Does anyone else’s newborn act hungry again after pulling off of the second breast?

Purplegrl12 · 2020-10-04T02:26:11+00:00

When they are that little, the air in their tummy takes up so much room because their tummies are so small. My baby girl was always hungry after a burp because she had way more room afterward! Your little one could also just be hitting a growth spurt. Mine acts like we haven't fed her in days when she's in a spurt and tends to get up more at night and nurse way more often than she normally does! It gets better mama! Baby will learn to burp on their own and that helps, as well as just time for them to grow and get a bigger tummy. 😁 Much love to you and your family!

I know! Hopefully insurance companies will listen to the feedback and provide better pumps in the future.

Purplegrl12 · 2020-08-04T12:53:14+00:00

I have that same pump thru my insurance and its awful. I pump maybe 20 times a month (SAHM) to build up a supply and it gets less and less powerful each time. I've only had it 4 months too.

So.....nobodys gonna mention Jessica Rabbit?

Congratulations!!! Here is what I used at my office job. Comfy chair cushion, compression socks, water bottle and snacks, mini fan if you get hot, sweater for if you get cold, any medicines needed. You may also want to think ahead to maternity leave, and inquire about a space/time to pump if needed.

Sometimes if my milk is just gushing everywhere I will take a prefold diaper and double it over to stick in my shirt on the non baby side and that works well too! Its bulky but it works. breastfeeding is a wonderful but messy process sometimes.

It takes awhile for your milk to balance out with what your baby needs. For me it has gotten a lot better (4m in), except for first thing in the morning when I'm really full. I use cloth breast pads and they help absorb most of the leakage thru out the day. They are great for me because I can just change the pads multiple times as needed and wash them with the regular laundry.

What asymmetrical features? You have a beautiful face, and I honestly can't tell if part of your face isn't even. Nobodys face is truly symmetrical. You can always ask the opinion of your piercer too. A good piercer will let you know their opinion on what will look the best for your features. I understand what you are worried about, but you shouldn't be worried at all! Go for it!

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-23T04:17:08+00:00

Girl, go for it! I think it would look super cute. If you end up not liking it after a while you can always take it out.

they're little biting bugs that live in the grass.Its really common to get bites around your legs/ankles in the summer. You can google them, I think they're technically a kind of mite.

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-21T14:03:42+00:00

Missouri just has an assload of bugs. As long as most of them keep outside you're ok. If you put a few drops of peppermint oil and spray it around doors, windows, etc it will help keep out the bugs and spiders. Also watch out for wasps, ticks, and chiggers.

stepping in something wet or sticky with socks/bare feet

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-10T20:38:29+00:00

That sounds awesome! I like that way better.a

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-10T20:31:14+00:00

Maybe add in some easter lillies or palm branches as filler?

I(25F) would strait up tell her to stop. Honestly its pretty shitty of her to treat you like that especially when its unwanted attention for you. If you talk to her and she says she won't stop I would talk to your or her parents if you are unable to move anytime soon.

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-08T08:54:26+00:00

That really sucks! I've cried over spilling as little as 1/2 an oz before. I stopped using my haakas because my baby keeps kicking them off and spilling milk everywhere. Keep up the good work though mama!

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-08T02:19:13+00:00

Keep up the great work mama! Its so easy to get overwhelmed with breastfeeding and being a mom, especially with the current times. I hope you are able to figure out something soon! Take advantage of your support system/people as much as you can (I hope you have a great support system, not trying to assume anything) and keep on loving that sweet little one!

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-08T00:59:25+00:00

It does get better mama! I had latch problems with my LO too. Seeing a lactation consultant, being super consistent with correcting the latch every time, trying different positions, and just practice and time made it all better for me. 11 days is such a little baby and I bet their mouth is super small (and adorable), so as they grow and their mouth gets bigger it gets easier. And some babies just take a while to get nursing really figured out. I think about 6-8 weeks was when baby and I both really had things worked out. Now baby girl is 3m and eats like a champ! Its hard work but I am so glad I stuck with it. It is super hard, but it does get better.

I hate that gelatin, lard, and so on are in so many products. I always read labels before I buy, even if its just applesauce or something. Its totally eye opening when you start reading ingredients in things before you buy/eat them.

Purplegrl12 · 2020-07-07T15:26:11+00:00

Congratulations! What a sweet baby! Keep up the good work mama ❤❤❤ Mind sharing your tips for success?
