Children’s hospital in Milwaukee

Hello fellow Wisconsinites! Does anyone know if children’s hospital of Wisconsin (the one in Milwaukee right next to Froedtert Hospital) allows strollers? I have an almost 9 week old and need to pick up a prescription for her at the pharmacy inside children’s. She is so heavy in her car seat and it’s a bit of a walk from the parking garage to the pharmacy. I would ideally love to pop her in her stroller instead of carry her all the way there. Thanks in advance!!

Hi, first time mom here and have been formula feeding my seven week old for pretty much seven weeks. My initial goal was to exclusively pump and then bottle feed my breastmilk, but that stopped two days postpartum because I went back into the hospital with postpartum preeclampsia, and my whole pumping schedule was thrown off. Because the schedule was off and the stress of pumping being not good for my blood pressure, I stopped pumping after two days. They also gave me a pill in the hospital to dry up my milk supply because I decided when I was re-hospitalized to end my pumping journey. Why now, after seven weeks of not pumping, breast-feeding, etc., and only formula feeding my baby, are my breasts leaking? The color is white, too, almost like breastmilk. It’s different than my colostrum, which was more yellow/clear. The other night, I very lightly squeezed my nipple just to see if they were still leaking, and milk (I think?) squirted out in a small stream. Can this happen almost 2 months postpartum? I’m thinking it’s normal but wanted to ask on here just to be sure. Thanks in advance.
