I watched this video 2 years ago while struggling to nurse my first baby. Well I successfully nursed him for 15 months and now I'm 3 months in nursing my second baby!!
OMG! That makes me soooo happy for you! Congrats mama!!!!
You feeded directly or used brest pump
I’m trying not successful and giving up! Feeding my baby with my breast shouldn’t be this difficult I really wanted to breast feed 😢
I’m pregnant with my third baby. I came across your video scrolling through my RUclips. It’s very helpful. Thank you.
The tone of your voice is amazing! I can listen to you for hours! New subscriber from London. Very professional, keep up the great work!!!
Aww, thank you so much! That’s so kind of you to say. Welcome to the fam!🤗💛
Milk producing is amazing. One has to up keep the eating to a degree and be consistent with whatever is being used.
How am I supposed to get enough sleep when my newborn won’t sleep at night?! 😩😩😩
Hi Marissa! Sleep is the hardest part of adjusting to a newborn. Sometimes babies get their night and day reversed. As they get older things will normalize. You can help baby by creating a routine for feeding and sleeping, which teaches baby when to sleep and when to wake. 💛
I am at this point now, I can’t sleep because I am taking care baby 😭

You're awesome for this. Thank you. Sending so much love.
Really well done video. Thanks!
Subscribed!! I like how your video is informative yet simple! Thank you
Thank you so much Fiona! Welcome to the fam 😁💛
I had a c-section and I knew what I was doing but because my clinic was so far away and I didn’t have the support I needed and I was exhausted my milk supply went away. I finally gave into the exhaustion and formula fed. But this is great info. I wish I had the support I needed.
I’m sorry you didn’t have the support you needed Brooke. How’s your little doing now?
@@KarmaKennedy awe thank you! She’s doing great! I hope your little one is doing well.
Hi! Did u EFF your baby? How is your baby now? I have the same issue!! Low milk supply
@@pooja904 she’s doing great! The Similac 360 pro is a great formula. Not 100% breast feeding is okay. You’re not going to mess up your baby by formula feeding!
Hey did you know it’s possible to relactate?! I’m currently in the process of trying to do the same & I’m 4 mo postpartum. I successfully did it prior with my other child after 8 months accidentally lol.
I didn't think about pumping straight after breastfeeding directly. Thanks so much! This was straight to the point
So glad I could help!
I'm subscribing too!!! Straight to the point. Not a lot of blah blah and very informative. 👌🏾
Thanks Jayka! That’s a HUGE compliment 😁💛

Thanks for the helpful information provided
When my baby was in the NICU for 27 days I learned all these tricks as well. The one with the feeding tube works!!!
Thanks Tiffany!
@@KarmaKennedy no problem 😊
How do you use the feeding tube trick. ?
I have watched SO MANY videos on increasing supply and I’m talking about 3 minimum per day for 5 weeks straight and THIS one is clear cut, simple and straightforward, making this seem more attainable. It’s easy to pay attention to. I appreciate you so much
You’re definitely right. I’ve talked to lactation consultant from the hospital and the nurse that comes to our house from the health unit but this video just answered some questions that those other consultants can’t.
Try power pumping also 😆
@@indaygarit2221 yeah that was 8 total lactation consultants for me. Thank goodness for RUclips

Thankyou. This video helped a new born mum so much ❤
That makes me so very happy. So glad I could help.
Love this! Thank you!
I wish someone would have told me about the feeding tube.. I would have never had to pause breastfeeding full time. I'm heartbroken about it but I got an electric pump to help.. I went from dripping to not even feeling a let down. It's very emotional for me rn.. because at first I had an abundance and my baby use to fall asleep feeding then it went to frustration while feeding then I gave her formula to supplement so she could be getting enough.. then frustration when offered the breast. She may latch for comfort maybe every other day.. but when she's hungry she wants the bottle. now I don't know if I will catch up to my baby's needs because I have to go back to work. I'm sad about that fr. In the past week I may have produced 5-8 Oz for my girl. She's had more formula this past month than when I first brought her home. I miss the bonding experience of nursing. I really do..
This is happening to me 😭
Don't get into the guilt trip, it is fine. Please accept it and concentrate on your health too. As long as baby growth is good and active, it should be fine. While we over think about this, we might actually miss the joy of other things with our little one. 😊 I am also having low milk supply
@@shreedivya4763 I really appreciate this comment. she is a very healthy 10 month baby, she is expressive, she laughs, she literally runs after me. I'm changing my perspective now and cherishing every moment. ty
@@BBGshop7I'm glad you're better, I have had a similar situation. I always pumped but I miss nursing fr, very emotional and no one who hasn't gone through it seems to understand...Malta helped my supply alot. Also, you can always relactate if you desire but it takes a lot of effort and patience.
The feeding tube idea? Omg genius
Good information!
Great video! Thanks ❤️
Thank you so much 😊 💛
Thank yu!!! I definitely stop taking my prenatals BIG MISTAKE and I don't demand enough milk from my body I definitely need to start doing that.
You’re so welcome! I know what you mean, after giving birth you wouldn’t think there’s any reason to keep taking those prenatal vitamins but every little bit counts. Supply and demand is EVERYTHING! Congrats on your new baby! 🥳😁💛
Thank you! Your video is very informative and straight to the point. I'm DBF my 18 days newborn baby and thinking to increase my milk supply. So I'm gonna try this consistently and will share if result is starting to show.

Hello what’s the recipe for your smoothie lactation? I’m trying to get my supply back
Hi Sarah! I love using vanilla flavoured Greek yogurt with spinach, berries, and soaked chia seeds (soak a tbsp of chia seeds in a half cup of milk over night). Let me know how you like it! 😁💛
I struggled with feeding because the nurses didn’t give me any information about how to feed with a flat and inverted nipple.They used the basic knowledge on me ,pinched(and tore my nipples to the point I bleed)expecting my body to react the same as someone with normal nipples.I had to work on pulling my nipples out,forcing my baby to nurse,and then work on my supply too(since the poor latching decreased my amount).Power pumping is what did it for me!Increased my supply to the point I don’t need formula anymore and baby gets full(still need to work on producing enough to create a stash).Also the whole calories thing?I’d call it bs,I gained 2kg the first week of pp yet my milk supply was still very low BUT eating a protein and vegetables/fruit rich diet helps the quality of your milk(makes it fatter therefore keeping baby full longer).So try to sleep,nurse baby as much as possible,power pump at least 1h a day and eat healthy!
Hi very informative video..my baby is not latching well..but my nurse said to put him often ..I tried but ended up in failure..so can I pump often to increase my supply
I’m so happy you had the help of a nurse. Is there a lactation consultant or breastfeeding clinic near you where you can get one on one help? Pumping often can definitely help! Thank you so much for the awesome feedback.
Hello my baby is 6 weeks old & due to clogging /pain issues l decided to exclusively pump planning on nursing once those issues got resolved . I’m better now but we’ve started formula (mixing with breastmilk in the beginning) and I’ve been sick twice since I’ve been home from the hospital😞 I’ve been pumping when consistent every 2-3 hrs yielding maybe 2 oz total each time . can l still build my supply & possibly start breastfeeding even though l haven’t had a let down in 2 weeks ? Help!!!
Absolutely Kaila! You can definitely start lactating again, but you’ll need to be consistent with deep latching baby and nursing as often as possible. Try the feeding tube technique with formula so baby still gets what they need, and try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements to jump start your milk. Remember to keep taking your prenatal vitamins as well. This will also be a big help to start breastfeeding without any pain ruclips.net/video/vDLV4mHPZjc/видео.html 💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou for you speedy response 😊 I’ve purchased fenugreek pills, mothers milk tea & 3 bags of blessed thistle loose leaf tea that l have looked high and low on google and RUclips for a recipe to no avail 😔 any recommendations for how to prepare blessed thistle loose leaf tea ?
@@gloriouspurposee that’s awesome! I’ve never tried blessed thistle loose leaf tea, but like most other loose leaf teas you can use a tea holder to make one cup at a time or if you steep a large batch you can turn it into iced tea and keep it in your fridge so you can drink it as often as you want. You could try adding lemon / lime and honey to add some flavour once your tea has been chilled. 😁💛
@@KarmaKennedy ThankYou! I have a tea strainer but chile the tea is BITTER 😣 l tried honey, lemon & sugar in the last batch and could barely stomach it perhaps adding milk will do the trick💡 any idea how many cups a day l should be drinking ?
😂🤣 I know what you mean, that’s why I prefer the capsules. Try to sweeten with Stevia, as much as you can stand. The sweet will cut the bitter taste. How much lemon did you add? I would start slow with any new herbal remedy. Start with one cup a day for a few days and then add another cup per day. Increase it slowly until you start to see results. You don’t want to overdo it though so maybe no more than two cups a day. It also depends on how concentrated you make the tea. 🤗💛
Help my 3 week old will not latch at all I’m pumping every 3 hrs 1 ounce only.
I'm only able to pump 3 oz per hour 😔... I'll try your tips and hopefully works!
Hi Jocelyn! I totally know what you mean. Are you exclusively pumping or are you breastfeeding as well? I think this will help ruclips.net/video/hCpTxxn5I1E/видео.html 🤗💛
If I am unable to pump right after feeding baby is there a cut off for when I should pump? Sometimes pumping after feeds leaves me completely empty for him when he’s ready.
Good question. Relatable
Fantastic question! Does baby cluster feed? Several times in a short period? During a growth spurt?
Pumping after a feed teaches your body to create more milk, and you can use the milk you pump for your baby’s next feeding while your body catches up to the increased demand. Your body will respond quickly, since baby naturally cluster feeds as they grow. Good luck!🤗💛
I stared re-lactate and I follow your advice when I saw a dot of milk I was so happy but I didn’t pump for a week cuz I got sick and I been pumping and doing everything for 3 days and see nothing . I am so sad
Don’t give momma! I know how frustrating that can be. Try hand expressing to get going again. I have a video to show you how
ruclips.net/video/3i988jFZYhE/видео.html
Please come back and tell me how things are going! 🤗
@@KarmaKennedy hello so today I did hand expressing twice and my right boob dots of breast milk came out . Then I stared pumping but nothing came out . Do you might know why is that ?
I have a 2 months old, i was supplementing with formular which my baby is rejecting now, my milk supply is good rn but i want to increase it so i can pump enough for when i get back to work. Thanks
Wow ...My baby is 5 days old ..I have hard the worst experience but your video made it simple ..Thanks
Awww, congrats! So glad I could help mama! 😊💛
If breastmilk suddenly reduced can it be increase after 3 months??
What is the use of the feeding tube ? I didn’t understand? Is it to keep baby used to breastfeeding?
Feeding the baby formula whilst stimulating the breasts to produce milk as well
How your milk is white white? Mine is always creamy color
Hey mom please please please reply me for what you eat and not eat for increase breast milk.. I gave birth last month my breast milk is not enough for my baby …
I needed this video, because I had a newborn (16 days) and my milk supply is starting to be less than in the begging, because my baby needs more now. I’m going to try pumping.
Which of her tips worked for you?
Pumping and eating more. Also taking Pregnacare Breastfeeding multivitamin helped too.
FTM here my son is 3 weeks and 4 day I'm not producing enough milk from him so I'm desperate to get my milk to flow more ... I try lactation cookies, lactation candy , lactation bar, body armor drink, blue Gatorade, hand massage .... Now I'm trying milk booster massager, Fenugreek & blessed thistle, greater than drink, lactation cookies, lactation tea, and fruits with water.... i just hope my milk supply show some increase soon even though my son gain 3lbs since birth i feel bad he getting formula and he get 2 oz breast milk from me an day
Congratulations momma! The best way to get more milk is to empty your breasts as often as possible. You probably have way more milk than you think. Are you breastfeeding or exclusively pumping? I think this might help. ruclips.net/video/TJLNaxM9cOQ/видео.html 🤗💛
@@KarmaKennedy thanks you I'm pumping he not latching on ... I know you got pump about 8 time an day i probably pump about 4 times an day but i will try empty out my breasts as much i can
Thanks for the video i very appreciated it
@@ParisW2009 you’re very welcome! You’ve got this momma!🤗💛
So get sleep but also wake up in the middle of the night to pump 👍🏾oh motherhood
Loved the video but i couldn t watch it with sound near my newborn with those loud sounds
I breast fed my baby until he was 11 months and then stopped for (few days which is now )and now I regret stopping and want to go back to nursing .. don’t know what to do
Hi Noriah! It’s definitely possible to jumpstart your milk production after you stop breastfeeding. It may not happen overnight but it is definitely worth the effort. Try the fenugreek and blessed thistle supplements along with pumping and the other tips. It may take some time but don’t give up! 🤗💛
I'm 10 days post partum and desperate because my milk supply is low 💔
I know the feeling Ashlyn! It happened with both my babies. Get the fenugreek pills and try the feeding tube method, you’ll have milk in NO time. Hope this can help ruclips.net/video/TJLNaxM9cOQ/видео.html 🤗💛
I didn't get "the one hour" part...?
How can I use that tube thing if my baby doesn’t want my breast I have tried everything to put him on my Breast but ended up with formula and I hardly get time for pumping cuz whenever I pump I get only 40 or 60 ml.
I know it can be hard to juggle all these things when you’re exhausted and looking after a new baby. If baby doesn’t want to latch you can try encouraging him with taste. Maybe hand express some milk into baby’s mouth to motivate them to want to latch. You’ll need to try hand expressing several times a day to encourage baby to the breast. I have a video on hand expressing if you need any more help. 💛
Oh man currently trying to increase my supply for my ebf 4 month old twin boys. They eat a ton. They nurse frequently and for a long time. I started power pumping once at night and once in the morning between regular feeds. I’ve been doing this for a few days. I also let them nurse every 2 hours instead of every 3. I feel like my supply has increased some but I’m not sure it’s enough. After feeding them both I will pump right after and make about 8oz combined during my pump session. So with pumping twice, that’s 16 extra oz a day on top of nursing every 2 hours. It feels impossible to keep up. This morning my twins stayed asleep about an hour longer than normal and I took the opportunity to pump and then take a shower right after. Well once the twins woke up, I was still pretty empty because I had just finished power pumping about 15 min earlier. Well long story short, one of them would not stay latched because he was super hungry (understandable) so I went ahead and gave him the fresh milk I just pumped. He drank 8 or 9oz. I was so shocked. How am I to keep up with this kind of appetite? Is it possible to make 8 oz for each breast every 2 hours? I usually only do a bottle after a full feed. So it was something new to see how much he drank on an empty stomach.
Why feed with a feeding tube?? What's happens with the body? Since the feedingtube is being fed with formula? I don't understand
Great question! This tip is for moms whose milk may not have come in yet, or are In the beginning of their breast feeding journey.
This technique is the best of both worlds! While baby is nursing they get whatever golden goodness mom has to offer and at the same time they suck in formula through the feeding tube so they feel full and nourished.
The reason for the feeding tube is to give baby enough food while still creating a demand for the body to produce milk. The more baby nurses the harder the body works to make more. If baby is bottle fed, it’s a missed opportunity to create more demand.
I hope this helps!😁💛
My baby is now 4 months old. It’s been a struggle for me to produce enough milk so I have been feeding him formula ☹️ Hopefully it’s not too late and I can try some of your tips.
@@Caram3l_Bombsh3ll hello.. Were you able to successfully breastfeed after this
@@suganyapanneerselvam6616 Unfortunately no. But there were other factors that contributed to the lack of production for me.
@@Caram3l_Bombsh3llhey! I had the same low supply issue! I formula feed my baby. Hope your baby is doing great!!
What is the brand of feeding tube thats your using?
Can you please direct me to where you got this feeding tube??? Thank you!!!
Can you show a good latch especially for busty women? I gave birth a week ago and I only get drops when hand express. I been putting baby on breast but it’s not enough so I have been giving formula but I still put her on my breasts.could you please tell me any other suggestions?
Thank you for this,I need to start eating oats,I really don't like it, but anything for my baby
I know the feeling! Oats are not my favourite but overnight oats are pretty good! 😁
@@KarmaKennedy I just had oats for the first time in my life,it wasn't that bad 😒
Haha! 😂 That’s awesome! How did you prepare them?🤔
Ive been killing myself to pump every two hours for weeks! Still making no more than 2oz per session, and that’s a good session. Sometimes I’ll make as little as 1Oz or less 😞
I’m power pumping, drinking water, breast milk supplements, eating spinach, fennel seeds tea all day, nothing works 😔
Any update? Keep trying!
I feel bad for you
I am losing my milk supply. Almost drying out. I’m devastated. I really want to keep nursing him. I breastfed my daughter for almost a year, but with my son now he is almost 6 month old and I am getting depressed because of it. I have had to buy the Bobbie formula to supplement to try to pump in between but I get 1 oz I need help!!
I’m sorry you’re struggling with your supply, I know that feeling and it’s awful. Try the fenugreek tablets and feeding tube method. Does baby still latch or has he started to show a lack of interest? How long have you been pumping?
Hand expressing works just fine. You don’t need to pump for an hour straight. Just try short 10 min hand expressing or manual pumping throughout your day. After each feed is best. It’s not about how much comes out, you just want to empty your breast so your body triggers more milk production. The feeding tube method will help your son want to nurse. You can get a free feeding tube at a breastfeeding clinic. Are there any in your area?
I’m so ready to give up on this. I’ve accomplished much, but I can’t do this one.
Don’t give up love. Keep trying
Please don't give up hope. I know it's hard and sometimes feels impossible, but you CAN do this.
So no skin to skin, just pump immediately after? Is that what you do?
Skin to skin is absolutely a great technique! I used it all the time. The body knows what it needs to do and bonding always helps the body produce more.
Hi mama..my baby is about to be 3 months old..Will these techniques boost milk supply in few days.?
Congrats on the new baby! Absolutely! These tips will work, no matter where you are in your breast feeding journey! Good luck! 😁💛
I am a new mom i just had my baby on july 4 today i was trying to pump for first time to see how much milk i am making because i feel like my baby is not getting enough milk i breastfeed . I pump today and it bearly coming out to 1 :/ i am worried now
Hi Rocio! Congrats on your new baby! I totally understand your worry.
First things first, count how many soiled diapers your baby is making over a 24 hour period. At this age, it should be at least 5-6 diapers (pee and poop combined). If baby is gaining weight, seems happy and energetic, and is soiling enough diapers, your milk supply is just fine.
Breast pumps are good at removing milk from the breast but babies are EXPERTS. The pump removes only a fraction of what baby is capable of so please don’t worry about how much comes out. As your body gets used to pumping, you’ll see more milk over time. Don’t give up!
The other thing to check is baby’s latch. Is baby latching on just the nipple or does baby have a good mouthful of boob?
Hope this helps! 💛
Do overnight oatmeal work?
Absolutely!
I am an Indian new mother to a 2month old.due to some heath issues i couldn't feed my baby for a month n now he refuses to breastfeed n my breast milk is dried up.am producing only droplets.can u help me/guide me to relactate?
Absolutely! I have a video on how to relax Tate after drying up!
Thaaank you for these golden steps, i had CS and my baby is just 3 months and I feel that my milk is just decreased too much 💔 and I started to give formula many times during the day.. dear, my question is, how many minutes i have to pump aftee feeding my baby? And do I have to pump even if my baby sleeping?
I think you should pump when baby is sleeping
Great question! It’s not about how LONG you pump, it’s more about how OFTEN you pump. You want to trick your body into thinking baby is cluster feeding and going through a growth spurt. Pump until your let down starts, when that happens you can stop after 2-3 minutes if you like, or you can go until you feel like no more milk is coming out.
The more formula you give the less baby is drinking from you. This is partially why you may feel your milk is low. Try the feeding tube method with your formula and see if that helps. Good Luck Bassma!
Same problem I have with my new born
My baby boy is only 23 days.. no milk in my brest . Am very disappointed ..
My baby don’t like the tube he doesn’t really suck it right
Where did you get the feeding tube I can’t find it online 😩
I know what you mean! I’ve struggled to find them online as well. Mine was provided by the hospital right after my babies were born. If you have a nursing or breastfeeding clinic near you or in the hospital, you could definitely request one. Hope that helps!💛
@@KarmaKennedy do you clean the same one and reuse it ?
@@tikab7051 you can get a few uses out of it if you take care of it with running water to clean it and then let it air dry. I would change it out every 4 or 5 uses though.😁
Hey Tika! Found these if you're still looking. amzn.to/3mLc6Py
I’m 3 days postpartum and was breastfeeding my baby. I would nurse for hours and he would still be hungry afterwards. I started supplementing and decided to pump to see how much I was making. I’m only pumping 1oz of colostrum :( is this normal?
Great question! In the first few days your body is making colostrum and it’s a lot thicker than milk. Your pump probably won’t get a lot out. Your milk will start coming in over the next few days. You’re doing a great job by allowing baby to nurse often. Keep it up! It’s helping your milk to come in!
Don’t worry about how much milk comes out when you pump. Babies are better at removing milk then breast pumps. Keep nursing baby as often as possible and pumping after each feed, it will definitely help your milk supply.
Does baby have a good latch? Are you sore afterwards?
Thank you for responding!! Yes, he has a good latch but as soon as he latches on, he falls asleep and it’s a struggle to get him to wake up and nurse. I’m afraid that if I keep giving him the bottle, he won’t want to drink from my breast anymore or he’ll have nipple confusion.
No worries! So could be a couple things. When you latch him is he TIRED or hungry? My babies loved to nurse themselves to sleep.
Try looking for hunger cues like rooting (head banging on your chest) or sucking his closed fist. Does he open real wide just before you latch? Is he already sleepy before he latched?
You can also change your position so he’s not interested in sleeping. If he’s too comfortable he’s gonna fall asleep every time. You could do skin to skin, keeping him in just a diaper, or change your hold. If he likes cradle hold, try football hold.
What’s his feeding routine?
1 oz is super good! I was only pumping 5ml first few days of discharge.. your body is amazing and knows exactly how to feed your baby. Your milk supply will increase gradually as baby’s appetite increase correspondingly. Don’t worry too much about it. Just supplement for the first few days if you think you don’t have enough. Fed is best. Don’t need to feel guilty for providing formula.
I am 4 days postpartum and I can't even produce a half of 1oz my baby also to always go to sleep on the breast within 5 minutes I'm worried too. How have things been going for you now?
You're so smart for adding FROZEN berries to your water. I think you are really an angel
Awww, that’s so kind of you to say Elizabeth! Thank you so much 🤗💛
My supply has been the same since 9 gave birth Sept 15. It's between 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 has been my max. Please advice. My baby is still in NICU but hopefully gets to go home today Nov 3rd.
Please please advice.
I am so desperate.
Can you let me know how to make the smoothie or what foods to eat.
I know I am not eating enough
I hear you momma, there are some great foods and smoothie recipes that can also help. Try this ruclips.net/p/PLQtARHIuIBzn5KFMRXiX9O5pS-8-k1jUV
One word: MALTA! You're welcome 😆 I dont sleep, super stressed, sometimes I don't even have time to drink water, exclusive pumper yet malta seems to help anyway lol. For the exclusive breastfeeders: nurse, nurse, and nurse that baby some more. Use a haakaa with suction on the other side. Exclusive pumpers: pump every 3 hours during the day, aim for 8 times and do not skip the overnight pump! (You can sleep for one 5 hour stretch, then get back to it). Oh and MALTA! 😂 I use legendairy milk supplements, I also use various herbs, galactogogues/lactogenic food in my diet but its really not that serious unless you're like struggling. Nurse that baby! See an IBCLC for flange sizing help/pump settings if you're a pumper or need help with latching for nursing. ❤
I was drinking malta and having oats for breakfast but i felt so heavy !! I gave up malta, maybe i should give up oats lol
@@danielacasald I feel you, malta is not healthy, it has a lot of sugar. I only use it if I feel like I really could use a boost.
When you mentioned pumping straight after a feed, how ling would you recommend? Like 10 or 20mins maybe?
Great question Sinead! It doesn’t have to be a long session at all! 3-5 minutes per side is plenty!
I pump and so little is collected. How often should i pump
My baby is just 10 days old
I have a 2 month old baby and I pump almost every 2-3hours. It’s usually advisable to pump after baby feeds... Stay hydrated whenever baby feeds you should also drink something.. The more you feed/pump the more milk you produce.., Also try not to stress as this will cause your milk supply to decrease 🌸🌸
Totally agree with you Ziyanda! It’s all about supply and demand. The more milk you demand from your body, the more it will produce. Congrats on the new baby s.laila!💛
This video is really motivating me to increase my supply but My baby can't handle slow flow even from bottle so I am using extra slow flow nipple while I bottle feed her . I am worried because she will collect breastmilk while nursing and some formula which might lead to choking coz she already can't handle flow. I wonder the flow from feeding tube. Any help on this ?
What a great question Suganya! The feeding tube is very, very narrow and the baby only gets a small amount of milk at a time. The feeding tube works AGAINST gravity unlike a bottle being held upright forcing milk down.
With the feeding tube, milk has to travel quite a distance before it gets to baby so it’s a very gentle process for them. It’s definitely worth a try.
How old is baby? 😊🤗💛
@@KarmaKennedy Thank you🙏 definitely going to try this. My baby is 2months and 6 days old
Congratulations! You got this momma! 🤗💛
