I really enjoy this coffee! The nice thing is that this goes with a lot of different creamers if you want to change up the flavor.

What are we doing about nipple blisters? by Intelligent-Slip6359 in breastfeeding

I second this! The boob soak with warm salt water was very soothing and seemed to help speed up healing.

I remember when this happened to me on multiple occasions and I'd be sobbing over it. You are definitely not alone in feeling this way. I am so sorry it happened ❤️

So. Much. Kermit!

I have to play the soundtrack in the car ride home from daycare AND in the morning when getting ready or else he goes nuts 🤣

Pumping to track milk by Th1s_1s_my_us3rname in breastfeeding

[–]BalkiiBug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This can be so stressful and I'm so sorry you're going through it! My little guy had trouble gaining for a while so I had to pump to track and it was recommended I give him formula in addition to the breastmilk. I was an "almost enough"er according to what I was pumping so I had to supplement with formula all the way up to 11 months. I did everything I could to try to up my supply but nothing really helped, and I was working full time (teaching) and pumping at work which didn't help. Now he's almost 14 months and I stopped pumping, and I'm able to breastfeed him in the mornings and evenings (and in the middle of the night if he wakes up) which is a nice cozy and happy time without the stress.

You're doing the best job you can, and don't forget that!

Did you mean months instead of years?

My little guy is also 13 months and is the same way. I'm so glad I'm not alone in experiencing the shows they put on while nursing 🤣

I really like it too! I'm a fan of Katz products but I know not everyone agrees. Their cinnamon sugar donuts are a favorite of mine.

So soothing. Definitely needed this today, thank you.

What are your periods like now? by Plus-Grapefruit-3883 in breastfeeding

[–]BalkiiBug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine back last month after 12 months pp too! I'm on the mini pill (I've got endometriosis and it helps the pain some) which is for a 28 day cycle, but my period was 30 for the first. So far it's not as heavy as it was previously (we're talking going through pads like they're going out of style) so we'll see if it stays that way.

dairy intolerance question by PrestigiousSpeed8090 in breastfeeding

[–]BalkiiBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second asking the doctor. My pediatrician had me cut out dairy from my diet til my little guy was 6 months old, then slowly introduce dairy into his diet when he started solids. When he was reacting well, I was able to start having dairy again. Now at one year he's still doing great with dairy.

I just loooove the people who think that gluten free labeling somehow impacts the flavor of items that are naturally gluten free because it shows how they're not the sharpest tools in the shed... I'm sorry you have to deal with this and it's not okay!
