re\starting

[reallytinyamy]

I have been bottle feeding Chloe for a while now as I hated breast feeding. I have decided I want to try and start expressing again. Has anyone successfully stopped using the breast and then started again, I know my milk hasnt completely dried up but is it too late to dry and get the productio9n up again?

i dont think it will be too late.... if your still leaking and stuff.... good luck hun!!
Expressing works for me

It isn't too late. Toria was successful, and Deise was too I think. You have got to get baby on that breast as much as she'll tolerate. That is bar none, the best way and most efficient way to do it. Otherwise, you have to try and pull it in with the pump. I'd call a lactation consultant near you so they can help you with the transition. Start taking fenugreek supplement. If you just stick with it, I'm sure you'll perservere!

Good luck!

i dont think it will be too late you will just need to express reguarly to get you supply up again. i got my LO back on th boob after 9 weeks on the bottle so it can be done!
