有冇人知如只用手搓奶會唔會弄到個'咪咪' lum 晒???? 係味埋身喂就冇咁 lum???? 我都想埋身喂, 不過次次喂完都要 添奶粉, 仲攪到d時間亂晒, 因埋身喂唔知食到幾多, 所以用手渣出來可以睇到份量. ...
fionafufu,
I don't see the difference of skin to skin and hand express on the breasts. The breasts will become softened when they are empty either you directly breastfeed or pump out milk. Skin to skin is better for maintaining milkflow and convenient. How old is your baby now? It's harder to set a feeding schedule for young baby at the first few months. Usually, after the 3th month, baby's eating pattern can be pretty consistent.
Well, it's true that you can tell how much your baby drinks if you pump out milk and feed with bottle. But, it does not really matter how much he/she drinks if you can have enough milk to breastfeed the baby. The only way to produce enough milk is to skin to skin more often. At the beginning, it's hard but if you can insist on not to supplement with formula. You have the chance to be able to have sufficient milk one day. But, if you keep supplement with formula, your body would only produce the volume that you skin to skin your baby and you will have to continue supplementing with formula in the future. If your goal is to 100% breastfeed with no formula supplement, I would say that you need to start skin to skin exclusively which is the only way to tell your body how much milk you need to produce for your baby. Honestly speaking, it's very tired and hard at the beginning. You possibly cannot have much time for rest but I would consider it worthwhile if you can provide sufficient milk to the baby later.
