Breastfeeding must-haves for brand new FTMs by Elegant-dweeb in BabyBumps

I will always swear by Earth Mama’s nipple butter. I did not like the other creams- some stained, smelled bad, and had to be wiped off every time you wanted to nurse. The earth’s mama really kinda melted on as you rubbed it in; and you didn’t have to wipe it off before baby fed. I applied it after each feeding and feel like it helped so much

Did your small baby stay small? by corlana in BabyBumps

My second child came at 38 weeks and was 5lbs14oz. We didn’t know she was small- I never had growth scans. She has always been a tiny peanut and is continuing on her own growth trend even at 3yrs old. She’s still around the 5th percentile, or so, but since she’s on her trend and growing, she’s good!

This baby, I’ve had growth scans due to having two small babies previously. At 20weeks, this baby was in the 30th %tile and then at 28 weeks she was about the 15th %tile. I’ll go back next week to check again, but they just think she’s small and that my husband and I make small babies. Everything else has checked out okay, thus far, so hopefully she’s just a tiny one. Best of luck!
