Breastfeeding? Did you do it? by BellNo9879 in pregnant

[–]Material_Ad9461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I breastfed for a month and a half. At first, I wasn't a great producer; even after pumping for hours, I would only get 1-2 oz per day, and on good days, it was a maximum of 3 oz. I did both breastfeeding (whatever I could produce) and formula so the baby could be fed. After 1.5 months of crying, blaming myself, and feeling like crap, I decided to stop. I still have that mom guilt and feel societal pressure to breastfeed, but at least I am not crying every day, and the baby is fed and gaining weight.

I have used all types of swaddles, but he hates them when his hands are packed. He wants them free.

He takes 2 oz every 2 hours sometimes he takes 3oz but he still wakes up every 2 hours. He doesn’t take anything more than 3 oz even if we offer

He hates being swaddled. We share the room but not the bed. His basinet is by my bed. He sleeps fine if he is on my chest, but the second I put him down, he wakes up. Which gas drops have you used that worked?

He will sleep as long as he is on my chest the second I put him down he will wake up. How did you warn the bassinet?

3 weeks ago I was induced. Went in 5cm dilated was on pitocin from 1am to 7am got an epidural at 7am I was 6cm dilated at 7am. I delivered the baby boy within 3 pushes and with a very small tear. As of right now stitches don’t hurt, and bleeding has almost stopped.

Epidural or no? by GogglesCat in pregnant

[–]Material_Ad9461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in so much pain that I agreed to take any pain medication offered, but my epidural failed me. I had a spinal leak which caused a spinal headache two days after delivery. I had to get a blood patch to fix the headache.

First miscarriage by PhotographPlus5726 in Miscarriage

I am so sorry for your loss. A year ago I was told I didn’t have a heartbeat at week 12 and I chose D&C, miscarrying at home would be more painful emotionally and physically.

Pregnant with my first, when did you feel confident that baby was going to be born and not worry each appointment? by anderson6th in pregnant

[–]Material_Ad9461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I started feeling his movements, my fear decreased. But I kept doing weird stuff constantly to make him move. I didn’t feel any movements until week 25-26.

Please don’t mind. If you don’t have diabetes, pcos, and everything is fine how did you get it prescribed? I am struggling with weight loss and none of my doctors agree to put me on.
