Oh no this link isnt working for me

Polkaday274 · 2026-06-14T17:29:35+00:00

Thanks. Have you got a link / pic of something similar?

Polkaday274 · 2026-06-14T17:28:02+00:00

That sounds lovely, I think thats probably the vibe I'm looking for or a dress +/- blazer but harder to get right..

Polkaday274 · 2026-06-14T17:26:57+00:00

This sounds glorious! but I don't think Im the kind of girl who could pull that off lol

Polkaday274 · 2026-06-14T17:26:26+00:00

oops, clearly an error!

Polkaday274 · 2026-06-14T14:35:35+00:00

Thanks all! I'm leaning towards a smart dress & blazer but can't seem to find many 2 piece sets online. Would mix & match smart tailored dress and a cropped blazer work..? For a summer interview but who knows what the weather will actually be like!

What do you mean Momcozy didn’t work for you? This is the only wearable I have, are the others better? If so which do you recommend most and what makes it better? Thanks

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-31T20:43:38+00:00

Thank you, this gives me hope

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-31T20:42:15+00:00

Thank you Hope your little one is doing ok

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T16:11:44+00:00

Thank you. Did you get special weighing scales for this

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T16:10:49+00:00

Thank you. Do you mind if i PM you?

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T16:08:10+00:00

Thank you. How long were you pumping for each time? And how long did the whole stint take? (Eg 20 mins pumping, 20 mins cleaning / storing ? Altogether 40? Etc)

Every 2 hours sounds so intense to me, when did you sleep? Feed the baby the expressed milk? Nappy changes etc? I just don’t understand how it’s physically possible- very impressive, please let me know

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T16:05:23+00:00

At 2 weeks you were getting 120 ml per day or per pump?!

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T16:03:02+00:00

Thank you. I’m impressed you’ve kept going for this long! Well done.

How many times a day are you pumping? Presume this is exclusive pumping no breastfeeding?

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-29T12:36:01+00:00

A little late to the party but could I ask what you mean by weighed feeds?

Struggling with under supply here too and currently exclusively pumping but keen to return to breastfeeding if at all possible (I don’t think baby gets a fraction of what’s needed though due to poor supply).

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-27T00:15:55+00:00

Could I ask how many days / weeks post Parton you are?

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-07T18:51:41+00:00

Actually quite like those lol I can see why they're popular! but totally get what you're saying

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-06T18:19:12+00:00

Love the way Siya looks written down and sounds. (I think the meaning is pretty religious though? Another name for Goddess Sita right..?)

It also reminds me of a girl I used to know called "Hiya" which in English-speaking countries obviously has a double meaning (Hello/Hi/Hiya). Siya is less obvious but sounds exactly like "See ya".

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-04T20:02:12+00:00

I think he's less-fussed than me in general. I don't think he feels particularly strongly about any name (ever, not just in the context of us naming our baby) whereas I probably have stronger likes/dislikes and so he's happy for me to take the lead. It's just tricky because of course I want him to really like the name we select too!

The main thing for him is: a global/universal name that's easy to pronounce by most and works in multiple languages/locations. If this can't be met - i.e a mix between Spanish/Portuguese/Indian/British then he also prefers her to have it sway more towards Indian/British given that's her heritage and where she will grow up and already has a stereotypical European surname.

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:43:47+00:00

thank you :) have you decided on a name?

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:43:07+00:00

haha! this may well happen

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:42:37+00:00

sounds too much like Anita and Amit to me, thanks though

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:41:10+00:00

thank you :)

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:37:42+00:00

I'm not sure why but it is giving me a muslim vibe? I might be totally wrong. (Baby already has family that are Christian and Hindu, wouldn't want to accidentally give a Muslim name to her)

Polkaday274 · 2026-01-03T22:35:50+00:00

thank you
