Flange inserts measurements

Im a first time mom-to-be. From what i see pumps usually comes in bigger sizes like 24/28mm however i have a smaller nipple and need to buy the flange inserts. However im not exactly sure how to calculate the right flange size. I know theres a ruler for it but I googled and a some say add 4mm to your nipple measurement some say 2mm. Anyone knows? And is it best to buy before or after delivery? #advicepls #firstbaby

Hello mummies! Share with me your favourite breastfeeding pump? For my firstborn I’ve used spectra 9+ but just wondering if there is any good ones out there that is more on-the-go/hands-free pump before i invest into one.

I'm on week 30 of my pregnancy as ftm. My boobs didnt grow bigger and they are not sore yet. Unlike my first pregnancy which resulted in a miscarriage, I had v sore boobs and they grew quite a lot within the first 10 weeks. I'm worried that I may not have breast milk. Do other mummy's have similar experiences?

Less suction with Pigeon gomini pump

Hi Mummies, I am experiencing issues with Pigeon gomini digital pump. In every session, I can only pump maximum 70 ml. After this when I hand express, I can easily get 50 ml more. But hand express is so tedious every time ? Can I check if so change pump to some other brand, I can get more milk out ? Any other mummies faced this ? #pleasehelp #firsttimemum

seems like this pump not suitable for you, best to try another.

How to increase or prepare for breastfeeding?

Currently in my 24weeks, would like to know how can we prepare in advanced to ensure we have enough breastmilk after delivery? Is it too late to start taking any food or supplements to help stimulate milk supply??

Too much fish (mercury) intake during confinement

I just started my confinement and have been taken 2 servings of low mercury fish (cod & threadfin) daily for a week - total 14 servings in 1 week. However just realised that recommended serving for breastfeeding mom is 2-3 servings per week. Should I worried if it will affect my baby since I'm breastfeeding? I'm concerned if any mercury build up will affect my child.

Just check which codfish you’re having, some are Chilean seabass sold as codfish and those have high mercury and should be taken 1x a week:) there was an mothership article a while back on that

Impact of Breastmilk

Hi all mummies, Just wondering if you breastfeeding your baby for so long. Is it true your baby never get sick? Personally I have stopped BF at 2 months plus. for my mental health. However, quite fed up when ppl keep telling u. U need to BF at least 1 year. Everyone has different case. Why need to force all woman to BF 6 to 1 year? So is it true baby will not get sick and nver go see PD since. BM will help your baby immunity? #BreastfebBabies #immunity #firsttiimemom #firstbaby
