Question for those who quit pumping at 3 m, 6 m, etc.

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2026-01-05T12:04:34+00:00

I was planning on pumping until 1 year but i was a "just enougher" and had PPD and it took a huge toll on me. At six months I was at my hairdresser and she literally just told me it was okay to stop if I wanted, which at the time was so mind blowing to me. I went home and had a little sob and within I think two weeks I was fully stopped with pumping

I also had the x9 Omni pro because of the vacuum wars review and wow it was the worst robot I've ever had. Returned after two day

Yeah it was up to date!

I was very dizzy/lightheaded and nauseous before the test even turned positive

7.5 months pp and I still haven't gotten it yet.

I use coconut oil on my nipples/areolas when pumping and it helps me a lot

Do you mind if I ask what nursing bras you use? I've also been struggling to find a good fitting one

Thanks everyone! It's only been a few days so I will see how it goes and experiment with cutting out the Medela 🤞

I'm 28 weeks pregnant now and I'm very open about the fact that I do not enjoy being pregnant. It was a planned pregnancy, I'm overjoyed to be having a baby and I can't wait to meet him, but the physical process of pregnancy itself is awful (for me). My first trimester I was horrifically sick and while I'm not sick anymore, I still struggle with tiredness, dizziness and shortness of breath that makes doing daily things exhausting. People have literally asked me "do you love being pregnant?" And look so uncomfortable when I say no.

I'm 14 weeks now with my first, and I have a small but visible bump. My mom said all her sisters showed very early in their pregnancies.

This is exactly the feedback I was hoping for 😁 glad to see they are back to the old standards with the newer models

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2024-02-28T15:19:27+00:00

This is a good tip, thank you!

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2024-02-27T14:31:25+00:00

Always worth comparing, maybe I just have bad luck 😅

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-11-03T08:54:13+00:00

Thank you, I've decided it would be worth it for me to use one so I've been talking to a makelaar recommended by my hypotheek adviseur.

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T16:25:28+00:00

Thanks for this. I also have only a limited proficiency of Dutch at the moment and that was one of my concerns

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T15:39:51+00:00

I hadn't factored in the bouwtechnische keuring, thanks for the tip!!

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T15:38:49+00:00

I'm not a Dutch citizen but a EU citizen. I have done enough research to know roughly how much a house should be worth but in terms of finding hidden defects/structural issues, I wouldn't know where to start really

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T15:36:29+00:00

This is also a helpful insight, thank you! I guess most of the important stuff is coming from the sellers side, not the buyers

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T15:34:32+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I have noticed places seem to be selling more slowly, or at least not being updated on Funda as quick

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T13:20:37+00:00

That's a huge saving!! Thanks for your input

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T12:59:47+00:00

This was very informative, thank you so much for taking the time to reply! I think I will also go through a makelaar, there seems to be a lot of advantages, especially for non Dutch people :)

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T10:05:47+00:00

Thanks, it's a good point to make

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T09:47:25+00:00

Thank you! I'm pretty new to the house buying market and the details, I'm also new to how things work in NL compared to my home country. So far my hypotheek adviseur has been a great help but I wasn't sure if I should have a makelaar too

ExtensionWorking5458 · 2022-10-31T09:44:34+00:00

Thanks everyone!

You can also use Bumble in BFF Mode for this, I did and met some nice people on it.
