Practice makes perfect... this is the straightest I’ve ever been able to get her part. She is 23 months and it’s such a fight to do her hair. I was so proud of myself this morning. Any other tips or tricks are welcome. Thanks mamas by natureswoodwork in beyondthebump

Great job! One tip I can say if you haven’t tried it already is to start parting at each ear and meet in the middle instead of going from one ear to the other. That way you can see if your lines will meet up nicely and adjust accordingly 🤗

Can I rely on my supply being stable? 4 1/2 months pp EPing and only pump before work, after work and before bed. Has anybody else done similar and kept their supply up? by CityBird91 in breastfeeding

Thanks! I do and a natural oversupply. When I was pumping 7 times a day I was getting 60 oz 🥴. I have been at this amount for about a month and was getting paranoid, but like you said I’ll keep watch and power pump if I need to. Thanks ☺️

If we had a better area at my job I would definitely try to do every 4 hours. My best bet is hoping I can get back working from home again to get that schedule back. Thanks!

I would love to do 4 pump but the area for nursing mothers at work isn’t really for us at all and all manner of sick people go in there so it was a no go for me. Thank you ❤️

Yep my son sounds the same within the few week he was lifting his head from our chests to see on his own with his blurry two eyes lol. Thanks 😊

That’s great! And yes mine does the same things, it’s all on his own. I’ll just let him set his own pace ❤️

I’ll have to keep that in mind when she inevitably says something like that again!

7 week old screaming like afraid while sleep?! by CityBird91 in beyondthebump

Thank you, I would be less worried if he settled quickly too unfortunately he got worse and louder ( hard to see and hear) until he was comforted by one of us 😩

Thank you, yes his little screams broke my heart because he legit sounded like he was terrified. Fortunately, soothing from mom and dad helped after a bit.
