Preparing dl toddler for preschool

Anyone whose toddler is still directly latching for milk and has gone to school? Mine will be going to playgroup in a few months' time but still prefers to latch directly for milk. Rejects bottles and other milk. He latches before naptime in the day. Not sure how he's going to cope in school without nursing. Anyone to share experience please?

My wife started by trying the bottle for single feedings either when our child was not fussy or just after a regular feeding. He was fussy at first but slowly he started getting comfortable with the bottle.

9mo: How long to offer solid after milk

Hi, how long do you wait to offer a solid meal after milk? 45min, 1h, 1.4h or longer? My 9mo doesn't eat much (about 3tbsp of solids then he turns away). Tried extending the time interval between milk and solids also same. Curious about how others spread out their solid meals. Tia!

Usually i give milk first and after 30mins - 45 mins i gave my 10 months solid. Try both methods - BLW or spoon feed. And its okay if they don’take much as long as they finished their milk. U can give cooling food like yoghurt ( if no allergy with cow’s milk) or fruits too.

Milk supply drop during ovulation/period

Period came back at 4m though exclusively latching baby. Realised my milk supply started dropping a few days before it came and it was quite drastic. Baby constantly hungry but refuses to take bottle/ spoon/ cup. Now at 5m I'm taking legendairy, calcium/ magnesium supplements but the supply still dropped drastically and this time 2 weeks before period due to arrive. Anyone with similar experience? Want to give formula also cannot cos baby refuses to take a bottle. Now getting frustrated with the boob also cos flow is slow

Super Mom

Hi mama, Here’s an article on your period returning and a drop in BM supply: https://www.llli.org/breastfeeding-info/menstruation/ It’s normal for most mamas to experience this. Is baby producing at least 5-6 wet diapers and gaining weight well? If so, keep up the good work mama! Baby could also be fussing due to growth spurts during the 4 month and 6 months mark. To increase milk supply try: 1) having a nursing holiday - nurse baby frequently and relax with lots of fluids (cooling coconut water is good too) and your fave tv shows 2) lots of skin to skin 3) breast massages Here’s an article which may be helpful to you: https://kellymom.com/hot-topics/low-supply/ Hang in there mama.

Baby with sticky eye

Does your newborn/ infant has sticky eyes (yellow discharge from birth that hasn't gone away)? Mine had for both eyes ftom birth but one eye hasn't cleared yet. Doc said might be blocked tear duct and taught massage but now at 7 weeks still not cleared. When did yours go away and what helped? Thank you in advance

Hello mummy! Clean baby's eye with your breastmilk. It's good for that purpose too. Squeeze some milk on a cottonbud or cottonball and wipe baby's eyes gently with it. Keep doing it until baby's eyes are clear.
