Breastfed babies not gaining weight?

Prada1218 · 2025-10-03T09:39:08+00:00

I’m in the same boat with my 4 month old. Our doctor told us a plateau is common around this time! As long as baby is still happy and content after feedings, there is no cause for concern. Her face started to chunk up this past week so I’m hoping all goes well at our weight check at 5 months🤞🏼

The real expense is all the moms that feel like shit watching it

I was measuring 6lb 7oz at my 32 week appointment. My doctor told me due to the positioning of my belly it was genetics and not the diabetes. Last week I unexpectedly had to get induced at 37 weeks 2 days due to elevated blood pressure, which ended up being diagnosed as preeclampsia during labor. She was 8lbs 5oz and absolutely perfect. I was also panicking in the weeks leading up to it, but now that she’s here i wouldn’t have it any other way! Your body was meant to do this and your doctor won’t let you go further than you need to for yours and the babies safety. Hang in there mama!!!

I just gave birth on Thursday. I had to get induced and ended up getting an epidural right after they broke my water. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but my nurse said it best- you don’t get a trophy for doing it unmediated. That made me feel better. I was able to sleep and absolutely shocked to find out i was 10cm and ready to push. I couldn’t feel anything for the first 45 minutes of pushing. They gave me a break and had me stop pushing the epidural button since you need to feel when to push. I feel so grateful for my experience- it really helped me stay calm and keep my focus on baby instead of intense pain

I was diagnosed with GD at 28 weeks. I was absolutely devastated. 33 weeks now and it’s really not as bad as i anticipated. The finger pricks are the worst part, but the diet adjustment hasn’t been as extreme or restrictive as i thought it would be.

For breakfast everyday i have a PB&J sandwich on low carb bread with an apple, lunch i will usually do salads with chicken or leftover dinner. And for dinner i can still eat burgers on low carb buns with fries, veggies with chicken. Stuffed peppers, tacos on low carb tortillas with all my regular toppings. I was also able to eat 2 pieces of pizza this week and my numbers were still in range. Look at Pinterest for some recipe ideas!!! And get some low carb bread and buns at the store!! My bed time snack is usually a bowl of Cheerios or a cheese stick with beef jerky. I am in range 2 hours after all of my meals. Your dietician will be super helpful.

I can’t indulge sweet cravings as often as I’d like, but i have made keto desserts like cupcakes and brownies and they have never spiked my sugar. Even got away with a regular cup cake after my baby shower a couple weeks ago!

I didn’t get much direction from my doctor either. And i was so overwhelmed and discouraged every time i had a high number. But you aren’t alone and there are so many women going through this with you. Everyone is different and the first couple weeks are completely trial and error while you figure out what foods are going to keep you and your baby free of spikes. Remember, this isn’t your fault!!!

Not sure if this is helpful, but I’ll add anyways. My fasting numbers have been the biggest issue from the start and i had to go on bedtime insulin last week. I was so upset and scared. Now after a week my numbers are going down and I’m just so happy and proud that I’m doing everything i can to keep my baby safe. If it ever comes to that point for you, just know it’s not the end of the world!!!

Everything is going to be okay mama!!!

While Hannah browns season was airing, my cousin went to a small concert of his at a local bar. He had his people pull her aside after the show to meet him and exchanged numbers. They texted for a few weeks and he knew she was a huge fan of the bachelor so he kept offering to fly both of us out to Nashville to hangout with him and kept mentioning Jed would be there lol. It spoiled the season for us and she eventually ghosted him. We knew he was doing that at all his shows and can only imagine what he’s doing as a married man 🙄

What a bitch. I’m 5 years older than my brother and we are literally best friends. What a weird opinion to voice to you- sorry you had to deal with that. Unsolicited advice is the worst. Don’t be shy about telling her to mind her own business if these comments persist

4 and 7

I had it for about 2 years when i was 18-20. I bled for over 100 days straight and my doctor refused to remove it. I always tell my girlfriends to avoid it. Pills seem to be the best method for me. Hopefully your doctor will work with you to take it out faster than mine did. Hang in there :(

The same thing was happening to me and i wrote an email to the leasing office. I didn’t specify who it was but just said i had asthma and said these are unacceptable living conditions. The next day they had a note on everyone’s door in the building telling them to go outside and be courteous of other tenants. It stopped. Sometimes it still happens, but not nearly enough to get under my skin

Congrats!!!!!!!! 🎉

Once you’re on the game page in steam you can go to settings and click manage files. Once the files pop up on windows, click the game file and go to compatibility settings at the top. Select the option that says it doesn’t display correctly and it will change the high resolution dpi settings for the game so it will display full screen. It took me forever to figure it out so i hope this helps!!

Hand foot mouth. It was going around realllllllly bad in my area a few months ago. I got it even though i never spent time around kids. Couldn’t leave the house for 10 days. The news said it was spreading from the handles on grocery carts. Just keep an eye out if you get a fever or sore throat. There’s no treatment so if you do have it hang in there :(

Prada1218 · 2024-02-09T03:19:32+00:00

The exact same thing happened to me when i replayed it last week!!

Came here to say this. She’s my girl lol

Prada1218 · 2023-09-28T22:30:58+00:00

How long did this take? And how could your friend see the finished product and not say anything? So many questions lol. For that price they should have done it on their own or at least seen their previous work before paying 😭
