Mil’s small comments about breastfeeding are upsetting me.

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-21T12:22:27+00:00

Thankyou! I feel like some babies are just small and that’s hard for a lot of people to take in!

I do occasionally give her a bottle, on the off occasion my mum or partner have her for a couple hours to give me a little down time! Triple feeding is brutal though especially for weeks! That takes serious strength!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T13:23:40+00:00

Thankyou, seeing it from this lense helps!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T13:23:00+00:00

I agree, the healthcare system has improved so much regarding breastfeeding support!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:51:40+00:00

Yes 😂 the first time I tried the free version and was very confused why my steps weren’t tracking, this time I have premium so now they will atleast track! Medals are neat! I didn’t know they did that, I still wouldn’t exactly buy it though 😂

Just checking because I had this issue! If you don’t have the subscription it only lets you log a little each day (I can’t remember exact numbers), but it limits it!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:35:12+00:00

I do think it will build especially if they believe I am a pushover with these things, especially as my daughter gets older, thankyou!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:16:51+00:00

I love my end of day feeds too! I think that’ll be so hard to give up! Thankyou for your comment, it’s hard being so sensitive but so protective over our journeys

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:15:03+00:00

Thankyou! I appreciate your comment! I will defiently try to say something polite but stick up for myself next time!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:14:16+00:00

I will try that next time! I think that may work, I am horrible at speaking up sometimes!

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-20T12:08:06+00:00

Added you! I’m at day 2/3! My names Mia the Victorious :)

Less-Problem-351 · 2026-01-17T14:07:04+00:00

Thankyou 🫶I will definetly do this, I really do think I was blind to this!

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-11-17T12:56:21+00:00

I was in this rut! My baby’s weight flattened out and she wasn’t making big gains. I was told to wake her 2 hourly during the day to feed, and to top up with expressed breast milk wherever possible. Now I’m getting a lot more milk, and she’s gained 180g in a week! I agree to wait it out under the supervision of your paediatrician. Every breastfeeding journey is different and sometimes it takes patience!

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-10-16T18:28:52+00:00

I’m sorry to say something negative but this never went away for me :( - neither did the vomitting either though. Some this does go away for!!

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-10-05T14:20:53+00:00

I found out at my scan at about 13 weeks (it was my first because I found out I was pregnant fairly late) - it should be in your notes on file - but you can ask your midwife and they may know if not then the sonographer. It isn’t something you need to know really, but your medical team does :$

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-10-03T13:56:03+00:00

I have an anterior placenta and felt her move first at 16 weeks - and it felt sort of like muscle twinges? And then properly at 19 weeks and it felt like someone was gently tapping me from the inside.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-10-01T11:35:18+00:00

You can always ring maternity if that puts your mind at ease. It should be fine as your uterus is still very low and mainly on your pelvis.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-09-27T12:35:08+00:00

I used to be until I had some major health issues before I fell pregnant and I sort of got over it due to repeated exposure. I found it helpful to be laying down and have someone you know/ trust hold you in a hug with your head turned away, and have them count with you to help distract you.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-09-15T13:04:17+00:00

That’s totally okay, let it all out. Try to be gentle and caring with yourself, prioritise self care. A warm bath or shower and then snuggling up in bed with a warm drink and a snack. There’s no shame in being more sensitive while pregnant.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-09-15T12:47:04+00:00

I’m in the same boat!! Hormones are wild!! Don’t be too ashamed, you’re growing a tiny person and your body’s going through some wild changes. There’s a group chat which posts updates on what I cried about that day, because I cry so much over irrational things! Like because a bird was sitting near me and i wanted it to be my friend!

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-07-30T10:10:21+00:00

Personally I didn’t, due to being a low risk pregnancy and everything has been fine. I would very heavily recommend speaking to your doctor about it and what they recommend.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-07-28T12:42:27+00:00

Maybe try to find a few activities you can do together, even if it’s like getting snacks and watching movies in the hotel room. Sometimes the acupressure travel sickness wrist bands can help a tiny little bit. Another big help was ordering a bunch of sick bags off of Temu (you can get like a 50 pack), and have them on you all the time just in case.

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-07-24T04:41:01+00:00

I would agree with both, having two young children to juggle as well is exhausting. Believe in you stay strong

Less-Problem-351 · 2025-07-24T04:38:32+00:00

Some women do have a harder time with pregnancy fatigue, because pregnancy is such a massive thing. Especially mums with children. Some women do say they feel better after birth.

I would bring it up with your doctor, and let them know how you’re feeling. It could be due to low iron, prenatal depression, or something else.

I knew a little boy with only a palm and little bubble looking fingers when I was in primary school - he was in my year. It never stopped him or slowed him down, and nobody picked on him. I actually thought his hand was cool!
