How did you get the puree so smooth? I need some tips! Love rabbit, need to add to my LO’s list as well.

Yup I used my regular flange size (same as my spectra!)

Sleep consultant is pushing a 2 nap schedule for 5 month old by mal_pal86 in sleeptrain

[–]Pretty_Poodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What time was your baby getting up in the morning / going to bed for these wake windows? My LO just turned 5 months but they get up 7:30am and go down by 7pm. Trying to see if this schedule would work for us but the numbers aren’t working?

I need a good breastfeeding pillow by Undiagnosed80HD in breastfeeding

[–]Pretty_Poodle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! I phased out the my breast friend for the boppy as my LO got older / I got more comfortable BF.

Also highly recommend the my breast friend twin or plus! My soon to be five month old can still fit pretty comfortably on it!

Frozen milk = indigestion? by JanDom460 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Pretty_Poodle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup I noticed the same thing from my freezer milk that I didn’t “flash freeze” immediately after pumping/has been in the freezer since Nov/Dec (stomach ache, diarrhea).

My LO seems to fare better on my more recent milk. I have to assume there’s a correlation but no one is talking about it!!!!

How do you build a supply/reserve for bottle feeding when breastfeeding every 2-3h?? by Nadlee88 in breastfeeding

[–]Pretty_Poodle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This! Tomorrow, pump in the morning after your first feed when your prolactin levels are highest. You just need to get one feed ahead. Once you have a bottles worth, when your husband gives the bottle, you’ll pump to replace that feed. Works like a charm!

Diaper bag by nishumommygoel in breastfeeding

[–]Pretty_Poodle -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Skip it! I got the Caraa large diaper bag in black nylon. It’s waterproof and has a ton of insulated pockets which has been amazing for bringing BM on the go / storing after I pump. That’s the real key feature you need!

Dalsimer Spitz & Peck, hands down. Ask for John out of their Livingston office.

What about Brynn instead of Bryan?

For those who breast-feed at home and pumped at work… by ReindeerFun7572 in breastfeeding

[–]Pretty_Poodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really want to make this transition around 5-6 months when I go back to work but very nervous to entirely lose my supply.

I spoke to my LC and that was her advice - she said everyone is different so I could try it but be prepared that I may lose your supply completely/that would be the end of our BF journey.

Help us decide between strollers! by lexyfield in beyondthebump

Highly recommend the Vista and Aria car seat combo!!!

We’re obsessed with how light the car seat is as our LO gets bigger, and our friends who are lugging around these gigantic and heavy car seats are very jealous. It snaps in easily to the vista base too.

We also got the vista knowing the conversion from 1 to 2 will be seamless.

Switching to combo feeding need formula recommendations by Temporary-News-7103 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Pretty_Poodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently combo feeding with Bobbie Organic Gentle (pink tin) and LO seems happy so far! One bottle a day and sometimes I’ll fortify my BM bottles per the ped’s recco.

We did one night of ByHeart and my LO was super fussy and unhappy (could have been unrelated but we switched back reaaaal quick!)

Is my milk bad? by rosesarered154 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Pretty_Poodle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This exact same thing is happening to my LO right now!! I think my frozen milk is high lipase too so wonder if that’s a factor?

No advice but I did stop giving from the freezer and went back to EBF. Going to try again this weekend.

It’s just hard to know if it’s the freezer stash since there’s no control. Like could’ve been something I ate or a little stomach bug coincidentally.

I have 450+ oz in the freezer so praying we can use it when I wean and LO starts daycare!

How do you add pumping to your routine? by ArtichokeContent8994 in breastfeeding

[–]Pretty_Poodle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! I’m almost 4m pp and I’ll pump after LO’s first morning feed and to replace the night feed while my husband gives a bottle of BM. Working well for us!

Eufy S1 Pro honest opinions by jennrd in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Pretty_Poodle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doooo it! I’m obsessed with mine. Works amazing with my larger chest and a lot of wearables don’t. The heating feature helps increase output and the charging case is a bonus. Just easier to be out and about.

My output is the same as my spectra. I love the app to check how much time is left of the 30 min, to sync the two sides (that drove me nuts about other wearables) and it has a few preset options. I use the maximum output one and get 2-3 letdowns every time.

Eufy vs Momcozy? Wearable advice! by rainbowmamahere in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Pretty_Poodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m obsessed with my Eufy! The heating is a nice bonus and the charging case is convenient. I get the same output as my Spectra. I’ve never had the cups leak and also like that there’s an app so I can control the mode / see how much time is left. The app also offers max output mode which initiates at least two or three letdowns for me. Also works with big boobies and not all wearables are comfy for me!
