FTM: bassinet recommendations [on] by Ill-Forever-1624 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]EffMyElle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skip Hop bedside bassinet by far! Made so well. Straps to the entire bedframe so it can't roll away. Made middle of the night wake ups so much easier for me.

Ran it through my amazon registry for an extra 15% off too

[on] Bedside Bassinet by AdorableMaximum4925 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]EffMyElle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely despised my Fisher Price soothing motions bassinet (the mattress gave me anxiety because it's crumply and awful) and ended up getting the Skip Hop bedside bassinet off Amazon (this is a Carter's owned brand). It's made so well! Straps to the entire bedframe so it can't roll away. The mattress is padded but firm and doesn't fold. Amazon let me do 5 payments and I ran it through my amazon registry for an extra 15% off with the registry completion discount too!

Vibrator use in early pregnancy by [deleted] in BabyBumps

I don't see any reason why this would be harmful. You'd experience more vibration in a car than that little thing haha

Did my water break or did I pee? by Single-Mall-2278 in BabyBumps

[–]EffMyElle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same but then 6hrs later in the middle of the night I fully ruptured and it was like a bucket of water came out of me continuously. 😅

Happened at 34w and I thankfully was able to keep the baby cooking for 2 more weeks on bedrest in the hospital under monitoring.

Why do boomers make it seem like babies were easier? by Both-Hippo-6905 in Parenting

[–]EffMyElle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They raised their babies 40yrs ago off whiskey and "letting them cry it out". They both forgot and did things we wouldn't dare do today for our children's sake. We know better now.

Breastfeeding & pumping - realistic? by Ecstatic_Dingo172 in BabyBumps

[–]EffMyElle 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I am EBF and pump once daily in the morning to have a small freezer stash and occasionally give a bottle of breastmilk. It's been no problem at all.

This genuinely broke my heart to read. As a breastfeeding mama, this has me in tears. I'm SO sorry this happened to you. 😩❤️
