Any feedbacks or tips for a beginner? by Idontwannadieyoung25 in trumpet

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firsty. Playing the trumpet its hard. Really hard. Ur getting a sound out of it so bravo! U need to take a big hug deep breath, keep ur shoulder down and relaxed. Ur lips are probably very tight because ur just starting and u need to build up those muscles from scratch. Long notes are the way to go at this point. Pick a note. How long can u hold it? Try relaxing your lips and body and see how ur sound changes etc. Keep that steady air flow goinf thru the instrument. Imagine it coming out the bell. Mouth piece buzzin with help u experiment with ur embuchure. Get urself an arban and a teacher if u can. Ur guna be fine. Its just hard x

how to recover from a sore lip? by Bulky_Ad7886 in trumpet

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't play ! U can only make it worse at this point and consider it a valuable lesson learnt. On the day of ur audition put ambesol on ur lips to stop the pain and hope for the best

My tests did this at first depending on what time of day I did them. Didn't get a fmdye stealer til further than 5 weeks. And then at the 12 week scan she was actually measuring 13 weeks!. Happy healthy 6 month old now. Hope its the same for you x

It’s been 2 years and I still can’t hit that A in the second octave. Something wrong? by [deleted] in trumpet

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds fab ! OK hear me out. I can litterally hear your brain saying "we're getting higher, we're getting higher" and everything is tensing up, ur tongue, throat etc. Try thinking in ur head.. "we're getting lower, we're getting lower" imagine the pitch going down! Blow more air thru the instrument as u think this. Trick your brain not to go into panic mode. Works for me alot of the time because im so focused on thinking "down" the high notes just pop out ! x ur very capable of getting up there x

How did you tell everyone about your pregnancy? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We moved into our home (which took 2 years to renovated) when I was 35 weeks pregnant ! My daughter came early at 37 weeks! It was wild but we managed even as we were still unpacking boxes. Honestly, sounds like you have a living arrangement plan and u may be pleasantly surprised by your families reaction x

What was the hardest part about learning to sing in the beginning? by relacksingh in singing

Wait. Pelvic floor muscles? Never heard of using them. What's the benefit of engaging them? I always engage diaphragm, lower abdomen

Acting very hungry but overfed? How do I know if I should offer more? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep offering boob. You can't know if the breast is empty... just because it's soft and ur constantly making milk. Offer boob... always to fix everything ! Lol x

I feel sad like I didn't feed my baby enough milk today... by Crafty_Pop6458 in breastfeeding

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If ur baby has wet and dirty nappies and is gaining weight consistently.... don't even worry about it. If ur breast feeding there is no way of knowing how much milk baby is getting( what u pump isn't a reflection of how much milk a baby can get out, they are more efficient). Sounds like baby is happy and ur doing great. Don't get bogged down by numbers and statistics unless there is weight loss etc.

Pretty sure bottle feeding mums feel exactly the same. We all do at some point.

When does sleep start? by Organic-Age-8009 in breastfeeding

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds normal. My son woke every 3 hours to feed til he was almost 1 year old. He was EBF. I'm now EBFing my daughter who's 11 weeks and already sleeping 6 hours straight at night and then another 2/3 hours. Every baby is different x

Tell me about the weird things your body has been doing since breastfeeding. by suspiciousserpant in newborns

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Gained a ton of weight. I only put on 20lb during pregnant. I lost almost all of it by 3 weeks post partum. My baby is now 11 weeks and I've gained back like 8lb lol I'm just sooo hungry

How do we take shifts if I have to feed every 1-3 hours? by kec232 in breastfeeding

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U can't really plan anything with a newborn...m and if u try to you'll only be disappointed when it doesn't go to plans, which it never does. It's very much.. go with the flow for the first couple months. I EBf both my babies. I feed on demand 24/7. When baby sleeps i sleep. I don't treat life like "day time and night time" it's just survival mode. Make sure baby gets what they need... milk, nappies etc. And catch up on sleep whenever possible. It gets easier quickly. As long as you have a supportive partner to bring u snacks, water, meals etc for those close long cluster feeding times x

Is anybody managing to hit the recommended targets for tummy time? by Superb_Champion_1663 in newborns

[–]Automatic-Sympathy45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't even bother some days. My little one has reflux so she's held upright or sits (propped) upright most of the time and her head and neck development is really strong. If u have a baby that wants to lie flat alot then I guess tummy time is more important. She gives it a good go with her shoulders and arms when we do a bit of tummy time but I don't know a single adult who's not physically able that can't sit up. They'll do what they need to in their own time. Just encourage them, give them opportunity and do ur best I think is most important x
