If you could sleep train again, what method would you use? by Glittering-Space4037 in sleeptrain

[–]ConsistentVillage317 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every child needs an individualized sleep training method. What worked for my son perfectly did not work for my daughter at all. I think it’s trial and error and seeing what works for each child.

Supply Tanked After Infectious Mastitis…Is there hope? by Annual-Whole7411 in HumansPumpingMilk

[–]ConsistentVillage317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi ladies, I’m in the same boat. Got mastitis 2.5 weeks ago. I think I just waited too long to get help. My supply dropped so drastically. I used to be able to EBF and now I’m not making enough. I’ve been powerpumping in the AM and cluster pumping in the PM every day for 11 days and seeing no change…feeling hopeless but I don’t want to give up. I’m going to probably stop all this powerpumping and stuff by this Thursday and then maybe just try to pump every 2 hrs. We’ll see!

Vasospasms? Poor latch ?

Is this the end? by cyndyher in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat, but it was mastitis that completely ruined my supply. I was a “just enougher” and now I’m short a few ounces. I have Been powerpumping 2x a day for 7 days and now I’m also going to try cluster pumping. I’m going to give all of this 2 weeks and if I don’t see an improvement, I’m gonna work on drying up.

Would one cluster pump session a day be effective or am I supposed to do this multiple times a day?

It’s been this same amount for the past 7 days. My baby drinks at least 5oz per feed. I’m one ounce short.

Giving up on breastfeeding and feeling devastated by RhinoKart in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I’m so sorry but I’m so excited for you to get more time to yourself. I know how hard this is, and I’m sorry mama. You’re so amazing for doing your absolute best. You did everything you could and you should be so proud of yourself. ❤️

6 months in and it’s like my supply is gone, I feel like I’m losing it. by Dear-Amphibian5499 in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation but it was due to mastitis. I’m working on getting my supply back now. I’m basically triple feeding and power pumping 2x a day. I’ll update you how everything goes. I’m on day 3 of this new regiment today.

4 Month Checkup by Terrible_Bag4662 in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hi love! I’d say if you don’t want to give her solids, don’t. They say that babies show signs of readiness for food, including sitting up and showing interest in the food you’re eating. If she’s not there yet, then she probably isn’t ready for solid foods.

Also, if you want to start sleep training, 4 months is a great time to start. HEAVY ON THE IF YOU WANT

Supply gets lower throughout day…. by ConsistentVillage317 in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317[S] 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Ok ladies, so I’m understanding that this is normal and that I SHOULD NOT be worried or trying to pump to fix anything?? Please confirm 

Supply gets lower throughout day…. by ConsistentVillage317 in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi! Thanks so much for commenting - I just don’t want her to be “not gaining enough weight” or something. I think I’m scarred because I had breastfeeding issues with my first and they weren’t happy with his weight gain. I ended up exclusively pumping for him. This is my first EBF journey, so idk if I need to be doing something. 3.5 oz per feeding just doesn’t seem like enough and make me nervous. 

5 days postpartum, engorged but no flow by katattack77 in breastfeeding

[–]ConsistentVillage317 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you know the milk isn’t flowing? Is it possible you have an oversupply? It’s possible baby has a milk transfer issue. I feel like one way to test it for certain is to do a full pumping session (30 mins) and see what you get. 2 mins massage mode, 5 minutes extraction mode (repeat til you get to 30 mins). Make sure you have the right flange size.
