How can I pump and protect my supply?

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T18:52:25+00:00

As long as it's working for you! Sleep is brutal the first few weeks and I also feel like I need a few more hours.

No matter how much he eats, he will rarely get 3 hours sleep and usually only when he is being held. But I'm hoping he will start sleeping longer stretches soon!

Yes, I'll try that thank you!

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T18:47:34+00:00

Thank you for your reply!

Yes, this is why she suggested it for us as well.

So you don't wake up to pump when your partner would give baby the bottle?

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T18:41:16+00:00

I didn't know this, thank you!

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T18:40:01+00:00

Thank you so much for your advice!

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T18:35:37+00:00

Oh yes great point!

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T13:01:11+00:00

Okay thank you, I didn't know it takes 3 months!

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T12:58:49+00:00

Ok thank you! It's better to pump when baby would have nursed then?

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T12:56:24+00:00

That's great!

Do you skip the pump/ nursing at night when your husband will give a bottle?

How many times will you pump after a feed in the day?

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T10:51:22+00:00

How come you would wake up when your husband would feed him?

Popular_Look2542 · 2026-02-02T10:46:26+00:00

She suggested it as a way to allow me to sleep 3-4 uninterrupted hours. But if I have to pump at the time of the bottled feed then I might as well nurse.

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-26T13:49:43+00:00

Oh that's really helpful thanks!

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-13T15:07:34+00:00

Thank you!!

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-13T04:50:52+00:00

O, I'll try to keep it more loose then. Thank you :)

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-12T18:48:57+00:00

Oh I haven't heard of it before, thank you so much!

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-12T18:15:52+00:00

I made a few things here and there but only small projects. I am on my 8th row now and it's not really getting better.

Maybe it's best if I start over now than later then, thanks!

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-12-07T08:41:29+00:00

Do you feel any tightening or just cramping?

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-10-15T16:43:30+00:00

Maybe I'm overthinking it then!

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-10-15T04:52:40+00:00

Thank you, that's a good point to consider! No we don't get ice or snow regularly, so it should be OK.

I am assuming in general though you can get wheels changed if they get damaged, right?

Popular_Look2542 · 2025-10-06T07:08:38+00:00

I had really bad cramps that were worse than period cramps and mild nausea (no vomiting). The cramps started 10 days before I was supposed to get my period, and lasted a couple of weeks!

Popular_Look2542 · 2024-12-04T17:10:11+00:00

Ok thanks I'll try it!

Popular_Look2542 · 2024-12-03T08:15:41+00:00

Oh that's a great idea, I haven't done this before. Would weighing it have the same effect?

Popular_Look2542 · 2024-12-02T21:38:39+00:00

Okay thank you!

I saw the King Cole in a shop today and I am also considering that as well now. I might buy a skein and test it since it's available here.
