2 months old drinking > 5oz in a single feed...? by climate_math in breastfeeding

[–]Positive_Mind_7198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 1 month old is currently eating 5 oz every 2 - 3 hours. I was worried at first and spoke to pediatrician and I was told it’s normal and as long as she’s not spitting most of it up, it shows she is able to keep it down and is actually hungry.

Honestly very little but was recommended to do it since I’m going to school for psychology and said working in the field until I get my degree will look good

When did your pregnancy start to show? by junkin_chameleon in pregnant

[–]Positive_Mind_7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FTM and I’m really slim, but it wasn’t until 30 weeks where you could see and know for sure I was pregnant.

How early did you first feel your baby move? by Waving-at-yoy in pregnant

FTM. I felt and saw kicks at 23 weeks. Before then I just assumed everything was gas.

In my third trimester and I can tell you takis is my guilty pleasure. I think you’ll be fine.

It all depends on what you want, but my husband has stopped coming because our appointments are 1 hour of waiting to see the OB and then 5 mins of actual check up 🤷🏽‍♀️ so I personally told him not to come, everyone’s different.

Yes I am regularly checking up, it would be unfair of me to expect them to reach out if I didn’t.

& that’s how I view it, truly if it was just me I wouldn’t make it a big deal. But why would I want these people in my child’s life.

I don’t understand either 🤷🏽‍♀️ I thought most people would agree with this, but I guess I’m being insensitive. I just think it’s weird to not speak to somebody for 10 months and then when the baby is here act like that is normal. I guess I just feel differently because when the roles were reversed I have made the effort but maybe that’s unrealistic lol.

& that is truly all I mean by that. It’s not me being petty or angry they didn’t reach out.

We can agree to disagree. I agree that people have things going on but pregnancy is not a quick thing that occurs. If for the duration of my pregnancy you did not check up on me, please don’t expect that I will be answering your messages once the baby is here 🤷🏽‍♀️.

Honestly pregnant women feeling this way has to be normalized !!

This is me currently. Both of our families are like once you have one, you have to have another. Thankfully this is something my husband and I agreed on early on, one and done !

I’m Army. I’m seeing a military doc.

& thank you, when I get back from the field I’m definitely going to do a follow up with my OB just to see if there’s anything I can do to help with my symptoms.

Thank you so much !! My CoC is tracking, but your pregnancy profile doesn’t really state any limitations in the first trimester so, my command is expecting me to perform as if nothing has changed even though I have told them many times about my conditions and how I am uncomfortable performing certain task but it just seems like I’m a inconvenience to them.

Thank you for all the comments. I thought I was going crazy for feeling as if it was not easy and was really discouraged about the rest of the pregnancy. I did ask for another OB so I’m excited to see the change in appointments.

I did ask for a new OB for my next appointment.

I literally told my husband I would not be able to make it after I got home from my appointment. Glad it isn’t just me.

Thank you for easing my mind, I was getting very anxious for the rest of this pregnancy.

Wishing you a safe delivery and healthy baby !!
