PLS HELP A FTM WITH TWINS
hello mamas in the house,
I just had my babies (beautiful girls) two weeks ago but I have inadequate flow of breast milk.
they are on formula currently. I need suggestions on how to aid the flow of breast milk pls.
I am so worried about their health and growth cos the formula makes it difficult for them to poo even after warm water is given to them.
P.S . I eat healthy and on multivitamins as well.

zionx:
Thanks so much Mamas... Your word goes a long way in making me feel better. This cross is heavy but I pray the Holy Spirit help me to carry it and comfort me. I will stay strong for his son. I pray that may the peace of God reign in our country so that his death will not be in vain. Continue to rest in peace, my dearest husband... I will always miss you. I know when your son hears this story, he will be proud to say his dad laid his life for the peace of this country. Even though you lived a short life, you touched the life of so many people. The time we spent together was so short but it was as if we have spent eternity together. You were a loving and caring husband and father.

Good evening mamas in the house, officially registering myself. May mama that ported to April. Baby boy is now 3months. Abeg mamas is anything called over weight in babies cause my lo now weighs 8.2kg at 3months. He is on formula and breast milk.

AlphaHandMaiden:


8.2kg at 3 months?.

I think that is over weight oh! That is a typical naija 6 month old who is in the big side sef.....more muscle to your biceps!

What was his birth weight first of all?
How often does he feed and how much do you feed him?

GodMercy2015:


His birthweight was 4.2kg and he takes 120mls formula 6 times in 24hrs and breast milk as it comes. Myself and hubby are on the bigside as well. Do I reduce his number of feeds per day?

shiller:
Sabi mamas in d hse,una weldone ooo...please can I gv my 10months+ DS banana custard?

AlphaHandMaiden:



Having the potential to be on the big side does not mean it is should be the expected normal or acceptable to be overweight.

It appears you might be overfeeding him as the formular you are giving him is already close to what an entirely formular fed baby would be taking. And then it also appears you are also breast feeding him on demand.

I know all babies are different and what works for one may not work for others but babies adjust to routine fairly well, even a pretty flexible one.
At that age, even though they say breastfeed on demand, please i am not a cow and i too need some form of structure to my day and not be perpertually plugged to a sucking baby so on a typical day i fed my lo by a timed schedule... 3-4 hour breast feeding intervals.. if she was cranky inbetween i would do all the other checks: nappy change? too hot?, too cold?, burp?, wind?, change position?, play?, rock to sleep?....if none of these work before i offer breast.


In my own opinion, each feed time has to be one or the other. Formular should be used to supplement breast feeding if you are using the 2 methods of feeding. Others may disagree.

Even if you feed him every 3 hours on the average that is about 8 feeds per typical day at most.
If he has 6 formular feeds then the breast feeding should be about 2 or 3 times only.

Personally i would say reduce his feeds to a specific number.... plus or minus 1 or 2 times as there will be days he will eat more than others.
Perhaps you can also halve the number of formula feeds to no more than 3 times a day. Formula is heavier so you may want to leave one of his formular feeds for just before he goes to bed.

Start by reducing it gradually over a week. Dropping a feed every 2 days till you get to your desired number. As the guy fit bite your nipple comot if you suddenly slash it all in one day!

ginababy:
