In fact this tends to be the case whenever switching milk types as well. It can make for a very upset baby.<br /><br />When it comes to breastmilk drying up, you should not pump it out. Rather, you should allow it to dry up by itself. Besides from increasing the chances of mastitis, it also encourages your body to produce even more milk since you're emptying le boobs. Hand expressing should only be encouraged if there is excessive engorgement, and even then, just limited to getting rid of enough to provide some sort of relief.<br /><br />http://www.justmommies.com/articles/drying-up-milk.shtmlRoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16942422865978422288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5004185342179568982.post-2802875547769748272012-01-27T03:27:05.221-08:002012-01-27T03:27:05.221-08:00no such planning in our case ...

Laila had a stomach ache and we went to hospital to check it out, and came back with a baby :) so long as you breast feed, the baby won't get sick, it does make a big difference.. it's also OK I guess to mix breast feeding and bottle feeding depending on the need, in any case it will take a while for the tits to realise they're not needed and during that time you're going to be pumping stuff out of them, risking mastitis, and generally feeling like the cow the farmer forgot ..Dave Alan Caruanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01618699769546234712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5004185342179568982.post-30762676094955735402012-01-27T02:38:25.468-08:002012-01-27T02:38:25.468-08:00Woot hoot!!!!
