Feeding Schedule

Hi Mummies, Can you share with me your feeding schedule for EBM and Formula please, thank you. I am using S26 and trying my best to power pump every 3-4hrs. Please share with me some tips! Also, my breasts feel hard at the sides, even after I massage before every pump session. Is it clogged milk ducts?

my breasts used to have "hard areas" too.. u can try putting warm cloth on the hard area and massage in circular motion WHILE pumping. helps me. Good luck!

Coffee and breastfeeding

Does any breastfeeding moms here still drinks coffee? How does it affect your baby?

I do take a cup or two daily, LO seems fine. I have heard of caffeine being passed down to babies thru breastmilk, causing them to be sleepless? Not sure how true...

Haenim 7V v Imani Reviews

Hi mummies, anyone use Haenim 7V or Imani breastpump? Isit worth buying? #advicepls #haenim #breastpump

Initially I wanted to buy the Imani breastpump. Looks really cool and portable until I saw negatives reviews from a mummy if I'm not wrong she's a blogger? Not sure about that. So apparently the thing about that pump is you can't and don't know how much & how long you've pump since there's no indicator. This part turns me off. I need an indicator since I will be exclusively pumping and it's a hassle if I have to keep peeping to see how much bm I've pumped while busy handling baby. Not sure about Haenim 7V. That particular thing looks really cool to me. Like really sleek. I've read good reviews about this. It's quiet but still need to see if there's any negatives one so I can compare and think twice before purchasing.

Low supply breastmilk

Hi, im a FTM, currently baby is 16 days old. Everytime when i tried to latch him, im only managed to latch for ard 15 to 20mins. And he will asked for milk again after 1 hour. Lactation consultant said it may be because of wrong latching position of due to my breastmilk supply not fast enough. I tried to pump out for 30mins and only managed to get around 40 to 50ml milk (total left & right) which is not enough as his feed is 60ml. Usually pumping the milk comes fast during first 10 to 15mins but i realised it slow down after which. Anybody facing same issue as me?

Super Mum

Actually that sounds perfectly normal to me. I took a month to be able to keep up with my baby’s milk demands. You can try power pumping to increase your supply, on top of latching on demand. Also drink more water and eat well. Please please please don’t stress yourself about your milk supply:) you’re doing great! And it’s perfectly fine to supplement with formula if you need to.

Twice at work. We have a mini freezer in our department and after pumping, I wash it with hot water then place them in a ziplock bag for storage
