Baby stopped nursing because it comes out of her bottles faster and I gave her too many bottles. Totally fine, I’m just pumping now but I noticed a dip in my supply. I started pumping more and now it’s back with a vengeance....my boobs huuurrrrrttttt 😭😭😭😭😭 she only nurses early in the mornings when she tends to wake up around 5.

What size nipples are you using? I went back to work when my son was 4 months and he was getting 5 bottles a day but we used only size 1 nipples and he actually never developed a bottle preference. He knew he got a bottle from daddy and auntie and the boob from mommy. On weekends all the bottles were out of sight and he never asked for them. But anyways, don’t feel bad, lots of women pump, and the fact that she’s still getting breastmilk is a huge plus!

Yeah I’m not too upset. She uses size 2 but only because for some reason that’s the size that comes with the bottle
In the box and I didn’t realize that until a few weeks ago....thought it was weird.

oh ok yeah usually you have to switch out the nipple. You can try that and see if that helps. They even make preemie nipples, which is what my sister uses for her baby, but I’ve always used size 1.

the bottles my son used came with a size 1 nipple. I assumed hers would too even though she uses a different kind. I was confused to see it was a 2 but it’s okay. I’m okay pumping I am. She was starting to bite me anyway lol
