind of pain it's internally in the breast I think maybe cuz he's trying to obviously suck out something that's fully established yet, right?
So I'll let him eat off of there until it starts hurting to the point where I can't really take it but I kind of go a little bit further only because he's helping making my milk come in and that's the only way to do it but I don't want him to get tired off trying to get something rather than actually eating out of his bottle for now
@mother.of.2, I hope you’re able to continue :)
@kas.f thank you so much and I hope with your next baby that you'll be able to I feel like everybody should at least be able to experience that once and with my first I wasn't able to I'm pretty sure it was my fault though because I kept looking way too much into it with trying to get him to latch that it should have just came natural like I feel that it came now but he was a formula fed baby and is very healthy so as long as they're fed that's all that matters💕
@mother.of.2, yes that’s true fed is best! I’m hoping I can with my next though because it is such a special bond between mother and child ♥️♥️♥️
Just let him suckle as much as he likes (unless it gets to uncomfortable for you) also pace feed him his bottles so he gets used to having to work for the milk a bit. Obviously this isn't the same for every baby and it's not an exact science, but we kept to slow flow teats, pace fed, left him at the breast for as long as he needed (even if he was sleeping and suckling), dropped 1oz at a time from the bottle until eventually we were only giving him 1 a day. He still has that one, but it's because it helps with his routine now and it means I get an hour in the evening to clean and shower and stuff :) feel free to message me if I can help anymore! You're doing great to even try and get your supply back up, it's probably one of the most difficult challenges I've come across! 😘
