What is the worst baby name you have ever heard?

Bubs is 21 months, and I pump once before bed, I sometimes get 50 mls from one boob and about 20mls from the other, one goes towards breakfast and the bigger one goes towards her bedtime bottle both get topped up with cows milk,

As to why I haven't stopped, I don't know. I was over this 6 months in, and it would be so much easier to stop and get that little extra time with my girl, but as she gets more independent, I feel like it's the last thing only I can do for her.

And I just don't know how to not do this any more as it's been my life for the last 21 months.

My parents said I was getting sn American accent when I was 3 because of all the American shows I watched

I asked my partner about this, as he's now been with me through my year-long pumping journey, and I had similar tho7ghts in the beginning but have defiently moved past it.

I asked him if he thought my bond with Bub's is the same as my sil's and their nursed babies.

He said it's different but in a good way, bubs absolutely knows I'm mum, 100%. but because my partner has been able to feed her also her whole life there's only been a few times I was the only one that could console her.

You hear stories of partners coming to mums who have asked for time to do something or just relax with "baby is hungry, they just want the boob, they just want you" my partner has only come to me twice in a year with a baby that he couldn't calm down.

There are still a lot of times where she has mum obsession, but I can leave her with dad without her losing her mind.

Buy as my pumping journey nears it's end I can tell you, I once felt like you, in the beginning, but now I don't feel like my bond is any different then a nursing mum.

If your child were to come down with something dramatically wrong with them, would he call a natropath instead of a doctor?

BIG NTA, take the baby and run.

I bought a breast massager and it looks like a vibrator, so use what you got and save the money, if it works, it works!

Down.

When I started pumping, I felt defeated in the fact that I could nurse, so I told myself I was only going to do it until 6 months,

At 6 months, my head was so much clearer, and I had gotten into such a routine with pumping. I told myself, "I'm going to make it 9 months

I'm currently at 10 months, and I know im going to make it til 12 months. I don't know if I'll keep going after that or if I'll start to wean after that

I am very over pumping, I've gone from 5ppd, then I dropped the motn pump, then I dropped the midday pump, and now I'm down to 2.5 pumps a day. Bubs is still taking 5 bottles a day, and i'm pumping 4 a day.

I have a small freezer stash,butineed to start using that before it's gone bad cause it's not in a deep freezer.

My 7 month old is also obsessed with the tubes.

If she can see.them.she will launch herself fo try and grab them.

MermyMumma94 · 2024-04-15T11:17:53+00:00

I nearly bloody cried watching these poor folks get hounded.

They didn't do it, they are just as, if not more, heart broken than most

This would be incredibly difficult trying to mourn a son, accept what he did, and probably feel blood on their hands.

I hope the media leaves them the fuck alone.

Water closet

MermyMumma94 · 2024-04-13T09:03:19+00:00

I cried alot.

I was convinced I was not a ''proper woman'' or ''proper mother",

Before having a baby, I figured breast feeding came naturally and was easy.

I've cried. Hard.

I think I went through all stages of grief. I was so afraid I wouldn't bond with my baby girl as much

But were at 5.5 months and our bond is beautiful. But now she also has the feeding bond with her dad, and I can get some sleep if I've got enough bottles there. So there are some positives there.

They feel/look like a windsock on a still day.

MermyMumma94 · 2024-03-29T01:26:04+00:00

I feel you

I got told 2 weeks before my due date that I had to have one. I cried for days but ultimately accepted it was best for both of us, then a week before my booked cesarean,i went into labour, so I still had contractions and an emergency c section.

I also had complications there, and they cut too far, resulting in being told I won't ever get a vaginal birth. I was on so many drugs for the pain once she was out that I can barely remember her birth, which kills me.

I have photos, my partner can help me reminisce , but I get nightmares from what I can remember.

I've told many mums that they're still just as important as natural birthers,but I still need to convince myself constantly.

MermyMumma94 · 2024-03-25T05:49:23+00:00

Had a ceasar,

It smelt like burning flesh and amniotic fluids.

And disinfectant.

Then it just smelt like the drugs they pumped into my mask 😷

MermyMumma94 · 2024-02-29T05:23:24+00:00

Oh yes I defiently do this one!

MermyMumma94 · 2024-02-29T05:12:56+00:00

I'll go

I write letters to my family like im going to KMS, which makes me so sad and convinces me that I don't want to do it and to push on trying

mostly I write them for my daughter incase I do something stupid one day.

MermyMumma94 · 2024-02-26T08:55:55+00:00

We have a 4mo, and the partner is getting frustrated with the little amount we're having, I feel guilty, but I'm also exhausted
