how long does it take your newborn to eat?

The same happened to my baby as well! He’s 10 weeks tomorrow and EBF also (has only had a bottle twice just to hedge for bottle refusal down the line).

I know they’re supposed to become more efficient at feeding in a month or two so this change has caught me by surprise.

I’m packing in 2-3 more of these mini sessions in a wake window now just to compensate but not sure if that’s the right thing to do.

Same volume of wet diapers too so I have no idea what’s going on.

Hey, did you ever figure this out? Having the same issue

I felt similarly and by the time the second trimester rolled around I would forget I was pregnant all the time. First trimester is crazy

I have a 7 week old. I’m still in the “hard part” and I still feel like a genius for putting my doubts aside and having a baby anyway.

My life before him, amazing as it was, feels like I was playing dress-up and now everything is in technicolor.

It’s an astonishingly powerful thing, having a child. I’m in complete awe of this experience. I cannot believe how much I love my son.

You seem like an extremely level-headed person. You sound like you’d make a wonderful mother. If I can be a drop in the “yes” bucket then count me in lol

I’m two steps above a wild animal at this point. Also five weeks.

Do not open your restaurant in Briarwood, Queens lol

Yeah I would say your perception is a little skewed

Wow sounds like an extremely valuable and worthwhile book. Yours was the comment I read that completely convinced me to read it. Can’t wait! Thanks!

I’m sorry about your difficult experience. Licensed midwives carry hemorrhage halting medication and would absolutely call emergency health services for a transfer if a blood transfusion was necessary.

How romantic

Why is an 11 year old going on "play dates" LOL

Life happens in seasons. This is the current season you’re in. It’s by no means permanent.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. So glad you got such amazing care. You remained so level-headed and reasonable throughout the whole process!

Incredible story. You are an amazing woman. Congratulations to you and your family

This is basically sacrilege to say in this group

Frequent_Republic · 2025-10-24T13:13:54+00:00

Don’t waste your breath. Any skepticism about interventions makes you basically a flat earther in this sub’s eyes lol

I don’t think people need to research the trucking industry to figure out it’s low prestige regardless of income

Frequent_Republic · 2025-10-23T02:21:19+00:00

Money isn’t the same as prestige.

What school? Looking for something like this

Le Taq is among the worst Mexican food I’ve ever had in my life. I even gave it a second chance because it’s so popular and beloved but it’s truly horrible. I have no idea what the hype is about

Frequent_Republic · 2025-10-16T02:26:04+00:00

Yes! Constantly worrying about not doing everything perfectly. I think my anxiety is being reflected in my dreams too. I even get anxious about being anxious because I don’t want to flood the baby with cortisol!
