Need advice! Sorry it's alot to read!

How do you that babys getting enough? I breast feed my daughter and last week I left for two days (pumped while gone every two to 3 hours like how she eats) and she was drinking half formula half breast milk bottles while I was gone.since I've gotten back she has been on and off refusing breast but will take bottle and when I don't give bottle she's hungry every hour sometimes less and been more fussy after feed no matter how long I keep her on breast... and when I pumped when she absolutely refuses breast and I have been getting less. Do you think shes getting enough? If not what so you think is the issue...

It’s could possibly be a growth spurt but since you were gone was she bottle fed? If so, it’s much easier for babies to extract the milk from the bottle than the breast and they can tell the difference so that could be why she is refusing the breast. Keep offering the breast to keep your supply up and get back to what you were doing before you left. I went through this with my son and he preferred the bottle because it was easier. I hope this helps and good luck!

Quick question to breast feeding mum i would like to breast feed my baby when she comes as I’ve never really breast fed my other 2, is it uncomfortable also how is pumping out milk????? For bottle feeds is the pump uncomfortable... I would normally just breast feed and not pump when home but I do drive so when I’m out and can’t stop I’ll have to use a bottle...I remember trying to breast feed my youngest and I keeped getting milk ducts why was that??? I think that’s why I gave up as I was scared lol

calling all mommies who are breast feeding or excessively pumping .. how did you all do it ?? I know some people pump right in the hospital day 1 !! I know my hospitals here allows you to pump from day 1 and breast feed at the same time they just give you a breast consultant to explain and show you how so you don’t mess up and get a over supply to soon . Some people only breast feed for awhile than pump 1/2 later . Some only pump period ... what’s your method and how successful are you ?? And how tough was it in the beginning ??
