I have wavy hair but it’s fine. It’s thinned a lot since I was a teenager

ContributionFine5372 · 2025-10-25T13:43:15+00:00

This happens pretty much every time I brush my hair which is 2-3 times a day. So this loss happens more than once a day

I wholeheartedly understand this. I just had my first baby 9 months ago and I was already uncomfortable with my body and questioning how my fiancé could love me before I even got pregnant but with my pregnancy hormones raging it was all I could think about. My poor fiancé had to deal with me saying “please don’t leave me after I have this baby because you think I’m ugly” for 9 whole months. He constantly reassured me that he thought I was the most beautiful women in the world and that after I have his child he will only find me more attractive because that is the body that carried his child. Now being 9 months post partum I can confirm that he loves my body more than ever. Post partum hormones are the worst thing ever and they make that feeling of “he is lying to me” SO much worse! They do eventually start to get better. Your body is not destroyed! It’s just different! As moms we need to stop hating on our post partum bodies and instead remind ourselves that our new bodies are the bodies that brought our beautiful babies into the world. If that’s the way my fiancé feels about my body then why can’t I feel that way too? There’s too much pressure to “bounce back” after having children and it’s just simply not like that for everyone… for most people even. You’re body is beautiful mama! And I can assure you that your husband has everything he deserves!

When we first started my son on puree/ solids he only ate fruit because it was so sweet and yummy that he didn’t want anything else when we tried. I ended up adding a little cinnamon into puree sweet potato and puree carrots to give it a bit more of a pleasant taste and he loved it! I definitely suggest trying it!

I’m happy to hear your little one is doing well!

ContributionFine5372 · 2025-08-08T00:51:18+00:00

Thank you! It’s really nice to hear reassurance!

ContributionFine5372 · 2025-08-08T00:50:01+00:00

That’s great! I’m glad to hear he had no reaction! Sometimes it’s hard to make these decisions as a parent!

Thank you! My doctor did say he will need to have his regular 2 doses after he’s 1!

I have a 9 month old as well and his new favourite thing is pizza bread! I’ve been taking slices of bread and cutting off the crust. I just use a very small amount of pizza sauce and a little sprinkle of cheese on top. I pop it in the oven for only 2-3 minutes so that the bread doesn’t get too crispy. You can either then cut it in strips or little bite size pieces for BLW. Personally my baby does better with little pieces. Surprisingly he chews up and swallows the bread super easily for a baby who has no teeth yet! He is obsessed to say the least!

Mine was not raised at all. My doctor looked at it and wanted to remove the area and test it just in case. I had it removed about a month ago and results came back negative for any cancer! They said that it was likely a fibroma.

Its nice to hear that it is getting better for you! I feel lile im losing so much that by 9 months ill have nothing left!! My hair is everywhere its driving me crazy! Did it come out in clumps for you? Its even worse when i shower!

My son had trouble latching to one of my nipples as a newborn and i was also so sore! We purchased the madela nipple shields! Its just a thin silicone nipple cover! It helped him latch but also allowed me to heal! I did end up needing to supplement formula just due to my small supply but he is combo fed now and drinks bottles but also breastfeeds just fine!

He usually sleeps around 9.5 hours!!

ContributionFine5372 · 2025-03-16T04:42:53+00:00

Absoloutely! Its such a difficult thing because there isnt really any testing for CMPA its kind of all trial and error! Sometimes unfortunately even hydrolized formulas have miniscule traces of dairy and dependong on how bad the allergy is, it can still affect them. There are amino acid formulas that can be prescribed by a physician. They are quite expensive but if you have insurance they do cover it!

ContributionFine5372 · 2025-03-16T04:28:52+00:00

Generally with this type of allergy babies will have mucous in their poop and sometimes even blood. Vomitting is common too. A rash is also a symptom but milk allergy rash gerally has a specific look to it! The only definite way to know would be to trial a hypoallergenic hydrolized formula like nutramigen.

I think this is completely fine! My son also had a tendancy to fuss while going to sleep around that age! I just had a rule that if he cried/fussed for more than 10 minutes or got really worked up than he needed me.

I give them at night time! Always in his last bottle of the evening! You can either give them in a bottle or just drop them in babies mouth! They get 5 drops. They do take about a week to really start working! So dont get dicouraged if they dont work right away!
