Newborn always crying and wants to latch

Hi Mummies, I am a first time mum here and I am looking for advise on breastfeeding as I am really confused and worried on what to do. My baby is 12 days old now and recently I have noticed that he cries a lot even after latching. It seems like he always wants to latch. Right after latching he shows latching cues again. In one sitting he latches for approximately 45 mins. I am super confused and worried on what could be the reason here. Family is suggesting that I introduce bottle as he latches for too long very frequently but I don’t want to as I feel that he won’t latch then. Any mummies who experienced this ? What shall I do ? I am feeling sad that even after frequent latching it seems that baby is hungry that is why he cries. Please help mummies 🙏 #advicepls #firsttimemom

Bb hungry so latch for food.

Low milk supply

Hi! Wondering if milk supply increases in week 3/4? Currently in week 2 and milk supply low at 40ml both sides combined. Have been pumping/latching 3 hourly for the last week :(

How long to latch in one session for a newborn ?

Hi Mummies, Can I know how long do we need to latch newborn baby ? My newborn is 10 days old and I want to know what is the right duration for latching #firsttimemom #advicepls

It should be roughly 15 to 20 mins or more per session. As they age up, it will be lesser. Do remember to pump for 20 to 30 mins every 3 to 4 hrs after latching so your breast can get the milk production momentum.

Taking panadol while Breastfeeding

Hi mummies, any of you have taken this during BF? Is it safe?

Taking panadol while Breastfeeding

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr. Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him

Baby latching well but getting agitated with syringe

Hi Mummies, My baby boy is 1 week old and he is latching well but if sometimes we have to top up with formula - we use syringe. But as the baby is growing, he gets irritated with syringe as he has nothing to suck on. What do I do ? Any suggestion mummies ? I don’t want to introduce bottle this early - it will obstruct the latching that is established now #pleasehelp #firsttimemom

I dont think using syringe in long run helps. Pardon me if this is incorrect. But if you are using formula milk, introduce bottle fed. And this definitely do not interefere direct latching. Why do I say so? Because in this modern era, we have many types of brand bottle that has bottle teats similar to mummy nipples. Well not 100% but it replicates it. And in the long run, if your baby grow up and you have to wean off, you will still have to introduce milk bottle. Baby's get irritated/agitated because they dislike it. So make a change. Both of my kids direct latch and use bottle for FM/BM. The only reason most babies sometimes on the other hand prefers direct latch because of mummies smell, bonding between you and them. So try to introduce milk teat instead of syringe.

I'm planning to mix my Bm into food puree for my bb, Pls adv how do I freeze my Bm into smaller cubes in ice tray n what's e proper way of storing it? Cos keeping them in e usual milk storage bags doesn't seem to be e way, THX:)

I would not advise you to mix the milk during preparation but rather use water to prepare and cook, freeze. Then when you want to use it, warm up and add in the fresh bm. In that way the milk Remains fresh.
