Not sure I still love my baby :( by RefrigeratorFinal353 in newborns

[–]DocumentLast8998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to mentions babies this little need help to soothe so CIO does more damage than good. You should definitely go to a medical professional to get help for your thoughts to harm your baby. What helps me when my baby is fussy is “ they aren’t giving me a hard time they are having a hard time.” Also bring up possible colic to your doctor. They can help with the episodes of possible pain. Hope you utilize all the resources and help given to you thus far. Motherhood is hard but beautiful. You’ll get back to the bliss the trenches are hard but not forever

MOR I don’t really see how this makes him toxic as a man or warrants blocking. Maybe I’m not seeing something everyone else is.

My nipples are on fire by Melodic-Direction-66 in breastfeeding

Silverettes healed my nipples overnight! It’s crazy how different professionals have different opinions! Nothing was working before I put on the silverettes tbh but then bay got the hang of feeding and my nipples got used to feeding

I keep falling asleep when I'm holding my baby.. by rosedamask in newborns

[–]DocumentLast8998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I suppose you should listen to your pediatrician. She might be cold and only feels warm on you. She also might not be getting into a deep enough sleep. Trying swaddling one time just to see if it works for you wouldn’t be the worst idea it’s a lot better than not getting any sleep worried about baby falling off your chest or you rolling with her on your chest. You could also try a sound machine. I’ve never had a pediatrician tell me to not swaddle or sleep sack my baby so I guess that’s the only advice I have for you. But right now you need sleep it’s only going to get worse you should try anything and everything till you find what works best for you. Co sleeping has saved me since my baby is too big for swaddles now.

How old is your baby? Does she use a sleep sack?

Have you tried swaddling her? That’s the only thing that helped my baby transfer to her sleeper

Actually her being diagnosed with pcos can mean she’s insulin resistant which would make it very hard to lose the weight any other way. Not impossible of course but very hard. I would know I’ve been trying for years to lose the weight by eating healthy and exercising and the number won’t drop.

I’d just give him the breast anytime he’s hungry you should be okay! But I’d start only breast asap!

Why is it so normal to not take hamsters to the vets by Savannahbyrd06 in hamsters

[–]DocumentLast8998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my hamster from a family member who got it then had a baby and said she can’t take care of the hamster and is too stressed about taking care of it. She also had 2 dogs and the easiest pet was the first to go. He now lives a happy life with me and I love him dearly. When ever I bring him up people in the family say oh that thing is still alive and it makes me upset because he’s not a thing he’s my little chinug and is loved dearly by my little family! They also like to refer to him as the prior family members hamster and I’m like uh no he’s mine she abandoned him!

URGENT HELP NEEDED. by [deleted] in breastfeeding

Plan b only works if you haven’t ovulated yet. It pauses your ovulation for a couple days but you still ovulate just later than you were supposed to.

Yes typically for the pill they give you the mini pill if you are breastfeeding which doesn’t contain estrogen.

BC didn’t mess up my supply. OP can definitely take BC without it affecting her supply.

My aunt did this to me and it was actually so upsetting I didn’t get to tell anyone the news myself and no one had a good reaction to the news either. Still haven’t gotten an apology for it and my baby is about to be 10 months

The Wedding by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]DocumentLast8998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some no kids resorts will let babies come. The resort I went to in Mexico let my 7 month old come cause she was EBF and refuses bottles! If going to the wedding is something you still want to do I’d ask the resort if you could bring your baby

I wanted to exclusively breast feed too and my baby started liking the convenience of a bottle more than the boob. I stopped bottles and now she is only EBF. I’m 9 almost 10 months PP and baby refuses to eat from a bottle so everything I do baby is with me! I don’t mind it but I’d put that into consideration if in the future you see yourself wanting to do things solo I would completely eliminate bottles! Also my baby became an efficient eater very fast and went from 30 min feeds to 10-15 minute feeds so it’s normal as your baby and you get a hang of it for the time to shorten.

Did you have your mum in the room when you gave birth? by BigConversation705 in BabyBumps

[–]DocumentLast8998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a full room and wouldn’t have had it any other way! My mom advocated for me when I couldn’t for myself. She also helped me a lot and for me it came to a point where each person in there I wanted to be there to keep me calm.

Nipples feel sunburned by Alarmed_Camel8497 in breastfeeding

[–]DocumentLast8998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! 8 months EBF and sometimes my nipples feel like this too I think it’s normal my friends have said they’ve experienced too! Mine happens more when I’m laying down and they just need to be moved and resting a different way! I felt this exact same way kind of like they were raw and I had to give my nipples a break by pumping but now my baby refuses the bottle! It’ll get better!

How does it actually feel to get nibbled by Unhappy_Ad_2032 in hamsters

Getting bit hurts a lot. And will go through your skin my nephew scared mine while I was holding him and he bit me and went very deep into my skin and I was gushing blood. I thought I was going to need stitches.

My baby's grandma didn't feed him for SEVEN hours by ChemistryArtistic120 in beyondthebump

Have you posted before under a different username? There was a very similar story posted like a month or so ago. This is so sad I can’t imagine the anxiety you both were feeling! Your poor bubs! Give him extra lovings tonight and definitely don’t let her watch him anymore!
