    Also, many people do milk baths for their kids and it's supposed to be really good for their skin! You just pour some into a normal bath and it is supposed to help (:

    Shouldn’t you weigh out your trays before and after they go in the freeze dryer so you know exactly how much water to put back in to get it to the right consistency?

    Oh this would be awesome, we are barely using up the milk from when my daughter was born in November and she doesn't care much for the bottle so it's been tough feeding it to her. I have half a freezer full of milk and i don't believe my daughter will go through it. My son has been drinking it sometimes so we will see if I can find a company to do this with.

    Ellie, when you’re pace feeding, rather than taking the whole bottle out of her mouth, just tip in down a bit so that no milk is in the teat and then you can tip it up again. That way bub doesn’t lose suction. I love that you’re bringing attention to paced feeding x

    Does it not water the nutrition down in breast milk? Only concern with her being this young and the whole crisis with watered down formula. Just a concern but I'm sure once she's older it really would matter but infants it's surely a concern it would water down all that goodness?

    Awesome video! I'm curious as to why you need to remove the nipple every few seconds when bottle-feeding a nursing baby. Is it so that the baby doesn't get used to how much faster she can receive the milk while bottle-feeding, causing her to reject the breast?

    • @ericagoehring1089
      @ericagoehring1089 Год назад

      It mimics the way breastfed babies feed. The typically go suck, suck, pause, suck, suck, pause, etc.

    • @laurarodriguez3478
      @laurarodriguez3478 Год назад +1

      It’s called pace feeding. That way the baby is in control of the flow rather than letting the milk flow freely and baby doesn’t get used to not doing much and still has to suckle :)
