What’s the best way to dry breastmilk up?

  • Posted on July 28, 2010 at 7:24 am

Look, here’s the thing. I went out over the weekend and drank too much and ended up hitting a joint a couple of times. Now, I don’t want to nurse my daughter whose five months because I know the THC transfers over. I was starting to slow up as is but now it looks like I screwed up and there’s no other choice but to stop.

And Look, don’t give me some friggin lecture about how i’m a bad mother or how stupid I was for smoking weed. You’re preachin to the choir. Just let me know how to do it.

How many ounces of breastmilk should my 8 day old daughter be drinking?

  • Posted on January 14, 2010 at 4:11 am

I’m a first time mom, and currently pumping my breastmilk because of some latching problems, but I’m curious how many ounces I should be pumping right now, and also how many ounces per feeding my baby should be eating? She seems to be eating about 1 1/2oz- 2oz per feeding, and I’m only pumping 2oz (1oz per breast) at the moment. Is this normal? Should she be eating more, and should I be pumping more? once again she’s 8 days old!
She’s eating every 2-3 hours?

how can I keep breastmilk flowing when I have to pump and dump?

  • Posted on January 3, 2010 at 4:06 pm

I have gallstones and pancreatitis and because of the medicine I am on and because I’m in the hospital (wireless net here thankfully), I cannot breastfeed my daughter. I have been pumping but it seems like everytime I get less and less milk. They have me on a clear liquid diet and I can’t drink mothers milk tea. What else can I do to ensure my milk wont completely dry up by the time I am off the medication?! I really want to be able to make sure my daughter is getting breastmilk again.
I’m not sure what the name of the medication they have me on is called but I was told the pain killer has been linked with sids so that is the main reason I am pumping and dumping and giving her formula.
I know I am on an antibiotic the bag says Zosyn.

I’ll ask the nurse or dr. next time they come in about the fenugreek stuff, if it’s a pill I doubt I’ll be able to take it because like I said I’m on an all liquids diet and I’ll be in the hospital til Saturday so I wouldn’t even be able to go out and look for it.
