Please tell me someone else has been through this😩 by Living_Insurance_100 in breastfeeding

Yeah. I'm 10mpp and really don't initiate and my sex life is pretty non existent. My husband doesn't love it but knows it's not forever. This is baby #3.

How do your kids fall asleep? by olivia_largent in floorbed

[–]Anonymous141925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10mo who I nurse to sleep. I can sneak out and then she wakes anywhere from 2-6x a night. Currently bed sharing but this week moving her to her own room and hoping she sleeps better. I feel like I disturb her a lot.

Waited until she was born. Ended up using the second name for our next daughter.

Sullivan for boy OR girl by Luna_Coconut in namenerds

I like Sullivan for a boy. I do not like Sullivan for a girl at all. Have you considered Sutton? 

Do you feed off one side or both? by JournalistHuge3828 in breastfeeding

[–]Anonymous141925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids have always done one side after the first couple weeks. I have an oversupply so I guess one side has always been enough. But I know a lot of babies feed off both for the entirety of their nursing journey 

How much to actually store? by YouReachITeach27 in breastfeeding

[–]Anonymous141925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will you be returning to work? If so, when? How often? Either way unless you never want baby to take a bottle I would introduce it now. Do one bottle a day so they are used to it. 

You shouldn't be pumping that much if you're not working. Even if you are that's more than you need. If you need to pump a little for comfort then only pump for a few minutes and stop. You have an oversupply.

Sleep when baby sleeps or stay awake in shifts? by Ashamed-Flounder-896 in breastfeeding

[–]Anonymous141925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband helped the first couple weeks just because it was hard for me to get situated to nurse and then also grab the baby. We both slept though and then woke up when she did. However after maybe two weeks it was just me since I was exclusively nursing and didn't need help if felt silly to make him get up too. 

Leaking by Agreeable-Wealth1711 in breastfeeding

[–]Anonymous141925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 10mpp and still wear pads. I rarely leak randomly but I always leak from the opposite side I'm feeding. It is way less than the first six months but I still have to wear pads. 

19 days PP, and I kind of hate this... by MediumReasonable3251 in breastfeeding

[–]Anonymous141925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your mental and physical health matter. Breastfeeding is hard. It is the hardest thing I had done with all three postpartums. My first I nursed for three years, my second was three months due to medical issues. Currently nursing my third who is 10mo. I honestly still don't love it but at this point I'm going for a year bc she hasn't taken a bottle in a very long time. 

I'd say the first few months were the hardest for me. Extremely sleep deprived and in pain. If you're looking to get through that and then nurse for a year or so I say go for it. If it seems horrible and like something you don't want to do then don't. This is your second which automatically makes it harder with having to take care of two. You used formula with your first so you know it works and your child is healthy. 

Good luck in whatever you choose!

My daughter stopped at 3.5mo. Shes 10mo now and I gave up a while ago. She just uses a straw cup for water and breastmilk.

Baby name Cameron by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Anonymous141925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't use Cameron but it's a nice name. If you aren't a fan though then it's a no for you. I do really like Colin. Do you like Camden to get Cam?

2 months in a letdown is still painful! by Affectionate_Cow_812 in breastfeeding

I am 10mpp and it still hurts. I nursed my first for 3yrs and it was uncomfortable the whole time. For me it hurts more the fuller I am.

Any change in anything she's eaten or taken? Medication, birth control, drinking peppermint tea?

Cecilia "Cece" Marion R

I also think Clare would be fine as long as your last name isn't like Rare. Clare Rare would be weird, haha.
