Breastfeeding (PUMPING)
Has anyone else’s baby not take to breastfeeding so you decided to pump and feed instead? I’ve been pumping for 4 months from the start I was a over supplier pumping like 42 ounces a day just on my manual pump but 2 weeks ago my supply has took a major drop to me only being able to pump a couple of ml a time both breasts combined! Nothing has changed routine/ pumps baby’s feeds nothing I’m not pregnant I’ve not been poorly it’s just gone. If this had happened to you please let me know how you got your supply back up because my HV and Lactation coach are telling me different things so I’ll ask the mums who’s actually been through it! ANY ADVICE WELCOME! 🤗

I’m trying to relactate after not pumping for ages and I’ve heard and tried using porridge oats (they help) rubbing coconut oil on my breast/having it in my drinks makes me feel engorged and coconut water helps with hydration as it’s a great source of electrolytes and protein! All have helped me feel engorged and has made pumping easier
You might be getting your period soon 😪🫶🏻

Washing liquid
Hi! I can’t stand the weird smell of any of the blue non bio washing stuff. Is there anything else that can be used for washing newborn? Something that smells a bit better 😬

Dream feeding
Hi
I need to stop dream feeding my baby at night when he wakes up. How do you do this or transition? He is mainly breastfed but I’ve started to give a bottle on the night on the last feed before he sleeps

Anyone else?
Anyone else a c section, co sleeping, breastfeeding mama and your body is just in bits? I don’t know if my bed is just uncomfortable postpartum or if it’s my body and cosleeping/breastfeeding positions. I feel like stretching helps a little but my hips and lower back especially are awful, but generally I just feel so achy and uncomfortable most of the time. Is it just me?

What wakes your baby up?
I'm curious...when your baby wakes overnight, what is it waking them up? Is it hunger or something else? My little boy (breastfed) only wakes for two nights feeds (which is great!) but wakes himself up after wriggling/flapping about in his sleep every 1.5/2 hours too 😬
