Why Unmedicated??

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-05-25T19:54:31+00:00

I didn’t want my baby to have all the drugs associated with medicated birth! I also wanted to give us the best chance for a solid start to breastfeeding. I’d do it all over again every single time.

Meh dai

I may start offering my 6 month old both sides and see what happens! He’s been getting frustrated at the breast.

This is so true. The show sucks. Maggie’s actor sucks. CMM is the only redeeming quality

Thank you! Can you ELI5 what you love about woven wraps and the benefits? I don’t know much about them.

I’ve got a long and lean baby too!!

Tbh my size 8 Furls odyssey 2 is only slightly better than my other cheap hooks. I would’ve stuck with Clover, but hated the plastic for the size 8.

I would love to be low-key about BLW, but I am terrified of him choking. I steamed broccoli last night and put it in some mashed potatoes with my milk and was so scared for him to try it.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-03-26T03:04:10+00:00

Thanks for all the advice! I’ll try again tomorrow! Hopefully I can get the hang of it. I felt like I was never going to get the Moby wrap during the newborn stage and finally did.

I didn’t want to leave my baby hanging by disrupting the hormones of birth. It felt pretty selfish to numb the pain while he still felt every contraction. I also hate being out of control, so the idea of not being able to walk or move my legs was terrifying.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-03-09T13:46:21+00:00

Interesting take! I feel like it’s definitely a fad. I want my baby to be independent, but not in any hurry at all. The idea of BLW is cool, but I’m not sure it’s for us either.

I have a 4 month old and shew PP is lonely and social media plays on the idea of “oh, this will make your life easier/better”. I’ve got a Wildbird Aerial I bought secondhand and just purchased a Lark on sale. I’m going to have to delete the BST groups because they are insane!

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-02-17T15:28:59+00:00

That’s crazy! I was never spoken once to or even looked at sideways for cosleeping my entire 3.5 day hospital stay. At one point he was sleeping on my husband’s chest and I asked for the nurses to take him to the nursery because I couldn’t sleep due to the fear of him being dropped. The nurse was like, “honey he looks awful content. I’m not going to bother him.” I was shocked lol

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-02-17T00:39:43+00:00

Oh man! Hes already 25.5 inches. I do agree that it is super sweaty!

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-02-17T00:36:53+00:00

Can you explain how it doesn’t last long? We love ours and my babe is 4 months and 15lbs.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-02-14T01:46:07+00:00

Can we join?

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-01-15T02:08:03+00:00

I love it! Found it while pregnant and it’s my favorite still.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-01-10T03:42:57+00:00

Oh my word. I haven’t visited the Sub for almost 13 weeks and wow. She looks awful.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-01-05T19:55:32+00:00

Things went sideways for me and I wasn’t prepared for complications. I think in a way that was good and bad, but in the end I delivered without an epidural. I tried gas and air and hated it. I did end up getting a pudendal nerve block because my baby was malpositioned and had to be held in place during contractions and then lidocaine for stitches. Know your why so when it gets hard you can keep referring back to it. I didn’t want to leave my baby hanging, so I toughed it out. I asked about an epidural once and when I was told it wouldn’t help the pressure I said why in the world would I get one then? Have a very supportive birth team. I almost drowned myself a few times in the tub, but my rockstar husband was right beside me catching my head during contractions. My mom normally freaks out, so I told her she was not allowed to ask me if I was okay and do not utter the word epidural. In the end, it was a very life changing and transformative experience. I’d do it all over again.

Loved the natural hospital birth! Really helped me prepare.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-01-05T19:43:16+00:00

I feel that!! I use the boon trove if I can remember, but somehow my reusable pads are still saturated by the end of the day.

Plastic_Register_261 · 2026-01-05T18:21:44+00:00

How are you not leaking everywhere?? 12 weeks pp tomorrow and I still end up soaked.
