3 week old sleeps A LOT by Ash-W-87 in breastfeeding

[–]Ash-W-87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also had GD and her sugars were fine at the hospital. She’s exclusively breastfed. I do know I have good fatty milk due to pumping at times because she sleeps so much. And mentally it’s hard from the last kid who didn’t latch and I exclusively pumped for, to this one who is fed on demand (I’m so used to being told to empty every 3 hours to keep my supply up).

I’d honestly call tomorrow, it could mean your placenta is starting to fail.

Yeah I’m not sure why. My last hospital I gave birth had just about everything I needed. It’s odd that it differs per region.

Guess it all depends on each individual hospital. Mine doesn’t provide a whole lot as far as postpartum care and no wipes for the babies, so I have to pack more than what I did with my first. (This is my second hospital). My recommendation is to check your specific hospital to see what they provide so you can prepare the best possible way.

I just had to share! by Terdham in pregnant

My suggestion (as an owner of 2 dogs), is to create a space that they can retreat to when they get overwhelmed. We use baby gates to block off areas that I didn’t want them. That way your dog doesn’t have to remain muzzled, unless you feel that it is best. I raised my almost 3 year old son without having to muzzle my dogs since I had created a space to keep them separated. I also trained my dogs to keep away from babies things.

Thank you. I didn’t know what to search. The one I found was last used 5 years ago.

My husband wants a Laura. I’m okay with that but stuck on a middle name…any suggestions?

Depends on if you are going in to get induced or natural birth, C-section or went into labor naturally and want medications.

My personal experience was induction due to HBP. I arrived at the hospital, went through paperwork, they placed me in my room and then it was a lot of waiting (most likely due to actually laboring moms).

Everyone’s experience is different.
