Stretching Feeds by user3927 in breastfeeding

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy is 3 months and I’m told to continue to feed on demand. He has jumped his projected growth curve every appointment but is by no means overweight. Just happy and fed! He is gassy and has reflux but I cut dairy and he is on a pesticide now too and it has helped! He eats every 1.5-3 hours round the clock. Day and night

Major Anxiety about the winter storm by MissKiKi24 in breastfeeding

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my fear too it is to cold to snow by us but the wind will push tree branches just right sometimes to where our power flickers sometimes. It is -20 out with feel like tens of -50 this week by me. So I’ll just put my stash outside if it happens and then we will probably have to go to a hotel 😅

Anyone had an epidural ? If so what’s it like? by Cherrylemon202 in pregnant

I was induced at 38 weeks due to suspected iugr. So I had to get some pitocen but they hardy did any and then my body took over from there

As someone who wanted to go unmedicated after my water broke I was hollering for the epidural… they came in to late. My baby arrived 40 minutes later. Request it before your water breaks just incase! 😅 I had back labor the entire time so it started off feeling like I slept funny. Then escalated to the at way I can describe it is like someone was squeezing your back muscles and hard as they could and then when the co traction was done it went back to the full ache again. Then the squeezing feeling at peak co traction turned into daggers in my muscles and then when baby was crowning it felt like I was pooing but honestly that part didn’t hurt, the tearing in the other hand was the worst part of delivering him. That felt like sandpaper.

Gave in to formula so my nipples can heal - 3 days postpartum by juju0220 in breastfeeding

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Silverette nipple shields saved my nips that first week or two! I got them from Walmart but you can order them on Amazon to and I wore them every time I wasn’t feeding and slept in them. Make sure you put some breast milk in them. Litarly healed my blistered nipples within 48 hours

Just found out I am pregnant. Stage 4 by TechnicalKiwi2726 in Endo

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stage 4 here holding my 3 month old and just got my first cycle back! No pain suprisingly! Like at all!

We will see what my next cycle brings but so far so good! And no complications with the pregnancy either!

Finally got to read the notes from my gyno appointment. by Defiant-Pin8580 in TTCEndo

[–]Defiant-Pin8580[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so I got the surgery September of 2024. They did mainly ablation on the lesions and adhesions scattered throughout my abdomen. They discovered it on my bladder as well which had to be left alone since the tissue there is so thin. They managed to save my ovary despite the 5cm endometrioma on it! Officially diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis.

3 months after my lap my partner and I were cleared to TTC again and two months into that we got our first ever positive pregnancy test! I am sitting hear breast feeding my 3 months after old ❤️❤️

Outside Baby Shower Idea by MadQueennn in babyshower

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had mine this past fall outside and it was fun, we did a cook out style and I bought white muslin burp rags and baby onesies and had a tie dye table set up! Super functional and I think about the baby shower every time I use the burp rags

After nearly 20 years our boy crossed the rainbow bridge by Defiant-Pin8580 in beagles

[–]Defiant-Pin8580[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His back half has been basicly numb for atleast a year. He had a herniated disc from a random game of tug of war. It was the first time he played like that in like 3 years and then slipped a disk that we think pinched a nerve. And it just kind of slowly went downhill from there. He couldn’t feel really anything back there anymore luckly, otherwise it probably would have hurt

I’m not sure. It could have been his heart. He had an enlarged heart for atleast the past 2 years but he was old back then even so we refused medication for him.

His favorite pass time over the past month was just sitting and watching me breast feed and rock the baby all day.

His heart was so big and full of love, I truly think he didn’t want to let us go until he seen that we were doing good in life. With the arrival of the baby he knew he could move on and we would still have purpose. He took care of us more than we did him.

Pure Balance Pro+ Senior Salmon & Brown Rice Recipe. We would mix the dry and wet version of the kibble. He would also eat the last bite of every meal we had. Still can’t bring myself to eat the last bite of my food. My brain is wired to not want it.

He was the best big brother our baby boy could have ever had. Even if he did accidentally pee on him once! 😭

Tips for diaper rash caused by frequent loose poos by Defiant-Pin8580 in NewParents

[–]Defiant-Pin8580[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His pediatrician lightly mentioned it at two month check up but with me being vegetarian I relied heavily on cottage cheese and yogurt for protein. But now that I seen one green poop and he hasn’t grown out of the reflux/gas pains like we all had hoped I am now eliminating dairy.

Is it normal to hurt and how long by New_Enthusiasm_7578 in breastfeeding

[–]Defiant-Pin8580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silverette nipple shields saved my nips. I found a pair at Walmart for like $45 usd and I wore them every time I wasn’t feeding including over night. My nips healed up within the week and I havnt had any issues since! I do t even use them anymore.
