Thank you for the update! We both had babies at the same time and I watched the new born video earlier. I was only breastfeeding him and beating myself up for not pumping enough. I got new pumps from the US to help increase the supply and was a little sad I didn’t have an oversupply to help me with bottle feed during my brother’s wedding. I had to put him on formula then. But I’m so glad he didn’t get too attached to the bottle and he is back on breastfeeding completely now. But since then have gone back and forth on the bottle feed because of night feeds and I’m really glad you cleared it up for me!
You can pump & feed with a spoon like it was traditionally done in India instead of the bottle. On the bottle milk flow is easy and comfortable whereas breastfed babies need to suck hard on the areola using their gums without which the milk will not flow besides there’s nipple confusion and hence babies doing both will prefer the bottle. Feeding with a spoon will not prevent latching to the breast unlike bottle feeding! It’s also more sterile to use a bowl & spoon. Pumping is an option when the mother is not available 24 x 7 and has to go to work
I am watching your video since you are pregnant just for river and i am living in London Only with my husband and i have newborn baby he is just 40 days baby And you are vlog helps me a lot trust me you are genuine 💗 guiding the natural way's its incredible thanks❤
River is Little rasgulla he is a very calm baby i love him so much🥰coz of him i seen your vlogs. you both are really proud parents. Stay blessed always
It’s good you talked about breastfeeding because you have a lot of young people following. The body is able to do it perfectly. And with issues you can always consult an IBCLC to get help with breastfeeding. No need to feel embarrassment in public. I am now having my second baby and I will just breastfeed anywhere. I have experienced the worst pain in the world 2 times and after that I stopped caring about other people’s judgement.
Alanna would have married any indian from her surroundings …be it anyone…No one would have been such amazing and loving Husband and father like Ivor is ….. god bless u both ❤
Alanna I just want to say that u r a amazing human being from being a amazing daughter , sister, wife and now mother. Taking care of everything side by side working so profoundly in your professional life. I love the fact that you have done everything on your own and not behaving like a prevelaged one. It will always help you I future and one day you will be proud of yourself that how beautifully you have managed everything. Now days girls Don't want to breastfeed their baby because they want to enjoy their life. I adore you..and love you. Being elder to you I just want to give you blessings ang power. Ivor is also a blessing always get positive vibes from him. Loads of love!!!!!! Care!!!!!! And wishes!!!!
I'm a new mom too. Thank you so much for clarifying about pumping. I exclusively breastfeed directly. For a sec, I was influenced that maybe I should pump too and carry a bottle etc.
Same thing happened to me. After a while I was like why are we encouraged to pump, at all, when our situation does not demand it? Bought 2 pumps to be more "efficient"😂. Never even opened the second one out of the package. All the pumps and bottles are chilling in storage. And pumping is the WORST. Exclusively pumping mammas, hats off to you all
I love your videos because I have also a baby.... And i see your videos when u n me were pregnant at the same time.... So it's therapy for me.. Thanks u so much for update❤❤
That lactation consultant sucks. I was told by a LC to never use a pump because your breast is the pump. Kudos for working so hard with him and not just throwing in the towel!
Even though u guys have always been working very very hard to create this beautiful life for yourself, u make it look so easy.... always stay happy and blessed
Oh dear the three love nest . I luv the videos you post . Your love story is soo divine and beautiful and with the arrival of River the bond of love is sealed forever . May God bless your little family with lots of happiness , laughter and joy . Love you three to the moon and back . I'm a big fan of you . Please send me a hi or a hello back so I know you have read my message .❤️❤️❤️
Pumping is definitely not the most convenient way but many moms like me were not able to breastfeed at all. My baby never latched and better to have your baby being fed if that’s either through pumping or breastfeeding! 😊 To each their own ❣️
Breastfeeding and even not caring about bottle sanitization is blessing for both baby and mother specially with travelling.i hope you can continue as long as possible. Please dnt care if ppl are watching u.
Everyone who is watching their video please say Ma sha Allah, for the baby river because it means my Allah swt protects him from the evil eyes or from bed happening. Ma sha Allah, he is so cute.
You both are the best couple and best parents... Love to watch your videos. Most of it are more informative... I gave birth to baby 4months after River born ... I would request you to make a video on is it good to tie stomach after delivery.. how many months it will take for stomach to come to normal after baby birth ... A video on this will help new mom to know on this
Wow Alanna it's so wonderful you breastfeed because it's really crucial for the baby. I breastfed both my kids and it was so much better than the hassle of having to wash bottles and pump. I'm really glad you are doing what is important.
Thanks a lot Alana for this video…have been exclusively breast feeding my baby..he’s now 9 months and breastfed still. Just wanted to check till when do you plan to feed. Also soo true, pumping and cleaning bottles is such a task ended up doing this only cause I’m lazy and couldn’t stand cleaning bottles and pumps 😂 Lots of love to River and mom and dad ❤
This happened to me as well. I started pumping and the body end up producing more milk that the baby need. For me overflow of milk and so irritating. Then I stopped as my aunt said don't go with those machines..go natural. Your body knows hows much milk baby needs❤🇨🇦
Thank you so much for talking about this cause I’m pretty much going through the same thing atm. My baby is a month or two younger than River and he started to prefer the bottle over the breast at 2.5 months. My lactation consultant recommended I give him one bottle a day to keep his bottle habit so his dad would give him one when I was sleeping in the morning but slowly he transitioned to only wanting to drink from the bottle. My baby is still doing night feeding and an occasional evening feed from the breasts but this is mostly still a struggle.
Hi Alanna &Ivor..Another lovely video of your regular lives .Much appreciate you sharing your breast feeding journey .Ive become a mum again for the second time and I’ve had to resort to using the pacifier for this baby ..I was wondering if you could share your experience using a pacifier for your little one .in this video I noticed your baby didn’t have the pacifier .He was content with his toys .I wish to do away with the pacifier when my baby is 5 -6 months old . Thanks .
Omg the way he is patiently listening to ivor talk about the drive 💖😭
He is soooo cute lil baby
🥰🥰
This is a mother's duty and you've done it to fullest allana soooo good of you
and she is a mother..?. 😂
Mr Ivor is giving the whole perfect caring Papa and Husband vibe all the time🤍
0:15 - River is proud of his dad and have lot of confidence in his dad's driving skills😁
River is such a happy child and that's because he has two amazing and lovely parents. I love this cute little family of 3 so so much ❤

Thank you Alanna for the information about breastfeeding and pumping. Personal experience is always the best teacher.

How adorable River is 😍😫🤧
Evil eyes off 💙🧿🧿💙
It's nice you're able to exclusively breast feed. Some women really struggle. Breast feeding is great immunity wise, happy it worked out!
When Alanna was talking I was just watching River behind the mirror 😭😭🤍
Same thing happened to me. After a while I was like why are we encouraged to pump, at all, when our situation does not demand it? Bought 2 pumps to be more "efficient"😂. Never even opened the second one out of the package. All the pumps and bottles are chilling in storage. And pumping is the WORST. Exclusively pumping mammas, hats off to you all
