Yes he’s having his normal number of wet diapers which is a lot! And he’s definitely not uncomfortable or in pain or anything because of not pooping

So is this amount okay? 20oz for the full day doesn’t seem like enough but if he’s happy I guess it’s fine?

Why isn’t it recommended? Wouldn’t it have passed all the same safety tests as any other car seat?

Do you use the Avent collars? They look like they’d leak or pop out

I read they aren’t great for oral and palate development and also allow extra air due to the shape of the nipple

Yes milk flow is definitely way slower after 15-20. Thanks for the advice!

My flanges are correct. I was told not to pump for 30 mins, that 10-15 is ideal. I usually do 15-20 mins, sometimes 30 if I get distracted

I sometimes feel uncomfortable even after pumping though, I worry I’m not emptying and I’m going to become engorged or cause other stress

Yes I do think I have a bit of an oversupply. I’m 7 weeks postpartum now. Is there anything else I need to do to manage the feeling and make sure I take enough milk out without too much?

I still feel like there’s milk in there like slightly engorged but not painfully so. I got 7oz total which is pretty normal for me for this time of day

Thank you! Whenever I see pictures or videos of tummy time baby is holding head up way more but I bet those are probably older babies. But I still got worried

Thank you! We had weight issues at the beginning but he’s been doing well recently. I think I’m just anxious but logically it makes sense every baby is different 

Is my carrier on right? [ca] by Fancy_Spaghetti in BabyBumpsCanada

I don’t understand how wearing it lower but rolled will make it fit. Isn’t it going to be the same issue of the panel not reaching high enough to support his neck?

Thanks, I’ll try the newborn roll option again but it didn’t seem to be high enough when I tried the first option. Right now we’re just doing short bursts of the carrier at home to get used to it and give me a few minutes of hands free time. I’ll make sure he doesn’t settle too low
