Pumping at night sometime between 12 am to 6am! I never knew that, im gonna try it. Right now i am pumping every 2 to 3 hours and my supply is VERY slowly increasing maybe if i add 1 session at night it will truly increase. I dont BF anymore, and do 90% formula and im ok with that, i just need more milk for my bby bc she likes breastmilk better than formula.
I am relactating!!! I'm excited!! I stopped breastfeeding due to low supply. I got discouraged and stopped all together. I believe my supply got shorter due to lack of nutrition! My baby was a jaundice baby and was introduced to the bottle first instead of my nipple because she wouldn't latch due to her being too tired. But thanks for the tip about watching something happy and thank you for giving the proper time frame to pump!❤
Thank you for the video. I’m currently struggling and I have a one month old preemie. The formula shortage in the market is making me desperate and I couldn’t stop crying sometimes
Hey Veronica! i stopped breastfeeding for 20 days due to stress but i feel so guilty and want to go back again. i'm so glad i came across your video. my question is, how long of a break did you take and how long did it take for you to get your supply back? i'm really nervous that i screwed up and won't be able to breastfeed.
Hi there! So glad you found my video helpful! Breastfeeding indeed can be extremely stressful... Personally, I never stopped breastfeeding, just didn't do it sufficiently and ended up with a very low milk supply but it never dried up completely... After I started pumping ~9 times/day, I was able to rebuild by supply within 3 weeks. However, I heard women manage to re-lactate even after a month after stopping bf... I think as long as you are able to get at least a drop of milk, you should be able to rebuild your supply. Honestly, no matter what, try not to feel guilty, you are doing your absolute best for your child! Really, you do! Some babies have milk, some have formula and that's alright. I was a formula fed baby myself and I am just fine ;) Just do what makes you and your little one happy, nothing can be more important!
Hi Veronica I am currently trying to relactate I exclusively breastfed for 3 months and my supply slowly started to decrease I'm assuming due to stress and not eating/drinking enough. My son is now 5 months. I stoped for 2 months. I found myself staring at my baby instead of taking care of myself as well!! Loved your video it is very helpful and just what I needed to hear. Im looking forward to your next video about pumping!!
Thanks Paige! Im so glad you liked my video! :) Best of luck on your re-lactation journey, and good job on 3 months of exclusive BF!! I am actually a registered dietitian (in real life haha) and I can tell you, 3 months of BF already gave your baby an amazing amount of nutrients and life-long benefits! XOXO -V
Thank u for your video... It's very informative unlike any other video. Inspires me a lot. Now I'm gonna start my relactation journey after 2 months I've stopped.
@@northboundwithwarmth7990 I'm struggling now because I have a lot of thing to do...no time to pump and I don't have a better breast pump.what should I do
choy oliquiano I can imagine your frustration, i was in the same predicament... unfortunately the only way to re-establish a milk supply is through direct stimulation - pump and/or baby. If you have very little time maybe do just as much as you can, even a 5 minute pump session is better than none! Try to get your baby to feed, that is even more effective than any pumps out there! Hope this helps! Sorry, when it comes to breastfeeding there are really no simple answers 😔
@@KaminaUzui I have had an increase of a tiny tiny tiny amount (less than a teaspoon) and I am on the fence if I should continue or not since it is so stressful and taking so much time away from other things
Thanks for the helpful video. Im relactating my 4 month old.I stopped for about 1.5 months.What would you suggest I do it he won't take the breast?Im leaning towards the supplemental system or getting a nipple shield.
Its hard for me to make suggestions, as I am not a specialist. Reaching out to a lactation consultant will be most useful. Thats what I did and the advices I got were extremely helpful. Good luck! ❤️
Sorry to hear that! Don't feel bad if you use formula, I remember I felt lots of guilt and I wish now I didn't. Milk isn't end all and be all... at the end of the day proper nutrition and love is what matters
I think that's more of a personal preference. I heard manual is more labour intensive, never owned one for that reason. I used an electric one and found it very helpful
careful about pumping too much in the first 2-4 weeks because yes some extra is good but if you create too much of a deand you could end up with a huge oversupply which can lead to clogs and mastitis. it is easiest to adjust your supply in the first 12-16 weeks.
You are absolutely right! I think that is why is most important to get professional help when it comes to breastfeeding issued. In my case, I was never even close to getting too much. I was always just extra 20 oz and not a drop more
@@northboundwithwarmth7990 wow 20 oz! thats amazing at my most i was consitantly 15 oz extra until about 5.5-6 months now at 7 months i get 5 oz a day extra ugh! with my first though i was a just enougher the whole time so any extra to me is awesome i will take it!
Hi there, so sorry to hear about tour troubles! I would of loved to help but I am not a certified lactation consultant.. You should seek help from a professional in that area. My video is simply my journey on re-lactation 🧡
Hi there, thanks for watching! Moringa is thought to promote breastmilk production, my lactation consultant suggested I try it. I am not sure it made much difference or not. When it comes to nutritional supplements, it can always be a placebo effect... But I liked the taste and so drank it in my tea. I believe any hot drink helps milk release since it relaxes you... Above all, supply-demand is the biggest factor in breastfeeding
About a month or so. Sorry can't remember well anymore but I never fully stopped breastfeeding just had it mixed with the bottle 1:4 ratio probably.. So by 2 months he was fully breastfed again
I’m 23 days postpartum. Since the beginning I had problems with my baby wanting the breast and latching, it was so painful so I just stopped but my mistake was I didn’t have a pump so I didn’t breastfeed for weeks nor pumped. Now I bought one and started pumping a few days ago but I barely make drops each time. Any recommendations? I want to be able to feed my baby with exclusive pumping and have a stash
If you are getting any amount of milk at all, even drops, in my understanding there’s still a chance you could get your milk back. It’s very hard and time consuming at this point in time tho. The only thing I would do is keep at it - pumping every 1-2 hours and during the night. A lactation consultant might give you even more tips or prescribe milk inducing medication... best of luck!! ❤️
Branching Balance thank you! I’ve been doing that for a couple days with power pumping a couple times the day and already saw an increase, I’m leaking a little bit already! But just one more question, how long did it take for you to start seeing a good amount in each session?
Keila Alvizures that’s wonderful! Very happy for you! It took me about 3 weeks to get the amount I needed to exclusively breastfeed. Most effective was when I was pumping at night 12-6am window and was keeping a positive mindset while pumping, thinking of my baby etc... that what seemed to give a strong boost to my milk production

This is exactly why I can't breastfeed my baby. She never latched and so I am exclusively pumping.
Yes, that's what I ended up doing. It was a lot of work but I was glad I was still able to give my baby milk 💗
