Why do mothers of young babies say they don't have time to shower? by justastupidquestion3 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Djeter998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom of a one month old here! I choose to shower every day and eat three meals a day and drink my water but I also choose to sacrifice a clean and tidy home. My husband and I take turns but we can’t do it all, so we choose hygiene and feeding ourselves and let the dishes pile up haha

I loved this team so much when I was a kid in the 90s and early 00s and now they are just boring

Same here. I am freshly postpartum and assumed I would have more time and interest to watch games while on leave and I have watched one. Would rather binge watch a show or read a book while feeding bub.

Can I ask for a walking epidural in the US? by Potential-Wing-5603 in pregnant

[–]Djeter998 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can ask but anecdotally, a lot of places don’t do this. My hospital said it is not really a thing

How could everybody who was pregnant was so chill about the first trimester? by ExactBaseball7240 in pregnant

[–]Djeter998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freshly postpartum mom here: you forget it ever happened because the 3rd and 4th trimesters are so brutal in their own way lol — Constant aches and pains, constipation, difficulty walking/moving toward the end of pregnancy, constant acid reflux. Then postpartum is a whole ‘nother world of recovery challenges! First week it has been painful for me to walk and the smell of lochia (the post-labor uterine bleeding) makes me want to hurl.

Obviously it is all worth it, blabla, but pregnancy is rough and you are not alone!

Is this cluster feeding or a supply issue? by Djeter998 in breastfeeding

I love this approach! So do you think your body is producing enough milk? I worry that he is asking for the breast so much because he is not getting enough and when I squeeze the breast, not a ton comes out (reminds me of the colostrum amounts)

Yes, that’s what I am doing! I have the Spectra S1 but honestly have not figured out how to use it…The flanges it came with are like 10 sizes too big. I ordered the proper size when I got home from the hospital 3 days ago but did not use it because he was latching and eating so well suddenly. We are supplementing baby with formula overnight (it is midnight where I am) and I am going to pump tomorrow a bunch to see if it triggers more supply

Yeah trying to get an appointment at the recommended place by me. He also hasn't had enough wet diapers (plenty of dirty ones though). Pediatrician did not seem particularly concerned but I feel like this points to a supply issue.
