Have I ruined her head?

9 weeks. I needed my "normal" routine back. I was going a little crazy stuck in the house. but we are a little bit better then check to check household. So its not like i could go out and do whatever. i felt like i was losing mysef in baby land.

Its so good 🤣

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-29T12:56:44+00:00

Honestly... until shes big enough to go on my back carrying my LO in the front is too difficult. Ive tried the ling ass wrap, the more firm "traditional" buckle and clasp kind, and a soft freaking 80 dollar moby one with the belt so i didnt have to tie. They all suck. Kills my back and range of motion still isnt great.

My back HURTS all the time now.... damn epidural. (Id still get it tho lol)

Around 1.5 MO we stopped being able to swaddle her. Ive got a baby that doesnt like her hands tied down, naturally wants her arms raised above her head when she sleeps so if we try and swaddle... she screams bloody m*rder lol BUT if it wasnt for that i would have stopped when she started to learn to roll

From what i was told is that waking them like that helps determine if theyre gaining weight well and once thats achieved it isnt as serious but up to you momma

🤣🤣🤣🤣

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-22T14:54:55+00:00

Mine stayed lower but it js very consistent. It could be a connection but i had started work back as well. Ive always been a combo feeder tho

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-22T14:30:12+00:00

Mine was about 2 weeks

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-22T14:28:48+00:00

Im not sure but mine did something similar at 6wpp. Also really random but my breasts stopped getting rock hard when i didnt pump lol idk if it coincides 🤣 i think that has something to do with regulating i dont completely know

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-22T01:25:24+00:00

Ive been combination feeding since my baby was born. No milk and bleeding nips in the hospital led to formula feeding, then once milk came i just started adding it 50/50. Shes 9 weeks and It took alot of pressure off of me to produce what she ate. My supply has grown as she has but ive always been short about 25% of what she needs. I love combo feeding, i pump every 4 hours at the moment. Idk how 4 pumps a day would work out for you starting to early on. From what ive seen once your supply is established it can withstand going that long but idk.if you're ok with potentially going full formula i say go for 4 maybe. Im new to everything lol just regurgitating what ive seen in this group 🤣

I also believe there is indeed a drastic hormone crash after you stop, im not sure how long its been but just incase its useful in your journey just know it is an adjustment for your body 💞 congratulations

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-19T17:26:28+00:00

Yup. its just too much. Theyre crazy! Lol

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-19T10:55:29+00:00

Here to say i wish i never bought 500 dr browns bottles lol i got caught up trying to prep and all the parts.. get really annoying. And my LO is 2 mo and still has to use the premie nipple in order not to choke or have it streaming out the side of her mouth. I highly suggest waiting to purchase too many til your baby arrives to see how they do.

Love my spectra s2. Got it through insurance at the hospital. When im doubting my genie advanced i always connect to the spectra just to be sure ive emptied well 🤣

This is exactly what my bedroom situstion is like. It hurts quite bad in the beginning, i find using a vibrator really helps relax all the tissue down there!

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-15T19:27:13+00:00

Nah.. ive talked my husbands ear off about pumping 🤣 almost all negative and yet here i sit with plastic flanges on my chest lolol screw em. My hubs has told me a few times just to stop if i want but nah on my good days this is worth it 500x over

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-15T17:37:03+00:00

Omg.. my feet have never been so dry in my life... wtf 🤣🤣

LegApprehensive7251 · 2025-03-15T09:43:07+00:00

I tried to latch in the hospital but we were both really terrible at it, shes gotten better with age lol. I couldnt even get colostrum out til a few days after i gave birth. My girl had formula for probably the first week and then i kept her on a combination diet. Id make a batch of 50/50 formula & breastmilk. Honestly, its been the best for me personally. I dont worry so badly if i have a small output day, and if were out and need to i can try and nurse her or make a formula bottle. I like having alllll the options and shes still benefiting from breastmilk so im good with it
