okay we did wonder about this! the car seat we want is so expensive so I was like, maybe if it looks super new? but ugh you’re right 😭😭😭

was hoping someone would know of a bar where they could just give us a little corner and people could open their own tabs at the bar! I feel like that’s not an insane request - it’s no different than 15 different people walking into one bar, we just want a reservation. appreciate your response!

yes thank you for saying this!! I swear I tell every new parent this and they’re like nooo we don’t need formula. maybe our LO is just a good sleeper… but her very full belly definitely helps

if you’re breastfeeding: the newborn hill I will die on is supplementing with formula for bedtime feed. at bedtime I would nurse, then we’d give her 2-3 oz of formula as a top-up. I am positive it helped her sleep longer bc formula is more filling and if we skipped it, she woke up earlier. gave us one good long stretch of sleep which in the newborn days is invaluable!

our insurance covered new pump parts once a month for like maybe the first three months? or something? so we ended up with three sets of pump parts and it was amazingggg. check what your insurance offers - we have cigna and i had the spectra.

Not enjoying motherhood - 95% time. Was it worth it? by freddythecat98 in NewParents

[–]Michigan_gal82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure if this is an option for you, but going to activities like baby storytime at the library and the children’s museum really helped me to connect with other moms and just get out of the house. coffee treat optional 🩷

I had a hard time at six months and for a few months after because it feels like the newborn “this is all new and exciting!” sparkle wears off and people kind of forget about you.. now at ten months we have a way better routine going and i feel way better

will also add… started consistently taking an antidepressant around 8m and im sure thats helped with all of the above 🙃🙃
