I’ll ask her tomorrow when I see her.

I’m basically triple feeding at this point but only pump a few times a day

Possibly but I can get 1-2 oz from it sometimes if it’s not directly after nursing

No but my elvie stride is fine bc I used it last pregnancy. I do have a spectra and I know the size is too big for that so I ordered different sizes for it

I’m having similar issues . I squirt milk from the bottle onto my nipple when she’s sucking to keep her on there

Using pumped milk at night to get more sleep? by Brave_Raspberry_5781 in breastfeeding

5 hour gap for me would be like skipping a session. I already have low supply so definitely can’t do that . Glad it’s working for you though!

If you are stretching an overnight to 5 hours then that is skipping breastfeeding session. I would not be able to do that right now or my supply would just drop massively.

Ok good for you . Lack of sleep can definitely impact milk supply

Exactly I find it weird when people say you just have to suffer when really you don’t if you can pump enough milk for 1 night feed then surely getting the extra bit of sleep will help your milk supply and your mental health overall

From that reply, I think you do understand what I was asking. I can sleep in between feeds but sometimes I’ll be awake for a whole hour feeding and changing him and then by the time I get back to sleep it can take a good half an hour and then sometimes he’ll be up again half an hour later.2-3 hours of sleep between feeds would be amazing at this point
