I'm still breastfeeding, my baby is already 7mths... I still have to pump at midnight and again at 4am!

Hi Robiq!

My baby is about the same age. Why do you need to pump at night?

Hi everyone!!


I am also one breastfeeding mum... In fact when i am typing this now, my son is latched on.

I have been breastfeeding my son for 21 months now. I breastfed my #1 girl for 14 months.

Hi Dreamygal!

My baby is also latched on as I type!

Hi breastfeeding mommies, does anyone of you know if it is okay to take evening primrose oil while breastfeeding? I have one bottle going to expire. I recall gynae said dun take during pregnancy, so I didn't think of taking it so far while I continue to partially breastfeed. DS is 1yo now. Don't want to waste the bottle of EPO. :moneyflies:

EPO is ok during breastfeeding. In fact, you may find it helps reduce sore nipples associated with menstruation (which makes breastfeeding uncomfortable).

Thank you MummyThreeStreams for your advice. Wow you sleep late or woke up to latch at 2+ am?

Baby has a stuffy nose so kept waking up last night!

MummyThreeStreams, hope baby recovers quickly. Tried elevating his head a little?


Breastfeeding mommies, it is World Breastfeeding Week this week. Congrats for being a great mommy by giving the best nutrition to your baby! :rahrah:

Hi fellow breastfeeding mummies,


I intend to purchase a new breast pump to replace my current one. I was recommended the Medela Pump In Style Advanced.

Can any of the mummies using the above model provide any feedback? How is it comparable to the Medela Freestyle??

Appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.
