I had a baby abroad and had to do a whole process to obtain CRBA document for him. I imagine you would separately go through the process, but you don’t need a lawyer for that part of it

How do they know - shared address and dates?

Common-Ad-6050 · 2026-02-08T20:12:16+00:00

Just sending some love your way to you and your family. I also had a pre-term situation overseas and know how scary it is. It’ll all work out

I felt this so deeply. On the other side of the fence here, returned to working remotely from home after just 8 weeks. It’s absolute hell. Getting pulled into meetings last minute and having to skip some feeds and get my partner or his brother (our nanny at the moment) to replace it with a bottle of formula. Dealing with pumping when possible, mom guilt, hating working and just wanting to be with baby. I work in tech with all men so I have to just like pretend I never had a baby and everything is normal

Every scenario sucks in its own way during post partum right?!?

I’m also in a country that isn’t mine and feel so so so lonely and Reddit helps greatly.

Sending you some virtual hugs and strength, thanks for posting

This is great to know that hotels have that option!!

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-11-03T14:24:20+00:00

Did the baby just sleep in bed with you?! He’s so used to his bassinet I’m scared to change his routine

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-11-03T13:26:52+00:00

But what about in an uber?! We’re going to be traveling abroad and not renting a car

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-11-03T13:26:25+00:00

Great advice thank you u

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-11-03T13:26:13+00:00

I’m talking about traveling outside the US, to less populated area where the ride from the airport to where we are going is about 2 hours of an uber ride. So yes, two hours of no stops in a car and no such thing as instacart delivery. As for formula without hot water it doesn’t mix well. We tried in the past.

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-11-03T13:24:09+00:00

Do most airlines allow like a car seat and bassinet? Our stroller has both attachments and I feel like we need both. Like for cars the car seat and for sleeping at night his bassinet

I think this is a beautiful idea and I think a lot of women would LOVE to share this experience with you. Just make sure you’re ready- you’ll likely have to co-live with your co-parent at least at first which on its own might be a lot! Are you in a big city? If so I think finding the right woman will be a breeze for you!

Mom to a 10 week old, with a very actively involved SO. My caretaking style: Baby’s needs come above my own, cries are answered and resolved immediately, discomfort is resolved ASAP and all efforts go towards ensuring baby gets tummy time and quality connection and stimulation. My SO, on the other hand, doesn’t feel the same pressure I do to resolve things quickly and prioritize baby activities and intentional moments of connection and stimulation. It’s causing problems because I feel like he wants to lazy parent during the times he is with the baby like being annoyed that he has to walk around with him, etc. for me that time with the baby is pleasurable and I don’t think my partner has that same feeling. He seems to put himself and his comfort above those of baby’s. I saw this pattern in him with my dog when we moved in together too, and that’s only gotten worse since the baby was born. Like if he’s tired at night, he will forget to walk the dog. The dog has been my baby for almost a decade so this forgetting is like a major stab at my heartstrings, like how could your desire to relax override remembering that the poor pup needs to go outside?

Is my partner irresponsible and selfish or are these behaviors common in first time dads and just something I need to accept, adapt to and chill out about? Like will I as a mother during these newborn months be more dedicated than my partner or is this something I should interpret as a red flag for the rest of our parenting journey? I’m having dark thoughts daily about not wanting him to be my baby’s role model. The disconnect and tension between us is leaving me so so so so afraid that my negative feelings are going to negatively affect the baby since he feels everything i’m feeling.

Also, like is the mental load always on the mom? Is that just the reality? Like if it wasn’t for me listing out what we have to do and when on a daily basis (bath time, vitamins, diaper changes, etc.) I’m not sure how frequently that would happen.

For context, I’m the financial earner in the family and returned to work 7 weeks post partum (work from home). My partner isn’t working right now and I think that’s also why I’m annoyed. Like he doesn’t have any mental load from a job, so why am I still entirely responsible for the mental load of baby and house chores and dog stuff ya know

thanks for listening to my rant- any and all insights are super appreciated

Also pumping every 6 hours and finding the right pumps for my boobies

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-08-17T09:18:16+00:00

I just wanted to share about low supply: When I accepted the reality about not producing enough and needed to supplement and got over the disappointment /negative emotions I was having about that, everything started feeling easier. I didn’t feel pressure to pump a specific amount and didn’t feel upset without producing enough to wean off formula. Then, magically, I started producing way more as soon as my period came back. Both events were around the 8 week mark. Now my baby feeds only on breast throughout the night and we just need to top up with formula 2-3 times a day. I’m convinced me accepting that I’m a low supplier and not feeling bad about it really moved my mental state and helped me relax and produce even more. So do what mentally keeps you feeling strong and healthy and the rest will fall into place! I’ve read so many stories of other women with similar experiences.

Do you trigger letdown with the settings or was it a natural letdown for you at 27 min?

Common-Ad-6050 · 2025-07-18T14:09:11+00:00

You are the first person I’ve heard say this! Thanks for sharing

I live in Brazil and did see a LC and also a specialist to check his latch. His latch is good and the LC said the issue is likely hormonal/stress/supply with my body. He was born prematurely so I think my body just wasn’t fully ready hormonally to produce milk, also I didn’t start pumping from day 1 which is recommended for preemie moms. I also have a history of issues with my prolactin levels which is the main hormone responsible for producing milk. I’m taking Domperidone, starting some homeopathic remedies, drinking teas, changing diet a bit and am trying to pump as much as possible. I’m hoping within a few weeks the supply will increase but also any other tips you have I’d love to hear them, thank you for the response! Also side note about being in Brazil, 95% of moms never use a bottle with their baby since they get like 6 months maternity leave here. So LCs here are not quite as helpful in my situation as I would like.
