Hello, My little boy has just turned one and I’m still breastfeeding him. His father sees him 3/4 times a week including unsupervised visits when he looks after him for 5/6 hours and brings him back. I’m still breastfeeding him outside of these times, usually evening, before bed, morning. I’m unable to express an...

I’m currently just breastfeeding my little girl(7 months) I’m going out on Saturday for a meal and wanted to have a few drinks I’m going to pump but i can’t really get much take me 24 hour to even get 4 oz. Am thinking about just getting formula in but unsure which one she can have and which one to pick don’t what ...

Silly question- but I bought a sticky toffee pudding from a local market and just noticed it has cointreau in it. I'm breastfeeding exclusively so I really don't know if I can eat it or not! Online says so many different things haha! Does anyone know?

What is everyone's thoughts on breast feeding and using dummies? Does baby have to have an established feed before using a dummy or can you use them straight away? Anyone had any issues from experience or found baby to be ok differentiating between the two?

Hi ladies! My LO is 10 weeks old and I feed him with formula. Is it too late to breastfeed? I still have some milk coming out.

Baby usually breastfeeds every 2/2.5 hours during the day but would go on the boob any time- he would never ever turn it down he is a chunk! He had his jabs at 11am this morning and has only fed for 5 minutes since, I’ve tried putting him on but he just doesn’t want it. Is a lack of appetite normal and when should I...

Can you mix expressed breast milk from different dates together? If they have both been refrigerated at the same temperature. For example I got 50ml from the 13th & 90ml from the 19th can I mix these milks?

I am 4 months pp and I want to try pumping again. Has anyone tried this? Is it even possible?

Hi, so I forgot to freeze some milk before the 4 day mark, it’s on day 6 in the fridge now. I know not to feed him it, but could I still use it for a bath? There’s maybe 8-12oz. TIA

Feeling guilty and sad that I'm slowly seeing my breast milk supply go low. We've always combo fed as my milk was never enough in the beginning. Also not getting any sleep at night was affecting my mental health. My 6 mo baby is starting purees and I pump once most evenings to add to the purees or formula... I guess...

I’m expecting my 1st baby in august! Looking for all the breastfeeding tips. I’m planning on exclusively breastfeeding.

My almost 1 yr old daughter was doing good with eating table food and drinking milk from a sippy cup, until last week she become ill and was vomiting with a fever.Doctor said it was because of teething. But now she refuses to drink milk from the sippy cups and eat table food😩 has anyone gone through this?

Hello! As milk is different in the morning and evening, does that mean I can’t give milk pumped at night to baby during the day?

Will it come back? I’m nearly 10m pp and combi feed. Period came back last Friday and just finished now. My supply has basically halved 😭 I’m also back at work (wfh) so don’t feed him for naps anymore as daddy is caring for him so I know that doesn’t help. But I do pump! Pick of before for attention
