Has anyone’s partner liked sucking on your boobs while producing milk? Like he asks all the time to suck on your boobs. Is that a breastfeeding fetish? What does it mean?

Has anyone else had this? My baby boy was born two weeks early and I had no supply yet! I pumped A LOT and we finally got pretty well established with breastfeeding, but topped up with bottles.

I’m wanting to try and give my by a bottle of expresses milk every now and then. Does anyone have any recommendations on what bottles are best to introduce to a baby who has never had anything but boob?

Hi moms! For those that are also pumping. I’m 6 months PP now and it seems like my wearable pumps don’t get as much milk out anymore as compared to my electric pump. Has anybody else noticed this? Do I just need to get new ones?

I've been looking on Tik Tok on how different people do night feeds and how they set up their bedroom space. I plan to breastfeed & pump so my partner can night feed but I've seen a lot of people who seem to have quite complex routines. My thought process is ... surely I can pump my breastmilk in to bottles, kee...

Probably a silly question…for those of you who have started collecting some colostrum, I have done lots of homework into how to collect it and I was given those little purple syringe things from my midwife, but what do I collect it in?
