I’m really struggling to get my newborn to feed, he’s definitely not eating enough and it’s causing me so much stress - he can sleep for hours on end! Any tips/reassurance? I’d love to just breastfeed but wondering if it’s better to add some bottle feeding in at least too?
My little boy will turn 1 in just over 2 weeks, and I'm running out of formula. Would it be horrendous for me to start weaning him to cows milk now?

Looking for recommendations for a decent bra that's comfortable (no underwire) but also looks nice.
We currently call it milkies but I feel like that's a bit too advanced. My baby is 8 months old and can say Mama with meaning. I was thinking if I could teach her to ask for milk before she starts nursery that it would be really helpful. What do other people use? Meemee? Something similar?

Has anyone had experience with moving from just breastfeeding to bottle feeding with breast milk early on? I have a 2 week old and the pain with breastfeeding is unbearable with nipple pain and not being able to let my nipples heal properly…
I need to stop breastfeeding my two year old. He uses it to go to fall asleep. Without boob, he will stay up all night. I’ve tried putting things in my nipple and he doesn’t care, he will still nurse.
Can I take anything for allergies while breastfeeding? I don’t want to harm baby or impact milk supply but my allergies are so bad.
I’m 80% breast feeding/pumping and I’m not loosing any weight! Is anyone else in the same boat? I feel terrible and not like myself. Nothing fits.
I’ve just had a breakdown twice today over breastfeeding and my lack of supply. My girl is 11 weeks and at the beginning supplemented worth formula until my milk came in. From weeks 3 till 11 I’ve been breastfeeding with one formula bottle only given. But all of a sudden, my mike gone to shit and she’s so hungry I ...
Mamas question? So my 3 weeks old LO isn’t very good at latching. She only latches good on my left breast. But every time I put her on my right breast she seem not to be able to latch I’ve tried all the positions nothing seem to work?
