Anyone want to be my relactation buddy?

[kellysays2u]

I really need some everyday support... and maybe someone to remind me to pump more often to... My OH isnt all that supportive and none of my friends understand... So was just wondering if there was anyone out there?

Would you like a mum who's been there or pairing with a mum who is going through it now? I know Claire-Lou is trying to re-lactate too.

Yep I was gonna say the same, Claire-Lou is doing it now......

I have done it but am not going through it right now xxx

I dont really care lol. This is my second time re-lactating. She keeps doing nursing strikes but then pretending to be interested again. Shes a little miss sometimes lol. Plus she is going to have surgery soon and if it doesnt go exactly as planned could weaken her immune system so really want to have her on breast milk if that happens.

I'd say Claire-Lou and Logiebear then - 2 different perspectives.

I'm currently in the process of trying to establish relactation. I breastfed my daughter for the first six weeks of her life then switched to bottle for various reasons, the main being an embarassing case of piles that felt lie everytime I sat to breastfeed, I was sitting on a piece of glass!!

I made the decison to try relactating about two weeks ago, my breasts still produced a tiny weeny dot of greasy stuff..since then I've tried fennel, domperidon, expressing, and trying to relatch..all to the success of 2ml!! Im actually quite chuffed with this!!

I would love to have a relactation buddy to go throught this with..anyone who can offer any advice, tips or moral support would be super!

I think its great that you are trying to relactate. xx
