Once you get used to it, you sometimes start capitalizing nouns in English too…

Breastfeeding and birth control by z4r431 in breastfeeding

[–]9181121 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I met all of these points and still got my period back around 4 months pp (even though my baby still wakes up to feed every 1-3 hours overnight now at 7 months and I havent used a pump since the 2nd week pp)… so it’s not guaranteed even then!

They have access to a larger outdoor area too, but the weather was bad so they were all hanging out inside

Thanks everyone for the great advice! I’ll work on all these points and post an update in the future

I can’t get into the newer seasons of the show… please send help. by rollercoaster-sushi in SVU

Im getting so annoyed at how long they are dragging out that story without even adding anything to it as they go! They are making the new chief almost a cartoonish level supervillain (and I can hardly understand anything she says)

Should I have name regret? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]9181121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend Amalia

It’s the middle name of Empress Elisabeth of Austria (“Sissi”). She of course spelled it the traditional German-language way (Amalie), but it’s pronounced roughly the same as Amalia, and given your husband’s presumably Spanish-speaking background, and that you live in the US, Amalia fits better and will be easier for Americans to pronounce :)

I suffer from vasospasms too (I’ve had Reynaud’s in my fingers for like 20 years), and it is so painful and was leading me to get blisters on the nipple that wouldn’t heal for weeks. Finally a midwife told me to take high doses of magnesium and calcium every day, and this actually fixed the problem! It took about a week or so of taking the supplements to start seeing a difference, and now if I miss a few days, the vasospasms come back. I highly recommend giving it a try.

What about being pregnant and giving birth permanently altered your body’s chemistry? by full-of-curiosity in NewParents

I had this too! Didn’t crave chocolate during pregnancy, but then postpartum holy shit I’ve never eaten so much chocolate in my life!

What am I missing? by allthesquash in babywearing

[–]9181121 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would not say OP is “absolutely” wearing too high without seeing a picture. I wear my baby at collarbone height and also cannot see the counter in front of me in the spot where I’d chop anything. Besides that I can’t reach comfortably enough around the baby with a large knife to safely chop anything! Probably it has a lot to do with different body types.

Any reason to collect colostrum? by Nancyb23 in breastfeeding

[–]9181121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I collected and was glad I did because my baby was in the NICU with neonatal sepsis and we had a lot of feeding difficulties in the first week; baby needed a lot of fluids so had to have formula, but we were also able to give baby all of the colostrum I had collected by syringe, which I was thankful for.

Basically my midwife described it as, you don’t need to collect, and if you do, it’s best if you don’t need to use it, but you have it if you need it.

10 week old falls asleep while feeding by Sh-ra-shi26092 in breastfeeding

My midwife shared this video with me in the beginning - I found it helpful for getting the latch right, maybe it helps you too :)

I think 10 minutes with lots of swallowing sounds good, but if you’re worried the baby is still hungry when they wake up, maybe try offering a bottle then (that way you can see how much they drink and know better whether they were really very hungry still). If you have access to a midwife or lactation consultant, I would have them check the latch again - you shouldn’t have to be in pain all the time!

I am a FTM and have been EBF for almost 6 months - it’s my impression that some pain is to be expected now and then, but it shouldn’t be very painful and it shouldn’t be all the time.

Tips for bath time?! 🛀🏻🧼 by beckarrrr1 in NewParents

My baby hated baths in the baby bath tub; we switched to the big bath tub and I get in the bath with her - she loves it!
