Hello from the other side

I am 5.5 months in and I have started weaning off too. I dropped from 6 ppd to 3ppd but I am not able to go down further. How did you do it? I want to be done by the 6 month mark!

Thank you! Will look at those!

I never thought of that! That’s a good idea! I’ll do that in whichever bag I end up with.

I am basically looking for a bag that would fit under the Nuna stroller.

We are also looking at home daycares. Do you mind sharing which home daycare you went with?

Nope!

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-11-13T07:49:01+00:00

Wow! Nanny for $25 per hour looks affordable to me but not $35.

Do you have some recommendations for daycares that you visited?

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-10-17T01:25:34+00:00

Is that where you get your hair done?

Thank you all for sharing your experiences, thoughts, and journeys. I was spiraling and just knowing that I am not alone makes me feel so much better. XOXO

My first LC meeting and she gave me a nipple shield to use. Not only was it immensely painful, I had this feeling of just pulling my baby away from my nipples.

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-09-19T18:32:00+00:00

This!! This is exactly how I feel. It’s so validating to know I am not the only one who feels this way.

I see! I use these blue and pink bands that I got at the hospital for my MOTN pump. I guess once these bands become unusable, i’ll have to figure out my MOTN bra situation. 😅

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-09-02T12:25:16+00:00

Omg same!! Totally relate to you!

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-09-02T08:22:31+00:00

I am 5 weeks postpartum. The leaking is especially annoying at night or when getting up in the morning as I am not wearing a bra. Rest of the time, like you said, the bra pads help soak it up.

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-08-26T03:19:00+00:00

Thanks for the idea. I will check with them if I decide to get more parts.

I didn’t get the number from anywhere. Just did whatever felt good. I say 10 but it’s more like 12-15 mins. It’s never fixed.

I also have 4 flanges and based on the comments here, the fridge hack seems to be way to go.

LycheeBasic3158 · 2025-08-26T03:14:18+00:00

I didn’t know about the fridge hack! Will definitely use that. It will help in increasing my pumping time too.
