All about Breastpumping part 3

[geekchiq]

sis kaice, how many times do you feed your baby at night?

[kaice]

geekchiq - direct feeding kasi kami at night. mga 2-3 times siguro pero pag naglambing at comfort feed, magkadikit kami buong gabi. side lying naman kaya no problem with me. di naman ako puyat. plus nakakatuwa kasi she know how to lift my clothes na and look for my nipples to latch 

[wengerts]

diane, nag pick up nito lang mag 5mos ang baby ko, so that was just a few weeks ago.

i pump sa office 3-4x a day, 3hrs interval. check mo rin ang diet mo kasi it also affects output. pagdating sa house direct feed kami lagi. pagka weekends i don't take supplements. lol. nakakalimutan ko palagi.

[Diane]

inggit much ako sayo sis kaice.

sis wengerts, hopefully mag peak up na din yung output ko.

[rome01]

So sad kasi 7.5 months lang exclusive bm diet si baby then di na ko makakeep up sa demands niya nagmix na kami plus humina din kasi output ko
Lately nauuwi ko lang from work na expressed milk is 7-8 oz compared sa 12 oz before

[jl20]

same ba ang amount ng milk production nyo for each breast? i dont know what happened pero humina yung sa right breast ko, ndi nman ako nagdidirect feeding. what can i do to increase it again?

[kaice]

inggit much ako sayo sis kaice.

sis, pag talagang desperate, take 2 tablets of domperidone 3 times a day for 3 days then 1 tab 3x a day for another 3 days. then frequent pumping plus less stress. lahat tayo dumadaan sa ganyang phase...

Jl20 - try breast compression muna. pero ako di talaga sama ang output ng breasts lalo na kung galing sa latch. pero mas madami talaga yung galing sa right ko compared sa left.

[wengerts]

^^ ako hindi haha! mas konti ng .5oz ang right breast. i think kasi mas madalas mag latch si baby sa left. kaya ganoon.

[Diane]

how much domperidone?

[iristacey]

sis diane, sample ng domperidone is motilium

[hoyhoy]

im using spectra 3 for 5 months na. ok naman for me though medyo mabigat sya sabi ng isang friend ko. 7.5 months na ang baby ko, wala naman akong problems so far.

His sis, san ka nakabuy ng spectra 3 and how much? thanks

[bangusnakulot]

ako din, hindi pantay yung napa-pump ko sa breasts ko. Minsan sa left is 3.5 oz tapos sa right 1.5 oz...kanina naman around 9:30 am 4 oz sa left tapos 1 oz [textspeak!] sa right...siguro kasi nag direct feeding ako kanina 6am sa right breast ko.

is it normal? para kasing nag laki ng difference ng left and right.

[theathoinkxzs]

ako din hindi pantay boobies ko. mas malaki at mas madaming milk sa right kesa sa left, mas fave ni baby boy yung left kaya mas maliit yun dahil mas madalas dun sya nadede.


may gumagamit ba dito ng avent manual? naiirita na ako dun sa star. nagpapop sya, meaning natatanggal sya dun sa lalagyan nya tapos dun sa butas, tinatanggal ko pa tuloy yung dome cap at diaphragm tapos pump ulit.

[cassiopeia]

sino may breastpump na evenflo electricpump ? ok ba gamitin? meron kasi 2ndhand lang para lang baka mapalakas ko yng supply ko if electric kesa manual pump.

[mishyewarians]

Me, i love my pigeon batt operated breast pump.. it was a gift from hubby 6 years ago and i was able to use it pa sa youngest ko.. Now my youngest is turning 2 na, i still bf, but i dont use the breast pump anymore because nag decrease na the milk supply ko..

My cousins are teasing me ipamana ko na lang daw the breast pump.. Super AYAW! May sentimental value kasi sya.. Super sulit ko sya nagamit..

[new_iza]

Wow!! super nasulit yung pump mo sis!!
How often do you pump and change the battery?
im planning to buy an electric pump kasi..
madalas kasi ako nakakatulog habang nagpupump.. siguro dala na rin ng pagod at puyat tapos manual pa yung pump ko..

[princess_angel]

sis cassiopeia, are you reffering to the simplygo na evenflo breastpump? kung yes, i have one. but sad to say in my experience hindi sya maganda pampalakas ng supply. in fairness naman sa kanila, sabi naman nila na pang occassional pumping lang naman yun, at most 2 times per day lang sya dapat ginagamit. sabi ko nga kay hubby dapat talaga nagmedala electric pump na lang ako, nanghihinayang tuloy ako sa pinambili ko dun sa evenflo. pero i still use it, pangstimulate lang ng letdown. gamit ko sya sa left boob ko then yung sa right yung medela manual pump ko. tas pag wala na lumalabas dun sa electric, pag nimanual ko, madami pa lumalabas.

Depende sis the batt life, if malakas ang milk mo and 8hrs work ka, mga 2-3x mo lang sya magagamit a day.. I use energizer batt, mga 2-3 weeks batt life nya, but it really depends.. I used manual before, super lakas my milk and nakakangawit na sa right side pa lang napa pump ko..kaya laging hindi pantay my breasts kasi nga pagdating sa kabilang side, pagod na hands ko, i remember pa nga, c hubby na nag pa pump non kasi sakit na ng hands ko..

The pigeon batt operated kasi press lang the button then release, ganon lang.. I think nasa 2k sya before.. Cheaper compared sa other expensive brands..

[Cocoyow]

^sis when mo na check yung pigeon na 2k? Kasi na canvass ko yung oigeon na electric, 7k sya..

[mishyewarians]

Electric is more expensive than the batt operated sis.. Mas madaming hassles sa electric nung nakita ko sya.. Batt op is handy.. Cant remember, but  my hubby's cousin bought one last year, its 2k..
