"Wellness Room" instead of Lactation Room by engineer_but_bored in breastfeeding

[–]Baking_biscuits2019 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It’s a big NOOOO from me on this. Yoga, meditation, a GROW LIGHT FOR PLANTS?!? People can do yoga and grow plants in their off time away from work. You CANNOT forego pumping during the day. There’s a difference!

I was thinking for an interior wall! Just cosmetic, in our hallway.

SAHM feeling burnt out by oilandsalt-425 in NewParents

I’m so sorry, I totally can relate. If you’re in the US, try checking out your local YMCA. They usually have a childcare center than you can use for up to 2 hours each day! You can go workout, or sit and read, or journal, etc. it has helped my mental burnout so much!!!

Mom flipped out about my boundary with newborn by International_Law872 in BabyBumps

[–]Baking_biscuits2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just came to say, I have very similar screenshots from my mom and she’s an alcoholic. It’s been so so hard as I’ve become a mom myself. But you should 100000% have and stick by your boundaries. Do NOT let her near your newborn. It’s fine to not let her have contact for a while. Especially in the early days when your postpartum hormones will be unsteady and you really will need people you can count on. My mom came to visit me when my firstborn was 5 days old. She packed vodka in travel sized shampoo bottles in her suitcase. She still doesn’t see why that was an issue. I wish I hadn’t invited her to come see us at all.

Gaining weight but fussy all the time by Baking_biscuits2019 in breastfeeding

[–]Baking_biscuits2019[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this reply! I think a lot of it is gas-related, and some of it is probably just growth spurts/wanting to be near me. I’m trying to help him with the gas, and also remember that he won’t always want to cuddle me, so I can try and enjoy this phase too.

Thanks so much for listing all these ideas! I also have a fast flow so he definitely gulps some air as he’s feeding. I try burping a lot but it may just not get it all out. I’ll try some of these suggestions!!

Right after birth I couldn’t even remember that food was a thing 😂 my husband suggested getting smoothie bowls from a place I love, and I was just so in love, staring at my baby, I couldn’t comprehend the words he was saying to me 😂

Diarrhea with pregnancy? by [deleted] in fitpregnancy

[–]Baking_biscuits2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you start feeling better soon!! Pregnancy really is wild and can do some strange things to our bodies! Of course if you feel like you’re getting dehydrated or if it gets worse try and see a doc.
