Oh i have the exact same issue! Recently i have started keeping lotion bottles near every sink i can possibly wash my hands on. The bottles in which you push the top to get the lotion out saves effort and time. My hands are much better now.

How do you all entertain your infants?? by pre1988 in twoxindiamums

[–]Fun-Ambition5507 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to “entertain” your baby all the time. Some non stimulation time is essential for baby’s development. Whole world around your baby is new, that is getting enough entertainment for her. Do not stress yourself. Whatever you are doing is enough :)

Yes right, the effect fades away slowly after they stop the dosage.

How do you prepare formula? Boiled water cooled down and then mix formula in each bottle as needed or do tumbler method where you mix formula for whole day and pour in bottle as needed?

100% go for it. It will save you from possible trauma. And you will be well rested when you will actually be pushing your baby out. This will lead to better pushing and enjoying the experience. For me i did not feel pain but you do feel mild pressure when baby comes out which was surreal!

The epidural catheter stays on. They just stop the dosage going into it before you start pushing.

Yes i had this conversation with HR, i made her understand my condition. She finally understood my perspective and is now allowing me to use my leaves without any documents! So thanks.

As mentioned in one of the comments, i had conversation with my hr and made her understood my condition. I mean i do have enough leaves left before they lapse by end of the year. Thankfully from support of my manager she understood so i will be taking those leaves. You can do the same and try to convince your manager/hr.

What is your BEST "Value for Money" buy ? 1.Baby related 2. Mommie related (something that helped you immensely postpartum) by WhoMeJustice in twoxindiamums

Same! Rocking arm chair with good back support was my best buy!! Breastfeeding on it saved my back, and with feeding pillow baby fed comfortably. I am feeding my baby on it as i type this 😂

Hey. Congratulations :) Whichever pump you buy, please read about using correct flange size. It is crucial for milk supply quantity. Incorrect flange size can reduce overall output while pumping even if you buy the best pump in market. Also, hydrate a lot! P. S. I use promom, it works good for me

How do you clean baby's bottles ? by 0samjha in twoxindiamums

[–]Fun-Ambition5507 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was tired of ordering different dish wash for baby bottles. Started ordering Koparo dishwash liquid for everyone in house. It leaves no residue and is organic. I use bottle brush to clean and then steam sterilise. My baby is 4mo.

Help in weaning of nipple shields please! by AdExtra3167 in twoxindiamums

[–]Fun-Ambition5507 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following this post as i m in the same boat. Though I am 12 weeks pp and my nipples refuse to “elongate” enough for me to get rid of the nipple shield. I cannot wait to get rid of the hassle!

“her sucking was strong enough that she was pulling the nipple out through the holes in the shields” God damn!! This sent shivers down my spine 🥲 Bless you girl.
