Is it bad to breastfeed?

I have found that it is really comfortable for breast feeding both with and without my breast feeding pillow....if I forget my pillow the chair is small enough that it can act as a support for my arm. The more I'm using it the happier I am with it.

You shouldnt be warming breastmilk with boiling water in the first place. Its supposed to be warmed under luke warm water otherwise boiling it destroys the vitamin content. I warmed my breastmilk by warm tap water and then put it in the bottle. Also to get the nipple warm and to smell like me i placed it under my breast until i was ready to add the milk.

It is for babies. It says "for breastfeeding moms" because mothers who are primarily breastfeeding can use this product to supplement their baby's diet. If you have a good milk supply then you obviously wouldn't need to worry about using this product, but if you have trouble keeping your baby well-fed with breastmilk alone, then this product can help.

I would definitely recommend as my baby is exclusively breast fed and she could easily use this one , she is still using it! She is 1 y o now&#128522;

I would assume so because it is organic but I wouldn't suggest giving this to babies less than a year old because they have certain nutritional needs in which cow milk doesn't quite cut it. Try Hipp or Holle which are sold on Amazon and eBay. Order it from the UK cause customs can be jerks when it comes from Germany. When I had big problems making breast milk my baby was very happy and healthy with those 2 formulas. I put these in his cereal or give it to my boy when my boobs have a bad day or I want to go out somewhere and not in the mood for the breast pump. He sleeps 12 hours a night, takes naps, colic went away, no more rash, no poo problems, he's big for his age, and the pediatrician said hes doing well in every way.

I didn't think so but I also didnt use it that often. The nipple itself was so long it seemed to almost choke my son. To me it wasn't much like the breast other than the sucking motion to get the milk out. Once he would suck so much winks get into the nipple it would just pour out.

yes I think so. I've noticed that it is not as cool at around 7 -8 hours so I wouldn't push it much past 6 hours, especially with breast milk.

I started using it to feed my 5 month old baby. It is made out of milk cartons and if I remember correctly the box said that it could be used for actual feedings. As long as you wash it (I do it by hand) I do not see a problem with it.

I called Abbott Labs to ask about this.. I was told that Similac for Supplementation is fine to feed a baby who's not being breastfeed.. It offers complete nutrition.

There is nothing on the packaging or bottle itself mentioning that it is not safe to take while breastfeeding. If it helps you to decide at all. I have taken it while breastfeeding and I give it to my toddlers. Ages 2 and 4.

I'm not quite sure if it helps with the other breast producing more milk or not I just started it seems like it helpsI think that you should nurse the baby on the other breast as much as possible to produce more milk.I have nursed seven children so I prettymuch know everything about it

Ask your Dr., midwife, or lactation consultant. Check with la leche league.

Of course! Just remember that you should only keep a 24 hour supply. Some say 48 hours but, why risk it :) Also if your pediatrician approves it I used motherlove more milk special blend it helped my supply a lot since I was exclusively pumping for a preemie who couldn't latch on. It's a lot of work just keep going as long as you can! And pump as often as you can, you should read about power pumping that helped me a lot as well. Also try motherlove nursing cream its great!

It would work just fine. It's pure and would be fine for the infant to ingest in small quantities. There isn't a harsh smell. It's the consistency of cool honey. I think it would work better for chapped nipples if you added shea butter and a bit of vitamin E oil though. This is thick enough that it would stay on, especially if you used a shield too.

Yes you can, its called Toddler formula more as a matter of principle (to encourage breastfeeding) than because it is any different from baby formula.

I personally only wear mine on the non-nursing side when my daughter is feeding but it really isn't very bulky so I think you could wear it in your bra. Sometimes I forget to take it out so I bend over and milk has gone all over the place.... just to warn you! Haha.
