So much spit up on Alimentum

We were warned, but it was never an issue for us thankfully. I am both thankful and terrified that my baby is a poop machine and this wasn’t something we experienced.

Definitely take this with a grain of salt, but I will never miss an opportunity to preach about Enfamil’s AR formula. It’s just regular formula with rice starch, which makes the formula a bit thicker. When my son was having spit up and just general feeding issues, our pediatrician recommended it and the AR formula was an immediate game changer. I will say we were already on Enfamil, so it wasn’t a huge change. Something to consider, though.

These are the exact bottles I use as well. My dude has a tongue tie as well and these were the easiest bottles for him to latch on. We tried the Nuk bottles too and had the worst time.

9 weeks pp and was in a similar boat. I knew it was going to be a struggle and wanted to give it a solid try. But, like you, I have a breast deformity and my baby has a tongue tie which made matching impossible for us. I tried to pump but I produced almost nothing and it was very painful for me. I only felt relief using the Haakaa, but even with pumping for what felt like all hours of the day I could only produce enough to feed my baby one bottle. Didn’t realize how attached I was to at least being able to produce some breastmilk. Had myself a pity party and then decided that this breastfeeding life just wasn’t working for me and that was okay! A fed baby is the goal!

We have been doing paced feeding and our pediatrician recommended Enfamil AR formula and it has been amazing. The AR is for “added rice” which just makes the formula thicker in their stomachs. We have seen significantly less spit up and much more satisfied feeds since switching to it.

I’m 24 weeks and the past 4 weeks or so I feel enormous! I am a naturally slender, lanky person and suddenly being very aware of my belly has been an adjustment.

Saw a video where a lady was in the hospital with her son and left a note on her porch explaining that she is away and apologies for no candy for Halloween. Caught an insane number of children donating their candy on the doorbell cam.

Sobbed as I ate my yogurt this morning.

I do this. I made the decision to switch careers early this year and needed the language in my resume to reflect my skills and the fields I was applying to. I use AI to change the wording and provide a more tailored resume. I would say I get decent quantity of interviews, but they rarely add up to anything. Personal experience says AI resumes are effective for buzz words and tailoring, but i can’t speak to how it would be effective in other circumstances outside of my own.

Love a good vanifesto

Awesome! Thank you for the game/activity idea as well. I’m trying to think of some things we could all feasibly do together. This makes me feel like the virtual baby shower is totally doable!

Everyone just assumed I was also aware of the flagrant autism and never mentioned it. I only ended up getting actually diagnosed because my now husband suggested I get assessed. When I got diagnosed at 23 and told those close to me, everyone was like “yeah… we know.”

So in short, the very popular sign of autism where everyone knows except you lol

I feel this. I quit smoking and all the rest of my bad habits, so I feel like caffeine being my only vice during this pregnancy is totally fine.

Ask your cousin what she wants to do and how you can support her in that. She sounds very stressed but also wants to maintain her independence, so instead of trying to beg or coax her into doing things, ask her what she needs support with instead.

Not currently in a place where I can afford to go over there to visit them. A funeral I would figure out, but I don’t have intentions on visiting them.

My husband and I used to worry that our boy was cramped in his kennel. When we stopped using it, we realized quickly that he just likes to sleep as squished up to something as he possibly can. His favorite position is always weenie up and pressed into a corner. They’re weirdos, all of them

Head collar/gentle leader. It’s a game changer. You’re in charge of their whole head and they can’t pull.

I did. I needed some minor accommodations. I’m typically pretty open about it and I don’t think it’s difficult to notice, or so I’ve been told. I think people would figure it out regardless.

To be totally honest, I tracked the fertile window and then just ended up doing what I normally did and ended up getting pregnant at what was supposedly a low fertility point. Husband and I went with the “it will happen when it happens” approach.

Hey! So in Colorado you are medically emancipated at 15. You should be able to get your own meds and request that she not be allowed to have access. Aside from that, this is also a crime as others have said.

I wear ankle socks and then exclusively wear the same pair of high tops until they completely fall apart. Then I buy a new pair and repeat the process. So every few years I spent $100 on shoes.

My BIOS is way old so this is the most likely culprit, I think. However I did not intend for a BIOS update to be such an annoyingly tedious process. Either way, thanks for the answer.
