My Turning Point With Pumping & How I Got There

In 8 weeks I went from this… TO THIS!!! By Changing this..

I thought it was “just me” and my body… At 5 weeks postpartum, I was told “your milk supply is gone” and “we can no longer keep trying exclusively nursing, you need to start formula right away.” Yes, we had struggled with latch, painful nursing, and poor weight gain but overall, I thought we were improving day by day. That’s when my doctor told me my breastfeeding journey was over.

Instead of giving up completely, I started triple feeding: pumping, still trying to latch baby occasionally, and giving formula supplements. I dove headfirst into researching pumping like crazy, desperate to find any tip, schedule, or hack that could make a difference. I tried everything out there, and eventually I found a few things that actually worked.

It wasn’t easy, there were tears, late-night pumping sessions, and moments when I felt like quitting. But slowly, ounce by ounce, my supply started coming back. And the best part? I proved to myself that it wasn’t just me .. my body was capable, it just needed the right support. It took time and determination, but it was so worth it! These are the top tips that really helped me, and I hope they help you too 🤍🤍🤍

One of my TOP Questions…

“What Pump Did You Change To?”

1. The BabyBuddha! A portable, strong and efficient pump that can be used as a main pump. I bought this with my own money (off a recomendation from YouTube..) and stopped using my free insurance provided wall pump.

SAVE $$ on the BabyBuddha With “BELL10” promo. This is a must try for mamas who want to increase milk supply, have flexibility and portability.. The one I recommend to my best friends, sister and YOU :)

2. The Momcozy M5! My must-have secondary pump that provides all the discreetness, on the go pumping and flexibility of a wearable pump with great suction and WITHOUT the high price tag! This one is the best price from Amazon and “BELLPUMP” will save extra off of the Amazon promo price!

“BELLPUMP” saves an extra 10% on all momcozy pumps on Amazon or momcozy.com!
