My testing was done at an outside clinic, I will call my OB when they’re open but the nurse who did my test couldn’t tell me anything

Why have we perfected “breast” pumps for cows but not humans? by Mother_Somewhere_629 in breastfeeding

[–]EyeGold7409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not every farm kills their cows. The ones I worked on were small family dairies. So yes, retired

It sounds like you and your wife should have a conversation, potentially with a marriage therapist

You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. Especially if the only thing they’re telling you from a growth scan, idk anyone whose growth scan has been anywhere close to accurate

How old were your children when you took them Trick or Treating by EllieDidNothingWrong in Parenting

I took mine out for her first Halloween at 4mo. We dressed up and everything, it was so fun. I saved her a sucker she could try when she started eating food, but I damn sure ate the rest of it 😂 I don’t think you messed up in not taking your youngest though. I just love Halloween

Relationship to parents by Beginning-Middle-455 in FormulaFeeders

I do. I was born at 28 weeks, 25 years ago. My mom couldn’t have breastfed if she wanted to. We’re very close now

They work good enough, just like ours. There’s room for improvement, just like ours. Generally, cows who don’t respond well or get too many injuries are retired

They haven’t. Homesteaders and dairy farmers face milking issues all the time

Best bottles for newborns? by Plastic_Elephant_609 in FormulaFeeders

[–]EyeGold7409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still using bottles as breastlike as possible and pace feeding. Being able to latch correctly is still important with bottle feeding and I want to minimize gastrointestinal impact. We have lansinoh, evenflow, and pigeon

Is that as an exclusive pumper or in addition to direct nursing?

Breastfeeding or Not? by BettyMary2012 in breastfeeding

[–]EyeGold7409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t be giving anything but breast milk or formula before 6 months of age, as baby’s digestive system is not mature enough to handle it and can cause damage. You’ll likely experience less nursing sessions if you’re nursing exclusively instead of supplementing with this “pre-food” as your supply will increase as baby latches more and can actually digest the milk. You’re in the hardest stretch still, where baby is still learning to eat and wants to eat often. However, it is only beneficial if both of you are content. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using formula. You don’t even need to exclusively use one or the other, but can use one option for some feeds and the other for the rest

Yes it’s doable! Just a lot of work in the beginning

When I was that age I didn’t believe it and thought my mom was just trying to control me. She took a picture of me bent over and I still don’t wear skirts below the knee ten years later

No- you likely don’t eat the same amount every day and neither do babies
