Avatar n tn Her weight is below the 5th percentile and her height is just below the 25th percentile for her age. Have you pumped to check your breast milk production? At 10 months old she does not need to be breast feeding every 3 hours. Guideline for a 9-12 month old child should eat the following: Breast-milk or Formula (6-8oz) 3-5 feedings a day, Dairy 1 serving a day – cheese (1/2 oz) or yogurt (1/2 cup).
Avatar f tn So I am 39 weeks pregnant and I still don't have any breast milk. I deliver Friday,an wanted to know if I will have milk then for my baby to drink. I do plan on breast feeding but I still don't have a milk discharge.
Avatar n tn we eat vegetarian food +eggs and I want menu plan and feeding schedules how to feed him all the nutrition he need.Can I still continue giving him breast milk or I need to switch to cow milk . I am worried whether he is getting all the protien,fat,carb from his milk or do I need to switch to cow milk.I am giving him 1/4 cup cereal with 2 spoons of fruit for breakfast.1/4 cup rice ,1/4 cup protien,2 tablespoons of vegetable for lunch and same for dinner .In between he will drink milk.
Avatar n tn Most breast-feed infants do not like infant formula and need it mixed with breast milk to accept it. If the bottle of infant formula tastes like breast milk she will accept the bottle more. Try mixing ¾ breast milk and ¼ infant formula at first. If she does accept it, then after a week or so, try doing a bottle mix of ½ breast milk, and ½ formula. If you wish, you can gradually go to a bottle mix of ¼ breast milk and ¾ formulas, then totally to all formula depending on how she accepts it.

2000226 tn?1327565559 Thanks for your ans.Breast feeding and also bottle feeding.Her doctor give AL110 milk for her with breast feeding.My baby every day stool out almost 14 times but the stool is not too hard or not too soft.Just medium soft.Her doctor told us that this is ok.No problem.But we are tense of her growth.Please advise.
Avatar n tn Start with ¾ breast milk and ¼ Pedisure or Milk, go to half and half, then ¼ breast milk and ¾ Pedisure or Milk, and finally to all Pedisure or Milk. You can do each mix every 3-4 days as long as she is accepting the mixture. She will get used to the Pedisure or Milk taste gradually. Suggest trying other dairy sources, such as yogurt and cheese, too once she accepts milk and or Pediasure. Hoped this helped you.
Avatar f tn So I pump a little extra milk to give to my boy while breastfeeding thru a dropper trying to help him gain some weight but my question is I know milk is good at room temp like 10 hrs but I noticed it starts to seperate... Is that okay?
Avatar f tn I Had the same problem,I'm a ftm. You need to stimulate your breast try using a breast pump if you have one or ask your partner to suck them that also helps a lot. Hope This helps and drink plenty of fluids. You will be fine. Good luck dear.
3158442 tn?1344311653 I know breast pumping/feeding is a great way to lose the post partum weight, I pumped for 2 weeks after I had my first baby last year, but I have decided not to this time, I don't have time to with a one year and a newborn lol but I have more weight on me than I did after my first so now I'm worried about not losing it as quickly or it staying and more weight adding on, so I'm wondering if I could try to start pumping a little here and there, its been 2 weeks today since I delivered
Avatar f tn After your milk dries up did your boobs stay that size? Or did they return to size prepregnancy? Or decrease?
Avatar f tn I have been exclusively breast feeding on demand. We went to the week check up on her for low birth weight and she weighed 4 pounds 8 ounces. The doctor said that was normal and to continue to breastfeed. She is having latching and sucking problems so she gets really frustrated after 10 minutes and eventually gives up but I keep trying to get her to feed. The doctor told me to come back 3 days after that visit for another weight check and she lost 3 more ounces!
Avatar n tn I cut down some calories that im trying to stay lower than 1000 cals aday but my breast milk is becoming less as i noticed !! Do u have any specific diet for breast feeding moms ? Thanks!
2207301 tn?1340990867 I think you can go from formula to breast milk, I never asked my doc
Avatar n tn Infant formula has the same nutrients for brain development as breast milk. The question why he stopped drinking the breast milk in the first place is an important one to ask. Did you wean him off, or you stopped producing breast milk, or he on his own stopped drinking it? These are questions needing to be answered before you decide to try to refeed him breast milk.
Avatar m tn When a women gets pregnant their breast fill with milk and if they breast feed the milk is then released causing tissue in your breast to break down, the same thing happens with loosing weight. If a women doesn't wear the proper bra this type of thing will happen. The suggestion I can make is to take your girl to a store where they do proper bra fittings (like Dillard's) and get her measured and find a proper bra that will hold her breast tissue in place.
Avatar f tn Hello everyone I'm a second time mommy. I had my son yesterday morning. He's a premature baby boy. (35 weeks) I don't have no breast milk. I been pumping milk for 10 minutes each one. And all I get is little drops of milk. I feel bad I want to breastfeed my premature baby. To help him gain some weight and give him the vitimins he needs.I don't want to leave him at the hospital I want to take him with me.
Avatar f tn When do you know you are producing milk? My mom wasn't able to produce with me and I am wondering if you can know that before the baby comes? Or if my doctor can tell.
Avatar f tn Also if I get the freezer bags to freeze my milk because I tend to carry a lot of milk. How long is the frozen milk good for and how do you defrost it.
Avatar f tn Some people swear it does I personally lost just as much weight just as fast breast feeding my second as I did formula feeding my first. I might have even lost more formula feeding then breast feeding.
10821765 tn?1427311586 If your baby is growing and has enough poopy and wet diapers every day (check the internet for a chart for the right amount at different ages), then baby is getting enough. There is often another reason why baby is fussy, and often it's not because they're hungry. Reasons may include: tiredness (i finally figured out this was the main reason my first would cry, not hunger), gassy/needing to be burped, overstimulated.
