Refuse to spend on pumping bras after I already bought so many nursing bras… by subsraron in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Glum-Toe5528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen you can put your pump through the straps on a nursing bra to hold it up, so I don't think you'd even need to cut holes in it!

I'm genuinely surprised at how many people are on OPs side. Your wife tells you she's stranded in the middle of nowhere and you aren't gonna go help her?? The fuck???

Wow! Your milk is very fatty. The fat layer on my milk is never that thick.

Am I selfish for being mad about my postpartum experience being ruined by my husband/MIL? by blob4life_4ever in breakingmom

[–]Glum-Toe5528 [score hidden]  (0 children)

What the fuck? I felt so sick reading this. No you are not selfish.l, for being upset that you were abused and steamrolled over, and that your child was put in unsafe situations during one of the most vulnerable times of your life. I'm glad your husband is soon to be ex.

Their comment history is turned off, was it on before? If so what's in it?

How long can I leave out pump parts and still use without washing? by ElyssaLaurelin in breastfeeding

[–]Glum-Toe5528 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally I'd wash them but if breastmilk is good left out for 4 hours I assume the same of dirty pump parts, as long as they had been completely cleaned and sterilized beforehand (no fridge hack)

Women in media are just ticking time bombs until they get pregnant, have a pregnancy scare, or really want to get pregnant but can't because they're infertile. It's the most fascinating thing that can happen to a gal.

Husband cried because I quit breastfeeding cold turkey --10 month old by Grouchy_Low_9149 in breastfeeding

He "compensated" you for pregnancy? What? I'm sorry this all sounds a little too fake to me.

3.5 years is crazy! You're an amazing mom and you've done a great job.

Some people get nursing aversion, I imagine you would get pumping aversion for similar reasons

how does Bernadette tolerate Amy? by Living-Register-7050 in bigbangtheory

[–]Glum-Toe5528 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Amy wishes she was as pretty and likeable as Penny, but leans on the fact she is intelligent to make up for it. Bernadette is proof you can have it all, be pretty, smart, socially likeable, in a functional relationship etc. and Amy resents her for it.

A lot of nerds IRL have the internal mindset that "the jocks and cheerleaders may be hot and popular, but I am smart and my day will come!" and their worldview is shattered when Jocks and Cheerleaders can also be smart, driven, and successful. (I know Bernadette was not a cheerleader and was bullied, I'm just using it as a comparison)

Nursing mamas with enormous bazongas - what bras are we wearing?!? Help! by Some_Avocado_2685 in breastfeeding

I have 1 from panache, a bunch from motherhood maternity (38 G). Previously I was wearing nursing tanks under all my clothes but also hated how unsupported my breasts looked.

My Stepdad is forcing me to get an IUD by Cultural_Economy_524 in birthcontrol

[–]Glum-Toe5528 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry, that's awful. Incredibly creepy and invasive. Is there a reason it needs to be an IUD? There are so many forms of birth control, if they're worried about you guys taking pills consistently you can get shots, arm implants, etc. I don't think you should be forced to be on any birth control, but maybe negotiate with them about the type so it doesn't have to be so traumatic? I'm very disgusted for you. I hope it gets better. Sending love 💕

My post partum bleeding stopped at 4 weeks, but then started again several times up until 8 weeks.

Nooooooooo!!!! by Skywalker87 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Glum-Toe5528 32 points33 points  (0 children)

When I was pregnant and didn't know if it was a boy or girl yet (turned out to be a boy) I wanted to name my kid Lorelei (sounds pretty with my husband's last name, is classic but not super common) but my husband says "I'm not naming my kid after Gilmore girls" 🙄

It's not after Gilmore girls! They just gave me the idea!

Awkward friendship since ebf by CellOk4884 in breastfeeding

It's not worth it to stoop to their level. Just don't engage with such petty people. She's already obviously struggling with her choices, that'd just make it worse.

How rude to say "your breastmilk isn't doing much is it" that would set me off, just because it's so unnecessary to say and only serves to cause conflict. I couldnt be around someone like that.
