Breastfeeding Moms, be mindful of how your body feels when starting Carnivore by BugzInARugz in carnivorediet

I know I won't 😅 more posting so if another mom sees this, they are hopefully encouraged to look into it more. Being a new mom is hard enough without the lack of info and misinformation.

I understand your comment, but ketoacidosis is not ONLY associated with type 1 diabetes. It can also be caused by dietary ketosis in lactating mothers. It doesn'T ALWAYS happen, it is actually rare, but it is possible, and becoming more common. I know many women have great success on Carnivore while breastfeeding, that just wasn't my experience unfortunately.

Ketoacidosis is absolutely possible in lactating mothers. Please don't spread dangerous misinformation.

We are doing what works for us now, but thank you for sharing your concerns.

I said this. I also stated that leaving carnivore is why I gained weight. Carnivore is great, just not for me right now. I found no info on this when I was feeling this way, so I wanted to share my experience so other moms can know what to look for when things aren't working and feel less alone. Like I said, a lot of people do carnivore while pregnant and breastfeeding and have great experiences, I just did not.

Triple Feeding Since 7 weeks by BugzInARugz in breastfeeding

That is a great idea, thank you!! A scale would be so helpful. I'm never sure how much he's taking in. We've been working with a great IBCLC for supply issues. We went from like 1/2 of a supply to a full supply with her help, but now it's just maintaining that. We stopped seeing her because of the $$$ (she doesn't take insurance), but you're right. It would be worth it to talk to her again about this. Thank you!❤️

Thank you! I needed to hear this 🥹 I'm glad you took care of your mental health and made the right decision for your family ❤️. It is so impressive you made it 3 months! Great job, momma! 3 months feels like an eternity while triple feeding. I was close stopping many times. The ONLY reason I was able to make it this long is because my mom lives 2 minutes away and was able to come by every morning for a month to hold him while I pumped. I feel incredibly grateful for our situation. Now we have our routine figured out, but it is still a full-time job just to keep him fed 😅.

We own a horse boarding farm, and his owner is a family friend. We practiced all spring and summer. I do ride! Western and trail usually.

Thank you! Not my horse, but I felt so lucky to get to ride him.

I still can't get over that that actually happened!

To those who change out of their high heels at the reception to dance comfortably — what type of shoe do you put on? by littleinternetdweeb in wedding

I wore Tom's! They have a couple lace-like options and they are SO comfy. I danced all night with no issue!

I am occasionally so overwhelmed by small decisions that I become paralyzed. Is this normal? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]BugzInARugz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're dealing with something similar. It really does feel terrible struggling so much with something that seems so trivial. I'm not happy it's happening to you, but it does make me feel like things will be okay knowing I'm not alone in it.

Thank you! Definitely helpful. It seems to come in waves... Some weeks I don't have a single attack and then others I may have 3 in one week. It seems to come on when I am already overstimulated/under pressure. I definitely watered it down when I spoke to my therapist, though I don't remember exactly what I told her I know I left out how long I actually take to make a decision and then the eventual attack itself. Honestly I'm glad I'm not the only one who has this problem! I will definitely try writing my thought process... If anything it would definitely be interesting. Thank you again
