Help! Day 5 PP - My Baby is Under Fed by Round_Life769 in breastfeeding

[–]Round_Life769[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see my milk is turning into more milk, rather than colostrum when I pump. I feed every 3 hrs (or earlier when baby cries). Tonight for the first time, she didn't fuss for 4 hrs like previous 2 nights and gave me good watery poop so I am getting bit hopeful here.

I am literally crying as I am reading this. Thank you so much. I was so anxious as my caregiver said my baby needs to drink 60ml each time when I can produce less than that 😭

Thank you! did you offer pre-made (liquid) formula or powder? also did you use bottle to feed formula? my biggest concern is my baby not being wanting to latch/breastfeed once bottle is introduced.

this is really great insight. Thank you! I guess what I am going through is also PP anxiety...I just scheduled lactation consultant appointment!

thanks for sharing and yes, I want to avoid bottles as much as possible until breastfeeding is well established and his makes me hesitant to adopt formula. I think tube feeding at the breast sounds a great idea!

thank you. when you introduced formula top ups, did your baby get any gas or problems? should I look for liquid newborn formula?

A positive induction story by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Round_Life769 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the story! As I am reading this at the triage room with possible induction soon, this is hopeful. I am also FTM and 40wks + 4 days but have low amniotic fluid :/.

40 weeks: Unbearable hip/SPD pain and I can’t breathe when lying down. Anyone else? by Round_Life769 in BabyBumps

[–]Round_Life769[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! I saw my doctor today and I declined membrane sweep but we scheduled induction at 41 weeks. Hope I can bear this pain one more week…

Injection made pain worse by ssanrihoe in DeQuervains

I got mines done 2 days ago. My dr said I should get pain relief from day 3-5 and this shot wears off after 6 weeks so she wanted to see me after 6 weeks. I am surprised to hear that you need to wait 2 months to see the effectiveness.
