[@wilvarosa9336]

I combine breastfeeding and pumping because I need freedom. By pumping I can share feeding responsabilities and get more done, and REST.

[@NewLittleLife]

Love it 💙

[@juliethortegoncasilimas3634]

I tried combining and ended up with an abess 😢

[@francoral]

I wish I had this information in my hands eleven years ago with my second child. The stress of going back to work after only six weeks and everyone saying I had to have this HUGE supply took a enormous toll in my physical and mental health. Thank you for saying is ok.

[@NewLittleLife]

I hear this all too often... Thank you for sharing a little bit of your story here. It's so much more common than you think!

[@gofishing9089]

OMG I need this lady in my life. Her video helps me to be confident in myself, not to worry about my supply and enjoy my breastfeeding/pumping journey ❤

[@totesmegoatscrystal9688]

A little more freedom to get things done since she cluster eats at times. I also dont feel comfortable nursing in public, so for when we are out or company i dont want to nurse infront of. There are only a few people i dont mind seeing my breast. And to make night time feeding go a little faster so i can get more sleep and hubby can also feed her too.

[@jillianwalker22]

Love your videos!! It is rare to find a breastfeeding / pumping channel with both quality expert advice *and* high video quality. Thanks for your help!

[@sierraarmstrong4111]

And flange sizing i wish MORE woman knew about!! I was using a 24mm a LC told me it wasnright and after doing my own research bc of pain and discomfort while pumping i realized i actually needed a 14mm flange insert!! No pain or discomfort while pumping and i got double the milk out! I tell every mom that says their going to pump to measure their own nipples and how to get the correct size bc its such an important part of pumping!

[@alishamaxine375]

Thank you! You are speaking to my soul, especially towards the end. I wish I found this video before I started pumping to figure out if it’s even right for me. I am definitely going on a binge to watch the rest of the videos you put in the description thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[@NewLittleLife]

I’m so glad! Reach out if you need help 💙

[@ChickenPermission617]

Thanks for the info and referencing other videos! I’m a new SAHM, and I found these to be helpful for me as well! Sent to my working mom friend too!

[@sarah-s9y8b]

I'm basically a just-enougher, and I love it. To me, it means my body is responding to my baby exactly how it should. I have a friend who produced so much, she needed to pump every two hours exactly (and would wake in the night to do so), or she would be majorly engorged. Paired with that, her baby had such bad lip and tongue ties, he could not latch, so she was pumping every two hours, getting tons of milk each time (much more than necessary), and spending extra time feeding. I felt so bad for her: she was barely sleeping.

[@NewLittleLife]

I love this perspective… thank you for sharing!!

[@LawalOlasunkanmi-lr4ry]

This is exactly what I’ve been searching for! So much useful information. 👍”

[@mobmo87]

😢so sad that I didn’t see this video sooner and get your help. The anxiety of going back to work as a first time mom has put a damper on my whole journey and experience as a new mother. The key point you made was getting advice from non pumping lactation specialists. I decided to give up on Mother’s Day and have an overwhelming feeling of guilt, shame and true grief over the loss of the experience I thought I would have.

[@NewLittleLife]

I’m so sorry you’re experience wasn’t what you had hoped. You’re a great mother, no matter how you choose to feed your baby though 💙bring a working mom is so hard!

[@NewLittleLife]

Don’t quit pumping because you can’t find the right support!!!!! bit.ly/3ZPLIWp

[@gabbywhit]

My baby isn’t eating well at the breast and I’m only pumping about 15oz a day. He eat 18-24oz a day☹️

[@Shay2020.]

Hi! Do you have any experience working with moms who have breast inplants OVER the muscle. And lollipop lift? It it still possible?

[@NewLittleLife]

It is possible, but depends a lot on what ducts we’re cut and how they healed during surgery. Everyone is different in what they can do after a surgery like this. No reason not to give it a go if you want to though!

[@janimaritz3869]

Hi thanks for the great video, i pump occasionally due to excess milk and sometimes baby does not drink both sides in all sessions so at this point thats why i pump to avoid getting engorged. I am not sure i am following the right steps here and if this can effect my milk supply

[@lizzyxx502]

Me too

[@sindhujarao4222]

I am not able to combine pumping and breastfeeding. Was able to pump milk better few days ago but since 2 days i am not. Breastfeeding is going well but pumping is not. So should i stop pumping? My baby is 4 weeks old now. My goal is to pump to get some rest

[@lisagiannoumis3816]

Isn't just enough the goal? If you have an oversupply it can be uncomfortable and cause mastitis and other physical problems. I think I'm making maybe a tad more than I need, using it to build a supply for going back to work. I'm happy with that 🤷

[@NewLittleLife]

Just enough is a great goal! I see many wishing for more but it does come with some of the things you mentioned. Hoping to normalize a more realistic expectation 💕

[@THEEprincesavanessa]

Odd question… can I use a hakka to express while breastfeeding simultaneously? My goal is to get my baby used to the bottle so when she is away from me. Will this affect my input/output supply? (I’ll be at work, while dad cares for her).

[@NewLittleLife]

You can! Recommended just a couple times a day to avoid an oversupply, but definitely a great option for some bottle practice.

[@MILAMGM]

After meeting a few different lactation consultants, seems like my breastfeeding journey is going well but my pumping one is still unresolved. The only pump that is working for me is a manual and idk if the flange size is also important for manual pumps or it doesn’t matter too much??

[@Lauren-se5bu]

How do you exclusively breastfeed and go out in public? I don't want to breastfeed in public but also don't want to resort to formula. If I pump between breastfeeding sessions it's not enough milk output.

[@RavenRose88]

I think my schedule will be bf exclusively but pumping at the unoccupied breast to catch the letdown. Your channel helped! Thanks!!

[@tracy3418]

Haaka works well for that

[@marrisagoff5343]

What is considered low milk supply?

[@NewLittleLife]

If you don’t have enough breast milk to meet your babies daily needs 💕

[@risabug7772]

I wish I had watched your videos with my first baby. I had PPD and anxiety on top of family stressing me out. I tried to latch my daughter every time but she would get mad bc the flow wasn't fast enough. Then I would end up pumping. I got so overwhelmed 😢 my supply diminished to drops by 10 weeks. I was so frustrated. What do you recommend?

[@shellybelle6781]

What did you end up Doing?

[@sierraarmstrong4111]

This is has been such a challenge for me with my 4th i pumped and nursed my 3rd child i had a HUGE stash not bc i needed it for work or anything i was just terrified of not producing enough like with my 2nd child so i nursed and then pumped an hour after nursing, while nursing i also pumped the other side bc i produced enough to fill him up on one side and then let him drain the littke bit left behind on the other breast i was CONSTANTLY either nursing or pumping and it sucked sometimes but then i remembered how important it was for me to breastfeed successfully and that dread or exhaustion went away. And i think thats why we made it to 1 year of nursing! and im glad i did that bc while moving nursing got kinda pusjed aside bc we were on a time crunch and by time we got moved and settledimy milk supply tanked but bc i had all that freezer stash i coyld still gove him breastmilk for months! I wassnt emotionally or mentally prepared to feel the grief and depression that followed after stopping nursing it really hit me hard infelt like i lost a piece of myself. With my 4th im finding it so difficult to pump like i want to its like i cant find the time when hes ALWAYS on the boob 😢 dr says he should be taking about 2-3oz and i collect 2-3oz just with the let down using the hakka but he never empties me and i want to keep my supply up yet i can never pump bc he cried most of the time unless hes on the boob😪

[@Mrs.SeriousAboutMeals]

I think it’s great to being an enougher, I’ve combine breast feeding and pumping.

[@sansar330]

Is it necessary to pump after breastfeeding, if baby empties the breast?

[@NewLittleLife]

Nope! If baby’s doing great eating and managing the milk supply, no need to pump 👍🏼

[@Missbayka]

10 days pp baby is constantly on me except for in the morning. I catch anywhere from 2-7.5mL in the haaka while nursing and get the same if I pump in between a morning feed (1hr after he has eaten) is that normal? Also I only have 1 letdown pumping or using haaka

[@brittanypennington9716]

Can your flange size change from baby to baby? Just curious if women usually stay the same size, even if their breast size changes/they gain weight from pregnancy to pregnancy/nursing experience.

[@NewLittleLife]

Things change for sure! Flange sizes even change a little bit throughout the first year postpartum.

[@Savanahhernandez12]

Is it ok to pump one breast while baby feeds on the other? With the pump settings on low. And stop when baby stops her feeding. Because of pain and bleeding to one side. I don’t want to create an oversupply I just want to empty a little bit for comfort. Since it’s very painful the whole time she feeds on that breast.

[@NewLittleLife]

That sounds like a great way to maintain your supply while your breast heals.

[@Savanahhernandez12]

Thank you so much for the response!

[@deepikaarora6597]

You’re amazing

[@IntuitivStrength]

I want to be a “just enougher” I am afraid of being an oversupplier! I’m nervous to start pumping because of that but really want to have at least a bottle or two available for dad to feed occasionally maybe once per night!

[@NausheenSiddiquiAdorableShe]

Did you start pumping??

[@IntuitivStrength]

Yes I did but usually only To replace a feed, if I’m going somewhere or to work, but I have had a hard time getting an “extra” pump in- I did enough to have an emergency few ounces in the freezer … but I’m bad at pumping more than I have to lol

[@cookwithme1698]

So there is need to pump while breastfeeding ?

[@NewLittleLife]

Not unless you need or want to 🤷🏼‍♀️ breastfeeding is designed to work! It doesn’t always work smoothly, but often it sure can.

[@cookwithme1698]

@@NewLittleLife thank you yes that make sense, I’m a first time mom with a newborn and I feed my baby almost all the time and I pump when we need to go out only and I don’t get much from pumping (2oz) not sure if I’m not doing right or I don’t do it long enough and I think when I’m ready to go back to work I will pump fresh milk every day or will see. Thank you for the helpful videos.

[@serenitymareebeauty]

My issue is I have milk all day than at night it’s like my milk dries up. My baby is only 3 weeks old. I was pumping and feeding and had so much milk than somehow I stopped pumping and began exclusively nursing so I’m just confused as to what’s going on overall. I think I’m just tired and it’s affecting my milk supply

[@iqragilani5582]

Hey pls, comment on Tommie Tippie Electric Breast Pump..Is that a good pump?

[@safa5033]

Get a Spectra, even the cheapest Spectra is better than all these others, I wish I would have spent the same amount on that instead of my Philips Avent double pump.

[@salma_Nella22]

@@safa5033 the spectra 1 specifically, it’s the portable version!

[@tanzeelshaikh628]

Hi. Do I have to clean my breast before pumping because i am pumping after nursing.

[@NewLittleLife]

Good question! No need to clean the breast unless you need to wipe off some ointment or something.

[@tanzeelshaikh628]

Hello, 1) If I thaw milk in warm water is it still good for 24 hours? 2) should I put back in the fridge or leave outside of the fridge the leftover milk which I want to use within 2hours for next feed?

[@christinekubo8817]

How would you recommend pumping while your baby is also cluster feeding? I’m doing combined feeding so my husband can give our baby 1-2 bottles at night while I’m sleeping and I feel like I’m attached to our baby or a pump at every single moment! HELP 😭

[@NewLittleLife]

It is tricky when you start looking to pump extra milk during the day and skipping sessions at night. I’m recommend not at the same time hour little one is cluster feeding, ideally you’re still removing milk at night, but otherwise first thing in the morning may be a better time. Depending on how far postpartum you are, be cautious about removing nighttime milk removal. It’s important!

[@lexxikostick7348]

I recently just got sick for about a week and it tanked my milk supply I am 6 months postpartum and it hasn’t come back since. Is there hope it’ll come back? The help I have gotten isn’t much help from lactation consultants they said pump in between and after your breastfeeds. But I’ve always done that. But to no prevail it hasn’t come back :( I know he isn’t getting enough because his weight stopped increasing all together and he lost a few ounces

[@rearksstyles1913]

Im pumping because my baby wont latch due to my inverted nipples. He is 1 mo.

[@umiluv]

Same.

[@MountainMama77]

Just gave birth 3 days ago and I have WAY too much milk. Day 3 and baby is now having problems latching because she keeps crying. 😢 so I had to pump because I'm engorged. Idk where all the milk came from.. 😕 I pumped 3 minutes and got 2.5oz. I'm nervous it's too much! 😓

[@shellybelle6781]

Just keep pumping and getting your supply

[@danielleworbts4803]

6 week post portum en was pumping most of the time because baby don't latch good and it's hurts me but I'm working on live breastfeeding again but my milk supply is not enough with pumping I'm only having 500 ml a day it's my fourth baby and I just want a success breastfeeding journey this time need advice

Will the baby stop latching on breasts if we give expressed breastmilk via bottle?? Please help.. i am really nervous that my baby will stop breastfeeding.. 5 weeks old baby

[@NewLittleLife]

There are many things you can do to help make the transition back and forth easier. Paced bottle feeding is a great place to start. Making sure you protect your milk supply with a pump is also key when bottle feeding.

[@janelleroyer3395]

I always taught u must breastfeed and pump to get super empty during every session.

[@NewLittleLife]

People have fed babies only at the breast with no pumps since the beginning of time! A pump is a great tool when breastfeeding is ineffective or is unavailable to the baby, whether by necessity or choice. A baby is designed to establish and maintain a milk supply by itself if things are going as expected. Does that make sense? Sometimes a pump is needed, but in theory, it is not necessary.

[@mkOsBoyd]

What would you say is a good pumping schedule?

[@NewLittleLife]

It depends so much on your current milk supply, your breastmilk storage capacity, your goals, and how effectively you are emptying your breasts (via baby or pump). We help moms figure out what works best for them inside my program is you want some help work this www.newlittlelifelessons.com/pumping-for-working-moms-application

[@Jams90.]

Hi. Thank you so much for this video-I love it. Can you elaborate on what you mean by combining breastfeeding and pumping? Are you saying that Moms should either pump or breastfeed exclusively or that Moms should not pump after they breastfeed the baby (double work)? I mainly pump every 2.5 hrs but sometimes I’ll breastfeed my baby because I want to get the bonding experience and when I do breastfeed, I do not pump for that session but instead I’ll pump again in 1.5-2hrs to make sure I empty out my breasts. Then 2.5 hrs after that, I’ll pump again. Would you mind giving me your opinion on my routine? Thank you again!

[@NewLittleLife]

We see a combination of the two in so many various ways! All are great options, but for each mother/baby it looks different based on their supply, baby’s feeding skills, and their goals. If both breastfeeding and pumping are efficient and effective than your schedule seems good at first glance, but there are so many other factors that go into long term success.

[@jenniferezeh]

Can a person that is not breastfeeding also pump please no insult

[@NewLittleLife]

I’m not sure I understand the question, let me know what you mean and I’m happy to answer!
