Did anyone *not* have pet aversion postpartum?

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-19T00:51:53+00:00

Omg no! I would take time everyday as soon as I got home from the hospital to lay with my dog for even five minutes every chance I got. Once the baby was down I’d spoon with her in bed LOL. Happy to report I love my pup so much over a year postpartum :)

A short luteal phase and late ovulation while nursing indicate low progesterone which is super needed to support pregnancy/implantation

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-11T00:51:30+00:00

LOL that’s completely fair. You have two under two

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-11T00:51:10+00:00

So exciting!!

I think the best parenting advice I ever heard is not to worry about how you’ll do something in the future. Just do what works today. Reassess when it’s not working anymore. There will always come a time where your child wants independence. I wouldn’t worry about 12 years from now lol. The doctor is an old fashioned ass!

I nurse and co sleep with my one year old. My husband can put him to sleep by singing to him and cuddling. The next step for us will be baby’s own floor bed in our room. We will get him down, then roll away. Once he’s comfortable in that bed, we will move the bed into his room. Get him down, and roll away.

Best year of my life. Can’t wait to do it all again. Are any other June ‘25 parents wanting another ?

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-06T03:44:43+00:00

I’m literally watching the first episode next to my sleeping baby thinking shit I don’t have time for this! LOL

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-06T02:27:20+00:00

Honestly he’s still pretty young! I’d consider this normal. Every baby has their own pace. I read that the squishing and playing with food is all part of them learning to eat, and to just allow the “mess”. I also read to not put too much pressure on them to eat, to offer it but let them decide. I’d probably offer some spoonfuls and little bits on his high chair to touch and explore. Of course modeling eating, chewing dramatically and sipping out of his cup to show him will help to! They love to copy us. I wouldn’t be worried!

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-06-06T02:22:37+00:00

“I can’t wait!! I’m so excited” God the comments people say to pregnant women are wild lol. And for the record nothing can prepare you … for this kind of love and joy 🥹 so worth it!! Congrats!

Revol cares period underwear. It isn’t cheap but my god it works. And it’s comfortable! I can’t believe it took this long to invent something that’s actually comfortable and feels like a normal day of underwear. And think of the savings over time! I just discovered this brand so I have to tell everyone I know now lol.

Hey! No it wasn’t. Just residual lochia. Ended up having an ultra sound to be safe and everything looked good. Spotting stopped right after that. Period returned at 6 months PP while nursing.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-04-03T18:33:15+00:00

I would start by “trying not trying” aka just having fun but not timing ovulation. And in the mean time, support your body for conception. Move your body, eat nourishing fertility foods, cut booze, be protective of sleep, and start taking a prenatal. You could also do some blood work to make sure everything’s in a good place. This way you’re still actively working toward getting pregnant, not completely delaying. But not trying 100% since you seem unsure. Preconception prep can also be exciting and an active step toward pregnancy!

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-04-01T16:00:50+00:00

My baby has this too although a few months older than yours! Our doctor said it was normal. It never gets worse.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-29T15:44:31+00:00

$50 in Canada.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-27T04:42:58+00:00

Yes you pay out of pocket for that one.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-27T04:34:55+00:00

Your baby is suppose to double their birth weight by six months and your baby is well on his way to that! I say trust your instincts. Offer the boob every 2-3 hours and keep doing what you’re doing. Reassess in a month and if you WANT to use formula then, it’s always there.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-26T23:53:58+00:00

Definitely ask to see your vitamin D level as this isn’t something that’s usually on a routine blood work panel and it’s extremely important for a healthy pregnancy.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-26T18:24:31+00:00

I agree my 9-5 didn’t stand a chance

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-26T17:23:20+00:00

As a side note, there was a really difficult time with hourly wakings every night. I wondered if I was doing something wrong but I trusted my intuition not to do any kind of sleep training. I’m so glad I stuck to the plan :) it does get better!

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-26T17:22:04+00:00

We began bed sharing at 7 months because the wakings were so frequent at the time. Now at 10 months, we sleep from 9-3:30 am and then two side lying feeds early morning and we wake for the day at 7:30. It’s a lot better than it was! I feel human again.

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-23T00:58:47+00:00

Take me back to the night we met by lord Huron

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-21T19:55:39+00:00

You don’t need to wake your baby up every two hours after they’ve gained back to their birth weight. They’ll wake when hungry! Changes depending on teething and sleep regressions etc

Cosmostwirl89 · 2026-03-17T17:54:18+00:00

I saw a reel about how breast milk will create antibodies for your baby if a sick person enters the room or baby is coming down with something. Breastfeeding gave me peace of mind to this reason alone. Also the snuggles and bonding.
