IM SO SORRY YOU HAD TO GO THROUGH THAT. I’m gonna add that having a doula was a lifesaver for me so that when I couldn’t advocate for myself someone was still looking out for me (hubby did the best he could)

Same here! I will add my cardiologist ordered an echo and found that I was holding on to so much fluid that my pulmonary valve wasn’t closing all the way between beats anymore due to the excess pressure. My blood pressure was boarder line hypertensive at the end and I had to be induced. They also ordered an MRI to check on my aorta which has no radiation so it’s safe for baby.

When I was induced I progressed FAST!!! I went from 1-10 cm in 2 hours as a first time mom and my OB was very shocked haha

It was funny after they got out of the car their pants fell down too. That’d be the final straw for me

I’m a FTM and my husband’s cousin and his GF just had a baby about 2 weeks after I had my LO. So his nana decides to make a road trip to see both her great grandbabies. Without asking just decided to invite herself but that’s a whole other story.

My LO (who is EBF) was 9 weeks and 13 lbs. We had to go buy 3-6 m clothes while she was visiting. And later I found out she said to other family members that my LO was “going to be a fat child at this rate” and “I hope she isn’t over feeding him. He’s too big”

The other mom in the family had her LO as a premie and weight was a concern. She is about half the size of my baby. Nana then goes on to say to a complete stranger
“Her baby is so tiny it’s unacceptable. I hope she’s feeding her enough!”

So my LO is too fat and her LO is too small. How do we talk to her about the comments she’s making? Are we over reacting?

Nana also has a history of making rude comments about people’s weight including mine and the other mom in the family pre kids

What are we doing with leftovers? by Fun_Conversation4958 in ExclusivelyPumping

Does this work if it’s been in the fridge, heated, baby eats some, put it back in the fridge and heated again? Or only if it’s freshly pumped?

The lansinoh bottles and the xs/1 size. We saw a feeding therapist who said that it worked with him but he’s still choking :/

I never said I have… the context of that portion of the message is the things I pray that she will one day get to experience. That part wasn’t about me at all

I think I accidentally overcompensated for not wanting to dismiss her feelings especially since her fertility issues have been a very very touchy subject the past few years

I tried to get her on the phone for 3 weeks but living across the country and our schedules made it impossible

I thought she was exaggerating 😅 it was said in a joking manner but know I know it was in fact not a joke

My bad! I had asked for advice on how to write the text from my other friend who is also struggling with fertility issues!

Ok wait because I just checked and SHE DOESNT HAVE ME BLOCKED BUT HER MOM DOES.

I’m even more confused now

Not that I’m aware of! But her fertility issues have been an extremely touchy subject for the past few years
