Been breast feeding for 3 days now and my milk is already in very good they said it’s probably because it never fully dried up from when I stopped breast feeding my daughter exactly 1 yr ago . They told me not to pump yet but my boobs feel so heavy and they are sore by arm pits and all in the upper middle of my breast . I’ve been putting heating pads on them but that don’t work . When I cuff them to see which boob is heavier so I know which one to put him on it hurts and feels so heavy . Anything I can do to ease them without pumping ?? Oh yea we are home and it feels GREAT
@ekko, I’ll give the hand express a try . And thank you he’s such a easy baby so far very peaceful long as he’s not hungry . I have to wake him up all through the night when it’s time for him to eat because he be knocked out lol.
@what.the.hewl.uni, I’m not going to lie I’m not big on the shower yet the water makes my incision hurt bad and my it makes my back throb for some reason . I will try the hand express but I’ll wait till my meds kick in stronger because when I breast feed him it makes my stomach cramp bad they said it’s because I’ve had so many kids close together that weakens my muscles and uterus so my uterus contracts during feeding .
Warm shower and hand express just enough to give you some relief. He’s so cute 🥰
I am unfortunately not a breastfeeding expert, but he is so perfect! <3
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...
Want to formula feed my baby, as of now I pump and feed him breast milk but I feel so guilty :(
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....
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 💖💖
my free breast pump is on its way I'm so excited .. so glad that I didn't have to pay so much money for a breast pump
Hand express for comfort. Don’t pump or your supply won’t regulate. The first few weeks are hard but you will regulate over time.
