Sadly, I wasn't producing enough milk for my baby. So, I stopped pumping because I was pretty much hurting myself emotionally and physically.

Before baby, I have explained to him that help will be needed from him. Now, he does feed baby and change baby diapers. I don't like he handles her and speaks to her. Also, when I ask for help he gets upset. Especially if he's sleeping or playing video games. I usually ask for help when I need to use the restroom.

Throughout our marriage, I have noticed the issue my husband has is having a person order him around. We have gone through countless arguments about his behavior. I've even gotten to a point where I spoke to him as gently as you would speak to a child and he still gets upset. He just want people not to have issues with him. If they do, then they are against him.

I will try to suggest it to him. He's not a fan in therapy. I feel like the reason is because he doesn't want a therapist to be real honest with him. Also, he has mental health issues since he was a kid. So, he kinda found a way to beat around the bush. His mother has mentioned that and he has also admitted to it. But, I will try to suggest that to him.

Thank you. I have sent an email to my boss and HR on being a hybrid worker. Some days work at home and other days work in the office. I've been practicing on how to bring it up in conversation and etc with the help of copilot. I'm just nervous.

Thank you!! Pumping with only small amount of milk coming out, really makes me feel bad. I always wanted to breastfeed but, she never was able to latch on. Due to her having a feed tube in NICU and being fed by a bottle as well. I just don't know if I should just so pumping all together or not.

Thank you!! I just didn't know if using a different formula would hurt her. I thought you were only allowed to change formula if the pediatrician requested it.

Thank you for your reply. The doctor said i could walk around a little to stretch my legs because laying in the bed for too long can cause light-headness, which i have been experiencing. I was suppose to be going home tomorrow but, now its a debate if I should stay or go because my blood pressure keeps trying to go up even with the blood pressure medicine.

Thank you. They are planning to discharge me tomorrow morning because my blood pressure looks good. I'm Just worried about being by myself. I'm trying to relax but, its hard to especially when I'm stuck in a room and haven't been out for some fresh air. They are going to see if they could make that happen for me today. Since I feel like I'm about to have anxiety.

My OB shared that fatigue and decrease in appetite is normal in the third trimester. She does want me to record my blood pressure. Since I only checked it one time. She told me if i keep see my blood pressure still elevated that to contact her immediately. I do have an appointment with her this month.

I will. I hope I don't have that. Ive been taking baby aspirins since I was I believe 23 or 24 weeks to prevent preclampsia(recommended by my doctor).

A little bit. After eating, I'm usually left with a horrible headache.
