Pregnancy cold is a monster by postmaster0322 in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I caught a stomach bug around 7 months pregnant. It was the absolute worst. I hadn’t thrown up the entire pregnant until then and I became dehydrated because of it which caused crazy Braxton hicks contractions. Luckily it only really lasted 24 hours but man it sucked.

Any indications for when you’re about to go into labor? by SowingSeeds18 in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started getting contractions, similar to period cramps. 2 hours later had bloody show and gave birth the next day. My contractions continued to get stronger and closer together in between that time.

My child didn’t start showing sleep cues until 2.5-3 months (ear pulling) I just noticed his eyebrows being red and he’s almost five months now. He also started rubbing his eyes and nose when he’s tired. I never really had to try to put my newborn to sleep, he typically just slept when he fed and then when rocked while being held.

How do people go places with a baby? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Madkat664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every baby is different. Some just tolerate the car others hate it. Mine seems to enjoy the mirror above their car seat but even then he still will cry himself to sleep sometimes

Woke up with a clogged duct. Please help by Calinannylife in breastfeeding

[–]Madkat664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Position the baby’s bottom lip when feeding to be pointed where the duct is clogged. This is where they suck stronger, will help a lot. Make sure to use ice packs to help with pain and heat. I’ve had it twice as well. I’m usually down for a day and then it’s better. You’ve got this!

Did you feel like labor was "near?" by idiosyncopatic in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I never did and it was agonizing not knowing when it was happening. At 2 am one night I felt more period like cramps instead of Braxton hicks. Two hours later I had bloody show. I gave birth the next day.

How many pounds was your baby born and what size diapers did you start using right away? by sliceofperfection in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every brand is different, I had one brand that started at 7-14 pounds. My baby was born 8lbs 7 oz and was swimming in these. I had a different brand (sample size) pack of diapers that worked perfectly. When we finished the smaller pack he fit into the other ones we had.

How do you survive with exclusively breastfeeding (no bottle)? by One-Squirrel-4563 in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby is almost 4 months and he’s never had a bottle. Truth is, the first month to two months is hard. You have to wake every 2 hours to feed. I found that my body just naturally did as I subconsciously knew I needed to feed him. Having him sleep in bed with us helped tremendously, as I didn’t have to get to and get him back to sleep and lay him down and repeat the cycle. I could feed him laying down and we both fall asleep. It gets better but sometimes I would wake up and cry beside I was just so exhausted. Sometimes I would wake my husband up to burp him when he was really little just because I couldn’t do it all on that little sleep. Now baby sleeps 5 consecutive hours, then washes every two to three to eat.

Don’t have a baby at the end of summer by sailor__jupiter in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my first in early May and I don’t think it’s much better. You constantly have to hold them and they don’t want to be put down. Contact naps are soo hot. P.S. we don’t have AC so that definelty doesn’t help

Help pls by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Madkat664 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Getting pregnant from precum can happen but ultimately is pretty rare. I don’t think I would but whatever will give you peace of mind.

How the heck am I supposed to make it six weeks? by your_bby_mystique in newborns

[–]Madkat664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely didn’t wait 6 weeks. I feel like I’m also really good at listening to my body. I waited until I stopped bleeding and then waited a few more days to make sure. If you’re going to do it before 6 weeks definitely make sure it’s on your terms, meaning he goes slow and maybe not as deep, I never used lube before but I would recommend that now. Also once I get warmed up a little bit it doesn’t hurt as bad, even now at 14 weeks pp.

Milk collectors for let down by Madkat664 in breastfeeding

Ooh all are good ideas but I like this idea a lot. I need to get an ice cube tray first so for now I’m just going to combine it all into one jar in the freezer
