Has anyone tried Loveamme tailormade double breast pumps and could share your experience? Was it easy to use and wash, and were the different settings useful? Thanks!!!

it’s very good and useful! i’ve been using it as a pump at work. the easy to wash part depends on what bottles and flanges you use, but i would say it’s much easier to wash than those cup pumps. settings are useful to customise to your needs

21 weeks pregnant, haven't felt baby move

Hi everyone! I am pregnant with my 2nd kid, I am also having a lot of anxiety as I have been through 3 recurrent miscarriages after having my 1st born. I have an anterior placenta which could be cushioning baby's movement. I felt flutters last week, but not very distinctive. But this week, I've barely or not even felt baby move at all. I know it could be that my baby has changed position and they still do have a lot of room in there. But I don't know what to feel? Anyone with similar experiences or any advice on how I can deal with my sudden anxiety of thinking something happened to my baby?#advicepls #pleasehelp :(

i’m in the same phase as you, 2nd kid and anterior placenta too. i’d say im experiencing similar movement for mine as well. sometimes it comes and goes.. but be rest assured that if there are no other signs, baby should be well! could be sleeping or moving elsewhere or like you said there’s a lot of room. i also don’t feel consistent movement. only worry at week 28. have faith :)

Feeding newborn bottles

Hi mummies out there. Just having some random thoughts I have about feeding newborns. How do you manage to wash bottle after every feed (let’s say every 3 hrs?) while it’s so tiring haha or it’s not as tedious as I thought 🤔 Do you guys use bottle cleaner & steriliser or just boiling water? How many feeding bottles do you actually need? Thank you in advance for answering 😊

congrats you must be a ftm. it can get really tiring because you never know how long your baby will take to drink, and if you need to pump after baby’s feed (need extra bottles and more time to set up and store milk). or if baby poops and you need to clean up, need even more time within each 3h window. it may not seem tedious now but a lot of things can happen in between that makes you feel like there’s not enough time 😂 and you end up sacrificing your own meal/toilet time. i was gifted a few bottles and got some free samples so i would recommend getting at least 6 bottles for a day for feeding and 4 for pumping (2 each time) if you can afford it, so you can rotate them and won’t have to spend so much time washing. We use a bottle brush, pureen cleansing liquid and steam sterilizer.

I would like to ask as I don't know what is happening to my leg can anyone tell me what I can do?

Due to hormonal changes, that might be rashes/heat rashes. You can get QV cream (prescribe) when you visit dr/gynae for consultation. Mine only when away during 3rd tri.
