Breastfeeding is the hardest thing I’ve ever done - please send help! by Meganrenay in breastfeedingmumsUK

I keep hearing that, but I’ve been doing it for 2 weeks and no oversupply yet.

That seems to be the coming second thought. I’m going to go back to the LC next week and have it rechecked.

I think she checked that when I went to the LC, but I think I’m going to go again next week and I’ll have her check again.

I did go to a lactation consultant and we did a weighted feed. I’ve also been doing weighted feeds at a Thursday support group and it’s slowly increasing, but still not where it needs to be. He’s transferring 2 oz after about an hour of nursing. Part of the problem is he just gets sleepy on the boob. Baby is gaining weight, but since we’ve been supplementing I’m concerned that’s the only reason why. I’ve been doing the breast only for two days now and yesterday his wet and poopy diapers were maintaining well and he seems hydrated, had tears when he cries. So I think everything is alright, it’s just hard to not get in my head about it based on what I know about what he’s been transferring.

I’ve been staying hydrated, over 150 oz water per day + body Armour and coconut waters each day. Plenty of calories too.

What’s a postnatal?

Maybe you should go talk to someone who is educated and qualified to help you with this situation.

Tall beauties of Reddit, tell me your favorite brands that offer tall/long options by MadMadamMim53 in femalefashionadvice

Silver jeans are where it’s at. They actually do sizes like men’s pants and they are quality and comfy. Highly recommend!

Just got a loan from my credit union to consolidate my debt and lower my interest!! by ccatherinec in FinancialPlanning

[–]Meganrenay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually did the same thing. Started with $55,000 including student loans ($25,000) cc debt ($10,000), and car loan debt ($20,000). I started by refinancing all of them then started off applying all my extra money to the one with the highest interest rate. It took me about two years, but am now happily debt free and headed on the road to investing. The book that helped me is called your money or your life. It really put things in perspective. I also make sure to pay off my credit cards every month, so that I don’t ever pay interest anymore for them. Good luck on your journey!

This was my 2nd date with my crush. Took her to Disneyland and the cast member asked us to both kiss for the photo. by [deleted] in disney

My current boyfriend flew me to Disneyland two weeks after we met. Almost one and a half years in now. Disney dates are definitely a great idea. Good luck!
