Hello, I’m not exclusive pumping, mostly breastfeeding but have some questions. I have been pumping once a day to build a stash for when I go out, my baby will be fed. I realized my stash is getting to big so I was thinking of donating it but they want 5-10 litres in 2 months. I pump about 60-90 ml in one pump session after feeding my baby. I increased to pumping 2-3 times a day and now each pump session dropped to around 30-60 ml. What is happening?

Other question I have is I read if I don’t empty my breast, my supply will drop. I’m scared it will drop so it’s not enough for even my baby.

I have a blue spectra and when pump, sometimes theres like no milk unless I squeeze. Sometimes there’s a ton without squeezing. I pump the same time of day, and its also after I feed my baby. What might be happening?

How can you tell you’re empty? When I pump there’s like always a bit of milk coming out even after 15 mins. Im scared to overpump.

Will squeezing to much hurt my supply? Right now it’s easy but I’m worried trying to get more milk to donate will make me lose all my milk so my baby won’t get it. Is this possible?

Thank you!

I don’t know if it will be rude to create a task to talk to someone to see if they are able to remove curtain rods, and fill in the hole they leave behind on the ceiling which has popcorning on it, so the holes need to have popcorn also.

I want to ask to get a price basically since I am not sure how hard that is to do, so not sure how long or expensive it will be.

Is this a hard task to do? About how long does it take? Thank you

I haven’t showered in a little over a week after recently joining the club. Finally showered and felt so good and fresh. Baby cried before I could towel off, went to her, and now in have puke on me. yay…

Currently in the ER because baby has not peed in 24 hours.

The Doctor says she is not dehydrated and wants to give her 118 ml of formula to see in she will pee. She is 3 days old so that is a ton of formula. They want me to keep waking her up and forcing more on her. They also don’t have the right nipples so she is struggling to drink it since it flows so fast.

We have been here 7 hours and she has a hospital visit later in 8 hours. I just want to take her home and give her formula with the right nipple and let her rest and then have her seen at her hospital appointment.

Is there anything I should stay for if she is not dehydrated that is urgent or can I just go? I feel so awful because it’s like I’m torturing her keeping her awake and she is getting cold from me having to take her blanket off for so long.
