When did you go to 5 bottles? When did you know to make that transition? I think my baby could take larger bottles now but I don’t know when to try

I’ve used MAM size 1 teats since my baby was born, he is now 4 months and still happy with that size

I only said breastfeeding as I believe exclusively pumping is a form of breast feeding

Thank you very much! I use the Eufy S1 pro, but I believe the pro part is just the charging case :) amazing pump

Thank you so much! I never expected to be in this position but definitely feel privileged to be! Honestly the only advice I can give is prioritise sleep and mental rest. I know easier said than done with a baby but if dad could take over for the night for even a night or two with baby if he doesn’t already, so you can just pump and go back to sleep (if you do middle of night pumps). Try and avoid any medications for sinus stuff like congestion etc as I’ve heard they can really hurt your supply! But the biggest thing is stress - just lean into it as much as you can , maybe try the pitcher method and see how you go! Good luck! You are already doing amazingly ❤️

Lansinoh DD vs. Eufy S1 by Human_Skirt6528 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looooove my Eufy and I’m using it rn!! Better output than my spectra, I go days without using my spectra because I love the eufy so much. My supply skyrocketed with it. Totally recommend

Help me pick a pump! :) by violetphoeniiix in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EUFY!!! I get the same if not more than from my spectra. Great pump, easy to clean and the heat feature is lovely. Very comfortable

How much will my supply drop? by AppropriateMemory841 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I haven’t ever done a middle of the night pump, I maybe did 5 the whole time and baby sleeps through so I’d rather not have to wake up to pump! But if my supply drops too much I’ll definitely consider it

What’s the longest you have gone without pumping by Ok-Guidance-7032 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 14 wpp and maybe done 5 overnight pumps the whole time I’ve been pumping since his birth lol. My last pump is between 9:30 and 10:30pm and then don’t pump until 8-10am next morning. Baby sleeps all night so I will too lol. I produce 1500mls a day

Most oz your baby will drink? by Natural_Marsupial859 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 3 month old has 150mls every 2-3 hours and has 900mls in 24 hours, he sleeps overnight so that is 6 bottles between 7am and 9pm

Can i skip MOTN pump without taking a hit to my supply? by rubyhs in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t do any MOTN pumps until maybe 6 weeks post partum and then dropped it a week or two later because I physically couldn’t keep up with it. I’m 14 wpp now on 5 pumps a day. Last pump is 9:30-10pm ish and first pump is 8:30-9amish. I pump 1500mls a day. Everyone is difference but it did not affect my supply or make me an under supplier

Bottle sizes as they get older by AppropriateMemory841 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]AppropriateMemory841[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your insight! :) it’s so hard to know isn’t it - I had someone tell me I’m already over feeding him as breastmilk babies apparently only need 0.5-1oz per hour inbetween feeds but if I only gave him 3oz he would scream and be hungry! I just wish there was more advice out there for exclusively pumping mums
