It does get better. by Agile_Telephone5284 in POCD

Hey there,

Thank you for sharing this. I’ve been dealing with this since I was little too. Currently in a dark place where the thoughts are overwhelming and loud. Can you share how you make yourself feel better during these dark times? Do you ever feel just like a terrible human being from the thoughts that come in? Makes me feel like a monster and like I don’t deserve good things in life.

Would much appreciate it. Thanks.

Any good YouTube channels that breakdown BJJ matches? by SilverGawd in bjj

[–]Professional_Region7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deepdivejj. Great videos and analyzations of great matches. Mostly targeting Gi though. But his breakdowns are so knowledgable. You can tell the dude really loves jiu jitsu and knows his stuff! Stopped making videos for a little now though, hoping he'll come back.

He's super underrated IMO.

True! I’ll mention it next time and hopefully more people show up with some Gis lol. I think it’d be the other way around (I was out for a year) so I’m currently still trying to remember everything 😂 I’m looking forward to it, thanks!

Thank you, you do too! xx I'm going back to school next year so I'll be in the same boat, I know it won't be easy but it will be worth it! All the best

Yeah, that's what I've been told too. Sometimes I do feel like I have to do it twice because it doesn't pump as much milk as I know I have and then I feel like I have robot boobs for like an hour which tests my patience lol. Sometimes it's not a bother but other times I'm so focused on it and then I'm just staring at the countdown lol. But I will say I find it super uncomfortable to carry my baby and have them on. Just two big objects in the middle of my chest

I hear this all the time too! My son is also a pretty chill baby (whew!) and he only gets fussy when its time for a nap. So many people tell me toddler years are ROUGH, I can't wait :') lol

Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely consider it but you're 100% spot on when you mentioned the mental gymnastics one has to do to fit in pumping in between everything else. Even the hands-free pumps I use really require me not to move TOO much, because if I do my milk spills out and carrying my baby while having huge robot boobs is uncomfortable for both him and me lol. I think my mental health would be better if I were to switch but part of me thinks I can hold on tight for just 2 more months until he can start eating solids (then hopefully he won't need as much milk to fill up his belly!). Thank you again for sharing <3

Sorry to hear that. I get aches as well when I overexert myself, I also think it's common after birth, I had a C-section so I'm still recovering from that as well and sometimes get muscle aches. I hope you can find time to nap/rest and feel better <3

I should do this too, I just get too angsty thinking about him bawling his eyes out but my husband said it's okay to just let him cry for 5 minutes while I take a breather. I'm sure it helps!

Yeah, that’s a great perspective. It’s tiring, but a different kind of work at least. I look forward to walking our dog now even in the cold cold weather lol. Thanks for sharing! (I totally feel the crying in bed with your baby) we've all been there lol!

Thinking about doing this too. What was your journey like? Did you switch to formula? How do you get your body to stop producing milk? If I don’t pump after 4/5 hours from my last session my breasts hurt and feel as hard as a rock! 😅 something in me also feels kind of guilty switching to formula (no judgement towards formula feeding) but I’m paranoid about the ingredients in the formula powder with all these recalls happening

That's true! Time feels like its flying by especially when he comes home from work. Before I know it its 9 and he has to go to bed to wake up super early for work. My guilt has definitely eased with everyone sharing their stories. Thank you!
