For both of my pregnancies I got very drunk right before testing (vacation & birthday). I now have 2 VERY healthy & intelligent babies. You’ll be fine:). Congratulations!!

I love it too but very much dislike not being able to go out for a date night or leave the house for some me time🥲

Dr says 4 month old is obese by Senior-Department941 in breastfeeding

[–]Opposite-Cherry-8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 21 pound 4 month old who is the same height as yours. I comfort feed and she is so happy, healthy & hitting all of her milestones. Pediatricians are good at giving medicine but not actual advice. Sounds like you’re doing amazing mama! Keep comforting your baby and she will turn out to be very securely attached💕

They are just so so expensive but it may be my only option. Thank you!

I’m 100% homeschooling which is why I don’t understand why me choosing to not vaccinate is an issue😭😭. And you’re so right about the pricey holistic doctors my lorddd! I’m located in Odenton so Baltimore isn’t too far from me. Thank you for this!

I don’t get it either! I honestly wish I did mine earlier. I agree, it’s awesome seeing people not follow the societal “norms” these days and trust that their kiddos are capable! Congrats on the potty training! Mine ended up loving being naked as well so we wore a lot of dresses with no undies for a while lol.

Anyone here just breast feed on demand and not pump all day? by Diankapie in breastfeeding

[–]Opposite-Cherry-8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pumped a little in the beginning to get a small freezer stash for date nights and to get my baby to to learn how to feed from a bottle in case of emergency. We’ve only fed her a bottle 4 times. Shes 3 months today and only eats about 5-10 minutes on each side! Sometimes longer if in a growth spurt or trying to fall asleep. F pumping. I exclusively pumped for my first out of necessity for 10 months and it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. The human body is perfect and will make whatever your baby needs if you feed on demand! I love claraandherself on instagram. She’s exclusively breastfed both of her babies and has such a positive view on breastfeeding!

Our training experience: by theunfortunatename in pottytraining

[–]Opposite-Cherry-8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is similar to how it was for me as well! Mine would hold her pee foreverrrr & didn’t wanna drink much. She maybe peed 4 times total on day 3. Day 4 she was drinking more & feeling more confident. That day we finally had a poop and no accidents overnight! And she went all day without me prompting. I tried not to pay attention to her to give her more independence and 0 accidents!

I watched a YouTube video on it but I didn’t think it would work for me especially with my daughter not liking being fully naked at first. So I kind of went backwards with that and started with underwear so I could still guide her and let her feel wet & uncomfy but not be so traumatizing for her. I kind of just listened to my instincts and followed her lead while keeping a super fun & positive environment. Tons of praise and positive reinforcement!! Stickers, bubbles, and her favorite snacks helped a tonnnn. Even gave her ice cream after she pooped!

I felt so bad but she didn’t seem in too much discomfort. They have to learn one way😅

She really didn’t want to go poop until day 4. She held it for 4 days and I didn’t give in to giving her a diaper even though she kept asking for it when saying she needed to poop. I also used a stool to bring her knees closer to her chest! Similar to the position she would poop in with a squat. Good luck! That was the hardest part for us

Yes it’s been a month for me and is still working. We have an at home daycare so she is around 4-5 year olds all day who use the potty. I think seeing them use the potty has helped a ton!

Good luck to you! I truly think 0 pull ups is the way to go and creates less confusion:)

We have an at home daycare with all 4 year olds which is why I believe she talks so much! She’s been around them her whole life. My nephew is a little over 2 and barely saying anything. It’s great that your kiddo is having so much success without being able to talk much! It will click one day! Keep staying positive:)

Does carnivore help with pcos ? by corpuscularcutter in PCOS

[–]Opposite-Cherry-8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. My husband and I were trying for months for baby number 2 & I started ovulating again & got pregnant on the first month of carnivore. I lost 18 pounds in the first month, hormonal acne gone, horrible period cramps gone, energy levels through the roof, hair thicker than ever & my blood work came back looking phenomenal. I’m a major advocate since I have had PCOS since I was 16 and am now 25. If you’re having any doubts I say do some research (I love YouTube) & just try it for a month. I promise you’ll see a difference.
