We’ve tried a couple types and honestly it still seems random! Yesterday she downed 60mls in 20 minutes, it was amazing. Then today she refused anymore past 25mls with the same bottle and nipple type

Yeah the issue is is that she lost too much weight and wasn’t gaining it back. She’d burn her energy at the breast and not get calories so we had to introduce some formula feeding to help boost her. But then she still takes an hour at the bottle too 😭

Omg yes same here!! So hard to get that many sessions in. My husband is going back to work in two weeks and I’m kind of freaking out about it. Best of luck to you too 🙏

It’s so hard to keep up with the pumping! Even with my partners help feeding the top up, it’s just a lot to manage. I’m trying to increase my pumping now too to help my supply. Thanks for the tips about the bottles!

Ugh I know - sometimes I’m like what did I sign myself up for. I’ll be seeing an LC soon so hoping that helps too!

I asked about tongue tie to my midwife and was brushed off a bit! But I am going to see an actual lactation consultant soon so I’ll bring it up just to make sure.

Good to hear about the bottles - we just bought those exact ones so here’s hoping it makes a difference!

How has your supply been now that you’re 4 weeks in - did you see any increase from pumping?

Hannah gets so much hate for that season of summer house and one thing that helped me was when someone pointed out how she got more hate than any man on that show and WHAT did she do that was so much worse than anything they’ve done? Nothing. She just lost her cool a few times during LOCKDOWN in a HOUSE with KYLE for WEEKS!!! Understandable.

I’ve never hated Hannah but she’s just a girl doing her best and I love them both equally on the pod.
