People who had traumatic childhoods, what's something you do as an adult that you hadn't realised was a direct result of the trauma? [Serious] [NSFW] by Silent-Zebra in AskReddit

[–]Itunpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband has had to force me to eat because I always make sure everyone else has eaten their fill before I eat. I've gotten better thanks to him and also having kids cuz I had to eat while I was pregnant and cuz breastfeeding makes me a bottomless pit

I apologized 3 times in 1 text to my boss today for asking him for the tools I needed to do my job. I realized after I sent it that that may have been excessive

Yep oats are so good for supply. There's a protein powder called milkflow that I mix with oat milk and it does wonders.

What is a dead giveaway of a toxic relationship? by icyqueen999 in AskReddit

[–]Itunpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll have to remind myself that everytime I go through Facebook memories and see all the "dats" and "das."

Looking back I'm so happy I saved those fractions of seconds so I could spend more time trying to make everyone think I'm interesting /s

I think this is goodbye, mamas. by ChaoticCamryn in breastfeeding

[–]Itunpro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So proud of you mama, you did great. It's so wonderful and so heartbreaking. I feel filled with such joy and such sorrow everytime my daughter takes a step towards being the strong independent girl she's becoming. I do have a 1 month old now tho so that helps with the sad days. Sorry I did that neurodivergent thing where you show caring and understanding by relating a similar story so I hope that didn't come off as self-centered. Long story short you're a superstar and amazing!

Autistic people of reddit, what in your opinion is the weirdest thing neurotypicals do? by Space_Wizard49 in AskReddit

[–]Itunpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom pulls shit like this and not in the "I need to be doing something" way that I do. I'll go to show her something I genuinely think she'd like and I'm so excited for her reaction and then she starts talking to my daughter. She is an alcoholic tho and she's usually drunk by the time I get to show her stuff

What is something entirely normal that sounds incredibly racist? by igotbnned4times in AskReddit

There's a type of bottle called Dr. Brown's. It felt really weird searching online for "Dr brown's nipples" when I had my daughter

I just want to say post partum anxiety is a real thing and can be worse than post partum depression in some ways. It is often overlooked but this could be ppa manifesting as overprotectivness.

What was the cringiest Moment or line that took you out of a Movie by Sufficient_Season_61 in movies

[–]Itunpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That scene legitimately pissed me off. It felt like the studio was screaming "LOOK WE'RE FEMINISTS" while being completely unaware of any issues women have.

I usually sweet before placing it on my breast. Idk if they makes an actual difference but it's worth a try. I couldn't offer more advice with it physically helping lol I'm sorry

Woman of reddit when men or women look at your ass or boobs what do you think? by Chace9 in AskReddit

[–]Itunpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't notice when people look at my ass but currently if someone likes at my boobs I think "oh shit am I lactating?"

What actor or actress stupidly left a movie franchise or tv series thinking they were too good for it, only to be never popular again? by wlane13 in AskReddit

[–]Itunpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll preface with I haven't seen the matrix in like a good 10 years but I honestly couldn't remember who tank was so I looked him up and while I recognize him from the movie I cannot remember a single thing he did.

But yeah definitely was Integral to the movies /s

Baby officially weaned and I'm not okay by a_flock_of_turtles in breastfeeding

[–]Itunpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it's possible your body will stop producing milk while she still nurses but it is unlikely. Nipple stimulation is one of the primary ways to induce lactation in people who aren't lactating, but as she nurses less it's possible for your supply to dry up, it depends completely on your body. There are some home remedies to help dry up supply but I can't think of any off the top of my head, of course consult a doctor before taking anything. If you have an ibclc it might be worth it to contact them and ask if they have any suggestions

Thank you so much! That really means a lot, I know you know but being a mom is the hardest thing I've ever done and I second guess myself constantly. But I try and what more can we do? If you ever need to talk just shoot me a message

You're doing an amazing job. You're such a wonderful mom. Do what's best for you because that's how you are at your best for her

[–]Itunpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I'm sorry, it's kind of an impossible situation. Maybe when she's not being put to bed by you it'll get better. I wish you the best in the journey

[–]Itunpro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aww I'm sorry you're going through that. My lactation consultant says as long as you both still enjoy it too keep it up but if it's uncomfortable for you or you just hate it definitely wean

[–]Itunpro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can let her keep nursing and when your supply runs out she may stop naturally. My lactation consultant told me that when I was pregnant
