All about Breastpumping part 3

^wala namang major na mangyayari, you have to have it consumed lang kasi sa earliest date/ time so better kung yung na pump the next day eh later time na.

[bangusnakulot]

^sis better kung ice pack yung parang may gel inside kasi hindi messy. im using antibacterial ice packs. 2 everyday. it lasts up to 12 hours.

hi sis! where did you purchase it? meron ba nito sa mall? i saw one sa babymama.

[iristacey]

^bought mine from babymama too.

[theathoinkxzs]

ako din! super nice si miann. may time na nadelay yung package ko pinalitan nya agad tapos nung dumating na hindi na nya pinabyaran sa akin. saka sumasagot sya sa mga tanong about breast pumping and milk storage. pati na din feeding

Any reviews on Avent manual pump? Direct feeding ako sa 5 month old daughter ko but im planning to store bm too for errands/malling. Tia!

[rjaye_2000]

since im planning to bf din after i give birth my sister in law will lend me one of her breast pumps. bibilhin ko na lang ng valve and sa baby mama din ako bibili. will try to order siguro this week. 

[bibits]

Im thinking of buying a pump from babymama too. Sa ngayon im leaning towards getting the manual unimom pump since im a sahm and gusto ko itry mag direct feed most of the time para tipid linis/sterilize ng bottles.

[betsyness]

i pump at most 4oz with my manual pump. Siguro minsan tinatamad lang ako kaya di ko nasasaid. But i hope my supply increases lalo na pagbalik ko sa work next month. Mas guso talaga ni baby ang direrct feeding. i'm drinking malunggay tea now and having oatmeal madalas na din. I haven't tried other supplements yet.

[bangusnakulot]

mga sis, gano kadami ang nacocollect nyong BM pag nagpupump kayo?

[iristacey]

^pumping output is 2-3oz per breast. but note that normal lang din yung 1oz/breast.

[cldy_1981]

^^ sis personally I usually get an average of 3oz on my left boob (which is favorit ng baby ko na side, hehe) and 2 oz on my right boob.

Pag medyo malakas 4-5oz on the left and 3 oz on the right pero super lakas na yun as in siguro naka-lagpas na ang 5 or 6 hours na di ako naka-pagpump. Pero tama si iristacey normal din yung mga 1oz sometimes.

[bangusnakulot]

thanks mga sis. Is that for regular pumping? I mean every 3 hrs interval?

Nagstart pa lang kasi ako magpump in preparation sa pagbalik ko to work. In 15 days kasi back to work na ko and I need to train my baby to bottle feed. Sa mga working moms dito, how much nacocollect nyo per day?

[iristacey]

as much as possible sis every 2-3hrs. basta don't go beyond 4hrs without pumping. if need talagang maging beyond 4hrs, make sure you empty your breast. para you make sure na may ma-sustain ang supply mo. i collect around 18oz or more per day. if super busy and get to pump only 3x instead of 4x, i collect 16oz. pero paguwe ko, medyo full pa din ako so i still collect some.

[bangusnakulot]

^ how long have you been breastpumping?

[iristacey]

^been pumping for 4months++ na. returned to work when ml finished by 2months. dont be disheartened with lower output. tsaga lang. baby is ebf with complementary solid food just 10days ago. ebf for 6months. i suggest you invest in a good pump, it will be your friend. kaya mo yan!

thanks sis! actually, i recently purchased an electric breastpump na.
how will i know kung how much ang ipapainom kay baby every feeding?

[Grayce]

^do take note also that breast pumps are hiyangan rin and your breast needs to get used to it rin. when i was still pumping, my initial output is approx 3oz per breast then eventually increased to 4-6oz and it depends on the time rin that i pump.

re: feeding, try to start with 2oz muna to see how much your baby can drink.
