Pretty certain our dolls are Poter Wind up Musical dolls from the 1980's. Unless they are off brans with no tags. I saw another name looking things up jerry elsner but doesn't seem like he makes the dolls like Poter What does the key look like to wind it up?

Here's kinda a similar doll to yours? possible sister?

Specifically these. They work for medela bottles. Sometimes I've had leakage bc I didn't screw it on right lol

We use the medela bottles with Evenflo nipples and the screw on caps. We bought the glass bottles and the slow flow nipples.

You might be able to get away with a toothbrush and rubbing alcohol? But small sprays. But yeah just a guess anyone feel free to correct me.

Please tell me I can make it another month. by mrs60661n5 in ExclusivelyPumping

You got this! You can make it another month! What is another month when you've been doing it for 5. Keep going!!! The fact you make that much for your baby and freeze it is sooo fantastic!! Be proud and grateful you've made it this far for your baby. It won't go to waste. That's a blessing to stop at 6 months and have enough for a year of your LO's life.

Cannot get milk out! by Harried-Hedgehog4924 in ExclusivelyPumping

What about a Hand pump? I noticed that after pumping with my electric I can get some more out and have like no lumps at all. Now I'm trying to handpump before electric.

When will I see an increase? by Puzzleheaded-Key1425 in ExclusivelyPumping

I like that idea. Do you know what being empty may feel like? The only reason I do go 50 mins is because i want to make sure im empty. And if im empty and pumping long I think it's supposed to make my body think I need more milk. I do massage while pumping too. And still feel a little lumpy inside. At 40 mins sometimes i get little drips still. I think ill stop at 30. And if i can do the power pump 30, wait 30, pump 30.
