When is the best time to start using nipple shields?
Hi everyone So I gave birth on to my Lil' bundle of joy on Tuesday morning & I can honestly say absolutely everything has gone smoothly since the moment she was born ( I feel gifted :) ) Im exclusively
breastfeeding
& I plan to continue like this up until the baby is at least 3 months old.

Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric breastfeeding pump - yay or nay?
I just bought a tommee tippee closer to nature electric
breastfeeding
pump for the bargain price of £12.50 from Asda and looking online prices seem to vary from £60-£100 so I'm super happy with my purchase! It was the last one in stock so they must just have wanted to get rid I think!

Breastfeeding ... what you do not know about it.
Good evening ladies. I had my baby boy two weeks ago. I had a long and painful induction and an emergency caesarian. So I ended up staying in the hospital for 3 days. The first day of my baby's life I barely remember as I was in constant pain, in bed with orders to not move much. I do remember trying

I'm still
breastfeeding
yay! I'm so pleased with myself we feed anywhere with the modesty cloth. Lol baby's not bothered by it either. The routine is still pretty much the same but to stop him from going crazy after school pickup feed him in the car before I collect the kids.

Unfortunately It's struck again. PP Second time around. Warning early mania in progress.
I'm also sad that I've worked hard to establish good
breastfeeding
with my daughter but now I'll have to be more aware of when I feed her and may not be able to do night feeds for a while. Hopefully I'm more successful at expressing than I was last time.

Should I take Quetiapine as a precaution?
She is suggesting it mostly to ensure that I am able to sleep, however in order to establish good
breastfeeding
I will need to feed overnight anyway. My husband is very supportive although he is more cautious than me.

Breastfeeding with nipple shields
I just wanted to reassure people about
Breastfeeding
. I breast fed my previous 2 children but Isaac was a different kettle of fish! Whilst growing in me he devloped a habit of sucking his tongue to the roof of his mouth.

Cancer? I have just had a routine CT on my thyroid pre surgery & they have found multiple small (less 1cm) nodules in lungs..
I still sleep in bed with baby,
breastfeeding
& we are inseparable. I'm just not ready and consultant says he's happy to medicate for 2yrs but I should have the op. Any thoughts on any of this would be amazing. Honest opinions welcome. Much love people. X

Breastfeeding question
I'm due on 12th of oct & planning to try & breast feed but just wondered how do you know when the baby is hungry? I know when my sis had her little boy the MW told her to feed every 3 hours to start with & then go to 4 but he was bottle fed. Do you do the same or do you wait til they look for milk?

Breastfeeding and Caesarean
Hi Mums and Mums to Be! Just thought I would share my experience so others don't suffer the same. My baby boy was born by emergency caesarean. I had already decided that I would try BF if I could. I stayed in hospital for a total of 3 days to get some BF support before going home. During my stay I was

Breastfeeding pumps Manual VS Electric.......
Hi ladies So I'm really considering buying a breast pump but Ive always being the a girl who likes to buy something which is both quality for money & not too high priced ( Aka a bargain) My mind is obviously telling me that an electric pump is better than a manual pump as its most likely to save more
