Holidaying with an ebf baby

[Mummabubbles]

6 week old ebf baby, feeding is going well we have had no problems at all to date. We are going on holiday to a warm country in 4weeks for 2 weeks and I'm worried that I won't know how to deal with any problems should they arise while we are away........is the heat likely to affect my supply in any way?? How will I recognise a blocked duct/mastitis/thrush and what can I do about them?? Hopefully we won't have any issues and will continue to happily breast feed through the holiday but I'd like to be prepared for any event!!

Heat won't affect your supply though baby may drink more often to keep hydrated!

Heat shouldn't affect anything except you both may be more thirsty.

If you do feel like you are getting a blocked duct then lots of feeding for baby to clear it, massage towards the nipple to help move the blockage and have a hot bath/shower and hand express.

Have a lovely time and try not to worry

I'm on holiday at the ment in Spain and its pretty hot. My dd is 11 weeks old and she is ebf at the moment ( other problems going on with dd so might stop soon). She has fed a bit more frequently and your body just gives them what they need for hot weather. :) if you do feel like for example you have thrush or something like that, go to a doctor or chemist. They are very good overseas.
Have a great holiday :)
