I have to travel up the coast in a few weeks for an important appointment that goes all day and I can't take my daughter who is breast feed so she is being looked after for the day.

My LO is 5 weeks old and we've been exclusively BF and had no problems with supply or latching on but.. I hate smelling like milk all the time, or worrying about leaking through my...

I am trying my best to breastfeed my second son as I only lasted 2 weeks with my first due to issues. Up to 6 weeks I have nailed it. However he has had thrush in his mouth which doctor put him on oral drops for. It would seem I now have nipple thrush too! It is EXTREMELY painful and on top of that...

I'm hoping for some advice re feeding our little girl who's 5wks old. We're solely formula feeding and as a result stop during the bottle to do some burping. We've been recommended to burp every 30mL or so however whenever we stop she screams like a crazy person through the entire burping process...
