My baby is 14 days old.. I strictly breastfeed and pump when I need relief. I'm get 8oz when I pump. I feel I'm over producing, my boobs are always full and my baby is always hungry... I want to stop breastfeed so bad.. I have 17 bags of milk stored away.
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
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....
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.
I'm a breastfeeding mother & I hate when family or friends come over because it messes up my breastfeeding bond with baby, so then I'm forced to give her pumped breast milk & I'm left with engorged boobs because I cannot breastfeed or pump ... don't you hate when people try to wake up your newborn while your trying to put her to sleep 💁
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
If you do not need to store the milk to work you can stop pumping and your body will regulate to only what your baby needs soon.
