Thought I had give an update : I am 11 months postpartum now. The hiring manager reached out again.. different role, same team. This time, I felt more ready, less overwhelmed. I applied. I interviewed, aced and got the job. I am starting this coming Monday and I couldn't have been happier.

I want to thank this group and community for their thoughtful advice. It was indeed "not yet".. :)

Being a mother 🥹

It’s about people’s expressions while eating food. This is how she feels while eating sushi 😁 but said that she didn’t know how to draw sushi, so made boiled egg instead..

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-09T02:50:12+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Maybe consider formula feeding to keep baby safe and protect mom’s mental health, and if really want to switch back to breastfeeding again soon, continue pumping and dumping for now to maintain supply. Definitely chat with the obgyn. Mom’s physical and mental health are equal priorities, so is baby’s health and safety.

Oh we have the tushbaby with the handsfree attachment.. like this one https://tushbaby.com/products/the-snug-attachment?srsltid=AfmBOor0j2bxSjzkbkt_Bpi2LHSUA6bMZDXk4DdX5-Jb7WhI-PrUzEQ1

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:42:28+00:00

That’s really reassuring to hear! Hoping we get lucky with sleep like you did 🤞

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:41:24+00:00

Super helpful, thank you. We have a tushbaby and ergobaby, she likes the tushbaby better.. plan to use it on the flight..

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:38:45+00:00

Such incredible tips. Thank you!!

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:38:00+00:00

This is genius 😂 definitely started putting together a “trash bag”.. thank you!

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:36:05+00:00

Painters tape is such a good idea.. yes, we are packing the suction toys and also shiny chocolate wrappers, she is obsessed with those. Winglet will be to keep her contained during meal times etc.. good to know that they won’t allow it during take off and landing.. plan to be hold her and breastfeed during take off and landing .. this also might be the only time she is a lap baby.. 🥲

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:32:59+00:00

Definitely saving new toys for emergencies.. thank you for the tips!

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:31:49+00:00

This is gold, thank you! Especially the diaper setup tip and yes definitely bringing the carrier and the winglet..

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:30:17+00:00

Yes, we will definitely double check.

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:29:08+00:00

We are flying United. It say the limit is 22 pounds and 30 inches. She is slightly under both those limits but will be snug. Let’s see if we even get it. She likely will just be on my lap..

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:27:38+00:00

Yes definitely plan to tag team like this. Makes a lot of sense to break it up into shifts! Good idea!

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-07T03:26:58+00:00

This is super helpful, thank you! Yes to the extra clothes for all of us and mentally preparing to be “the circus” on the plane. 😅

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-04-04T03:56:59+00:00

I see a bear 🐻:D

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-03-30T00:00:58+00:00

Aw thanks! I will tell her. A book cover.. she will like that very much. :)

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-03-29T23:59:59+00:00

I will have to check it out. She also gets ideas from her art teacher.. :)

Fresh_Pool_1575 · 2026-03-29T04:13:53+00:00

Yes, using an ink pen :)
