✨Night 2✨

Okay, let’s get real. You’ve had your baby, those first 24 hours? A hazy, sleepy bubble.

They’re feeding, they’re snoozing, you’re thinking, “Wow, I’ve got this parenting thing down!”

Then, BAM! Night 2 hits you like a tidal wave. Suddenly, your little one is a 24/7 b**b-seeking missile.

They don’t want to be put down, they’re cluster feeding like it’s their job, and you’re staring at the ceiling at 3 am wondering if you’ve somehow broken your baby 🤯

Here’s the truth: Night 2 is a crucial part of establishing your milk supply. It’s when your prolactin levels are at their peak, and your baby is naturally driving production up.

This intense cluster feeding is exactly what your body needs to make sure you have a robust milk supply!

The biggest mistake many new Mums make? Panicking and reaching for formula. You think your milk isn’t enough, that something is wrong. (Spoiler: nothing is wrong!)

Now, let me be clear, I am a huge supporter of your choice. Formula, combo feeding, exclusive breastfeeding – whatever works for you, works for me! 🙌🏼

BUT, if your goal is to exclusively breastfeed, powering through Night 2’s marathon b**b session is vital!

So, how do you survive Night 2? Think of it as a slumber party, but with a newborn. Stock up on snacks, queue up your favorite movies, make sure your phone is charged, and tell your partner, “When the sun comes up, I’m getting some sleep.”

This night is about survival AND setting yourself up for long-term breastfeeding success 🥰

Remember, this intense phase is temporary. It’s your baby’s way of saying, “Mum, we need more milk!”

Trust the process, trust your body, and know that you’re doing an amazing job❤️

Want to set yourself up beautifully for breastfeeding, protect your milk supply from the get-go and feel super confident for when your baby arrives?

✨Bottle Refusal in Breastfed Babies✨

If you are struggling with this, you are NOT alone!!! A study carried out in the UK in 2020 showed that 61% of breastfed babies refused the bottle!!

I was one of those Mums and this is why I created my bottle refusal course! When my baby refused the bottle it significantly impacted my postnatal experience… I found out the hard way that sleep deprivation really impacts my mental health.

My husband and I had always planned for our daughter to have one bottle of expressed breast milk at some point over night. This was so I could get one chunk of sleep and she did take that one bottle from day 5 for a few weeks and then she refused and never took a bottle again… I had no guidance or knowledge on bottle refusal at the time, there was no course out there and I tried the tips I could find online but it simply didn’t work 😔

So for the past 4 years I have been learning EVERYTHING I can about bottle refusal and how to over come it.

I have a *100% success rate* with the clients I have worked with 1:1 and I have now turned my technique into an easy to follow course with everything you need to overcome bottle refusal in 2 weeks or LESS!!!!

Comment “Bottle” below and I will send you the link to my bottle refusal course. You are not alone, help is here ❤️

“I’m only pumping 1–2 ounces… is my milk supply low?”

Most of the time the answer is no!

But let’s talk about what’s actually normal when it comes to pumping.

Pumps don’t remove milk as well as babies. This is the most important thing to understand.

A breast pump is not as effective as a well-latching baby at removing milk from the breast.

Babies use their tongue, jaw and suction in a way pumps simply can’t fully replicate. That means the amount you pump is not the same as the amount your baby can drink at the breast.

So the amount you see in the bottle is NOT a reliable measure of your milk supply!

When you pump while breastfeeding, you’re usually collecting extra milk, not the milk your baby needs for that feed.

+ milk supply and pumping output naturally fluctuate. It’s completely normal to see changes depending on things like:

• time of day
• growth spurts
• hormonal shifts
• stress or illness

Some days you might pump more. Some days less.

That’s NORMAL.

Breastfeeding works on a demand-and-supply system.

The more milk that is removed from the breast, the more milk your body is signalled to make.

One really important reminder📌

The amount you pump is not a measure of how much milk your baby is getting at the breast. Your pump is simply a tool. Your baby is still the best removing milk there is.

But that doesn’t mean pumping has to feel frustrating or unpredictable!

Because while pumps will never replace a baby at the breast, there are ways to make sure your pump is working as effectively as possible for you.

Small changes to things like:

• fl**ge sizing
• timing of pumping sessions
• hands-on pumping

can make a HUGE difference to the amount you’re able to express.

And so many mums are never actually taught how to do this properly.

If pumping is making you question your milk supply, just know that this is a common concern parents have - especially returning to work or trying to build a freezer stash!

Inside my pumping & BF course, is our expert-backed guide that helps you pump smarter, without the stress. Comment PUMP and I’ll send it straight to you 💌

In case anyone needs reminding not to panic about the small quantities of colostrum … here is a visual representation of how small a baby’s stomach is.
