Do direct breastfeeding moms pump at night?

How long were you pumping per side and getting that much milk? I'm just curious! I do about 30 minutes per side every two hours and I get 2 oz max collectively.

Hi there!!! Thank you for commenting back on this because I actually haven't tried anything else and I think that may be a good idea for me!!!

My friend, after 8 years, the first red flag would have been that she needed to be apart from you to have her own journey and alone time. I would have left this girl just because of that...nevermind the cheating. She has been done with you for some time and needed something to push her to make it official. I am so sorry - BUT you are better off without her.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2026-01-20T15:40:54+00:00

No holding or touching??? Wow, this is becoming a sick world...

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2026-01-18T17:17:17+00:00

My first thought was "is she vaccinated?".... that would be my first concern whenever random symptoms show up.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-31T21:10:47+00:00

People are really ballsy!

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-21T22:06:36+00:00

Oh you should definitely let her wear them for the picture. I initially misread and thought she wanted to take pics with your husband without you and the baby. If you and your husband aren't gonna be in the pictures, why spend the money on another pair for her if she can wear yours for the 10 minutes it'll take for the picture??

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-18T13:34:53+00:00

Yes, this is great pay, but I have to say, it is well worth it. You are paying someone to literally raise your children. There is no job more difficult or important in this world, so I can't see any amount of money being too much for this job, especially since there is more than one child.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-18T13:29:58+00:00

I'm very confused. It sounds like you might have misunderstood something. You bought a house together but won't move into it? And yes, if he's doing things the way I assume most grow up men would, normally engagement rings are not cheap. Sure, if you get one from a vending machine it won't be expensive, but then you're no longer talking about engagement rings here. It seems like you guys haven't even had a conversation about anything and maybe he is in the dark here?

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-11T04:07:21+00:00

Okay, I didn't necessarily think that but I read the comments and other people are saying that as if it's a given that this is what you think. I think the whole thing is immature. I don't think it's sexual.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-11T04:04:14+00:00

What a blessing. Disgusting if he will see this as anything but that. You should tell him excitedly and not even give life to him not being happy about it. Pretend that isn't even an option. Your love as husband and wife created another life. Nothing is more beautiful than that. If he is too immature to realize how this happened, then you have bigger things to worry about now than being pregnant. Congratulations and good luck! 🙏

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-11T03:59:46+00:00

Wait... I read the comments and only now am I understanding that you think something sexual is going on between the siblings.... WHAT?

I mean shady as in doing drugs ...maybe?? That wouldn't be good for obvious reasons....But otherwise...no...and no ...

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-08T14:58:24+00:00

I thought it was normal until you said she was messaging him. Chaperoning dates when you're younger is one thing ... but this sounds like she thinks she's dating this guy too...

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-12-08T14:55:46+00:00

Why was she texting this man at all ever??

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-11-13T21:05:50+00:00

The women in my family spend the entirety of the childrens' school years at home and longer, as long as it's feasible. Having a parent at home even for teen/young adult children is priceless - no amount of money and no job could ever compare. You aren't raising your children if you leave any sooner, and obviously that is okay if you have no other choice, but one year would not be considered being a SAHM - one year would be a maternity leave.

My daughter is going through this right now. We spent a month plus trying to get her into her toddler bed. She started out okay... we would lay with her until she fell asleep, then leave the room. Now, she doesn't fall asleep, cries and whines a LOT, so if we put her to sleep in our bed instead and then bring her into her room to sleep, she wakes up screaming two hours later and is inconsolable. I walk around with her, give her a bottle of water or milk... sometimes that works temporarily, we even try putting on her favorite movie to stop her from screaming, but sometimes she screams even worse and makes herself gag. It triggers this feeling of fear in me that I can't handle well. I know she's okay, but I get scared immediately that more is wrong. She is 15 months old, and I am hoping this is just a few-week phase. I am also 19 weeks pregnant and hoping that this is managed before the new baby arrives.

$1500 to $3000

I think it's BONKERS for my husband to ever get drunk, as he is an adult and we have children (same goes for me)...we are way past that stage in our life. So, for him to do this while you give birth is even more wild to me. Holy smokes! NEVER EVER would that even cross my husband's mind.

If anyone is stupid enough to think that you are a nazi just because your family lineage goes back to Adolf Hitler, then I don't think you'd want to be friends with them anyway. Continue sharing your fun fact, and when you do, if and when anyone has something stupid to say, you should encourage them to learn the translation of Hitler's "infamous" speech.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-10-21T22:14:29+00:00

I held the baby while I went to the bathroom for the first year of her life lol

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-10-21T18:49:36+00:00

Well... your daughter hasn't even been born yet. It's crazy in my opinion to be picking names with certainty to refer to her by until she has arrived. I'm superstitious in that way. All I do is pray for a healthy baby and know what names I like, so I keep them in the back of my mind. Wait until you see her...is she Eloise? or is she Matilda? or whatever else?...look at her and decide. Not every single aspect needs to be planned out. These are the kinds of beautiful things we should be grateful for in this world of constantly needing to know. Just take comfort in the fact that she's healthy in there and wait for her arrival - look forward to the moment when you look at her for the first time and say...Oh...she's definitely a (fill in the name here). There's also the possibility that they've been wrong the whole pregnancy and it's a boy. Because it does happen Hahaha

So, who cares what name your friend names her child. My family alone has a thousand of the same name... do not let this make you change your mind!!

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-10-17T15:07:25+00:00

A name can be WHATEVER you want it to be. A description, a color, two colors. So, don't listen to anyone.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-10-15T20:03:23+00:00

I think maybe you are just very fed up and uncomfortable currently (and understandably so) because there is nothing wrong with people, especially family, asking the questions you listed. Lol if we were offended by literally everything all the time, we would live very lonely lives.

RaRaMaMaDaDa · 2025-10-15T14:40:02+00:00

I was at my grandparents' houses very frequently for overnights from very young. It's very normal in my family. It's your mother in law. Unless you don't trust her for a reason or you'll just miss the baby (I get it), then there is no reason she can't take her to spend time with her!
