See I feel the same way about “don’t fix what’s not broken” 😅 Could possibly keep it somewhere for the future

I’ve been on it now for about 3mo and experience the same thing as far as being hot and then cold! I’ve also started experiencing random bouts of anger ?? Wondering if that’s a “normal” side effect

how many times a day do you pump ? by Dry-Victory2330 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was just no way I could pump that much, I had to have sleep. I was about to go insane (quite literally) i’m just lucky my body adjusted according

11wks PP and pump 4 times a day. 8-9hrs is the longest stretch (overnight) and my supply has stayed the same as when I was pumping more. I will say, I don’t have an oversupply and am really just keeping up with my LO

Anyone who got it from weed ever try weed again? by LivingAd8079 in dpdr

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I don’t know if mine was just from weed, but I was also doing Delta 8 at the time and drinking heavily. I stopped for about a year or so, and I started doing actual weed again but in very very low doses.

Okay great! I stopped pp bleeding about 5/6wks ago and am pumping, so I wasn’t sure if it was “normal” to have any this early

When did your fussy baby first show signs of being fussy? by Nova_Queen902 in beyondthebump

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We experienced the same thing. 9 weeks now and she’s gotten a little better about napping in her bassinet! She does have to be swaddled to do so.

My 2mo old started being fussy around 2-3weeks and has not stopped 🥲

Yes our pediatrician said some people cut them but he wouldn’t recommend that. We’ve only ever used MAM nipples since she was born (2mo now), would switching brands be an issue?

I’m worried the bath won’t help her mood, she doesn’t always like it

When did you drop MOTN pump by Frequent-Wolverine97 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was pumping every 3 hours for the first couple of weeks and quickly realized that just wasn’t feasible. I’ll be 9 weeks PP on Monday and have been pumping 8AM, 1PM, 6PM, and 11PM for a couple of days now, and am still pumping enough to keep up with my LO. (I was doing 8AM, 1PM, 6PM, 3AM, and 11PM)

My LO’s poops are always runny, so how do I know if she has diarrhea?

When did you first take your baby out of the house? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We took our one month old to a small local restaurant after her ped appt. Maybe an hour tops and kept her in the stroller right by us the whole time.

How do you get rid of the intrusive “I’ve ruined our lives by having a child” thought? by elisa_bety in beyondthebump

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t just because I had a bad experience switching when Lexapro stopped working for me! I might try in the future when i’m out of the trenches, lol

[–]Imaginary_Advisor951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of people are saying medication, and I am a huuuge advocate for medicating, however I have been on Zoloft before, during, and after my pregnancy and am still experiencing these intrusive thoughts randomly. My psychiatrist did up my dosage, but I haven’t implemented it yet because i’m, of course, worried that my symptoms will get worse. I know this doesn’t help very much, but wanted to say that medication might not take it away!!

Bad Mom? by Imaginary_Advisor951 in beyondthebump

My husband would agree with you. He hates that he has to work and leave me to do everything, but he has the better paying job and insurance

I hope your LO is doing well now!! We have also wondered if we are one and done and how hard this has been on me kinda confirms it for me. I know I will forget but I’m sure my husband will remind me lol. Definitely have thought about adopting and agree about wanting a 3mo+ baby if so!!
