Struggling during breastfeeding

My baby moves a lot during breastfeeding, such as kicking or arching his back, resulting in him throwing up alot milk sometimes. Any advice on this?

Oh no this is familiar to me. At around two to four months i noticed let down was alot and in hindsight i realised that baby was overfed and intestines were inflamed plus the colic! Could be baby throw up milk because its too much and tummy hurts so the struggling arching. Its a bad cycle where baby feeds and seek comfort in breastfeeding but adds on to the pain when over feed. That was what i experienced but im not sure if its the same case for u. Her stomach got better after four months and my supply was better regulated so no more colic and throw ups after that period!

Almost Can’t Sleep

Baby is almost 1 month old and nights are SO tough. He wakes up every 2 hours like clockwork and sometimes refuses to go back to sleep unless I hold him. My husband did a lot but still tired. I feel like a zombie at this point 😵. How do you moms manage night wakings? Does it ever get better?

My experience with all my newborns is that they will fell asleep right after breastfeeding. Yours is after feeding he needs to be carried and rocked to sleep is it?

Changes in stored milk taste

Hi mummies. My stored milk changes taste due to high lipase and baby refuses to drink. Any tips to overcome this or do I have to adjust my diet?

CMPA baby. How long does a milk protein stays in breastmilk? Even after pumping out the milk.

Hi mummies, So PD has confirmed tt my bby has CMPA. Today is my first day going on dairy free. Would it be better if i continue to breastfeed bby or better to pump & discard my milk for a few days before i breastfeed bby? I tried breastfeeding bby today & bby pass out loose stools due to the allergy. How long does a cow milk protein stay in breastmilk? If i pumped out, does it make a difference?

Hello, I suspected that my baby also has CMPA due to his bloody stool. May I know if your PD ran any test to your baby? Can any PD do this?

How to manage breast milk if going overseas without baby

Hi mummies! Do you get manual/electric pump before giving birth and if yes, which pump do you recommend? Am considering between Pigeon/Hegen/Tommee Tippee!

Spectra Dual S is the best

Baby bf for so long

Is it normal for my 2 week old to want to latch non stop?

Yes it’s normal as they want to find comfort from their mother. Sometimes they might not be drinking milk but using our nipples as human pacifier 🥲

Reject breast milk?

Hi mommies. My baby is mixed breast milk and formula fed. Not latching. When he is at my mil place he is more formula fed and when he’s back at home he is full breast milk. Recently he is rejecting my thawed breast milk. And now he is a little rejecting my freshly pumped milk. Anyone experience the same? Any solutions?

probably he is too used to formula milk taste. usually if mixed feeing it's formula fed in the middle of the night so that baby overall is still taking breastmilk throughout the day
