I do snack & drink a lot of water & im pumping bcuz latching baby is painful to me, plus he don’t really seem interested when I latch him. He stops after 2-3 mins on the boob
@dramatic_, pain in the beginning is normal. It’ll be painful for the first 2 weeks. Just make sure he is latching deep enough, because a shallow latch will be more painful. Honestly you just have to push through. By giving him bottles he will develop a bottle preference and that’s why he won’t latch. It’s up to you, but I’m just saying if you want a successful nursing relationship you have to quit the bottles
The more you empty, the more you will produce. If you’re not emptying all the way or effectively, it can impact your supply
I’m only pumping every 2-3 hrs but I been getting only 2-3 oz not much 😭
@dramatic_, try rinsing the flange in warm water. Or taking. A hot shower, it helps the milk flow out faster. You might also want to look into whether you are using the right size flange. Try massaging your breasts as you pump.
@mswedes, yesss! I been massaging my breast while pumping also do warm washcloth before I even start pumping Imita just so painful to latch baby I don’t think I’m doing it right 💔😩
Drink lots and lots of water. I also found Gatorade worked for me too.
Make sure you're eating enough food. Breastfeeding burns a lot of calories!
I also found that eating oatmeal with blackstrap molasses drizzled over the top really boosted my milk supply.
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...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Well the first question is why are you pumping? You should be strictly nursing for the first 4 weeks. Your baby can empty you a lot better than a pump. Pumping will actually decrease your supply because it doesn’t empty you out and your body thinks to make less. Latch baby more often, like every hour if necessary. The more you nurse, the more you produce! Also drink lots of water and don’t skip meals. When you sit down to nurse have a bottle of water and a snack already on hand.
