Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding FAQ?

Do we want to create a sticky FAQ for our board? Here's one that Adoption did and I like the format.

https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/12054653/faqs#latest

We just decide on the list of questions, create a link for each one that we can leave up for a little while, maybe keep bumping up for a week or to give everyone time to respond, and then ask a Mod to make the master FAQ post sticky.

Thoughts? If there's interest I can help compile the list of questions.

Re: Breastfeeding FAQ?

  • @theresat858 that's true, and I wouldn't want to discourage people from posting but a lot of the questions are the SAME too, like:

    How can I increase my pumping output?

    How much milk should I leave with my DCP?

    What kind of bottle/nipple works best?

    Help I'm having latch issues

    Help I have mastitis/thrush/plugged duct

    Etc. and I think that getting different opinions is actually helpful, like you tell people don't pump in bags and I say pump in bags! I think it gives people different  perspectives and they can pick what works best for them KWIM?

    Could also aim for an FAQ post once a week or so at first. I don't think it's fast moving enough here to have a daily FAQ update with a new topic every day
    I like this idea, why don't we do one FAQ a week and if there are issues, like trolls or people giving flat out incorrect information, could we ask our mods to clean it up maybe?
