Breastfeeding timing

I have been told by a lactation consultant that I should nurse my 1+month baby for 20 minutes on one breast before switching to the other breast for 10 minutes. Does anyone follow this and does it work for you? Or can you please share how long do you usually nurse for on each breast? When I google, the results mostly advise that we let baby decide and control the timing of how long he wants to feed though. #1stimemom

Totally on baby’s demand. Mine nurse less then 5 min. But her weight gain, wet diaper/soil count are all normal and good. So I wouldn’t worry much. I know most of them, especially newborn nurse more than 20 min and continues latching (mostly for comfort. So it depends on baby. Just watch out for baby cues. Any sign of dehydration, wet diaper count and weight gain. 👌

Pregnancy waking up in the middle of the night

Hi does anyone experience waking up in the middle of the night during pregnancy? I am 5months pregnant now and this keeps happening to me. As a result, I often start my day tired and suffered fatigue throughout the day.#pleasehelp

Hi i am at week 24 now, have the same problem as you. Keep waking up in the middle of the night and having a hard time to fall back to sleep each time. And i feel tired all day after that.

Hi Mummies, are we supposed to buy flange for breastpump beforehand or after birth? Also, how do we professionally measure to get the right flange size?

The lactation consultant at Thomson Medical Centre visited me the morning after my delivery to give me a consultation, teach me to latch and measure my nipple size.

First time mum who wish to pump BM but unable due to tired and unable to wake up 3 to 4 hour for each session. Each pump only get 10ml to 30ml. Any advise if i should enagage those breast massage like Ida or Iza (cant remember the name) to see if there's any blockage?? Any advice?

Keep pumping! Blockage usually is quite painful or you can feel lump in your breast. Pumping is exhausting but you'll need patience and perserverance. If you've just given birth or still below 4 mths pp, you'll need to pump 8-12 times a day to increase your supply. Try to do power pumping too especially when your baby is asleep. I often do it only at night when baby is already in bed. By 4 mths normally your supply is established and you can already pump 4-5 hrly to maintain your milk supply.
