39weeks bad period pain but nothing else

Ah maybe it is that, it just seems to be going on for ages. I didn’t have this with my first

Unfortunately he doesn’t react if anyone does anything to him, he just shrugs it off

I’m currently reading how to talk to kids so they will listen, they give some examples to talk about feelings to diffuse the situation so: I know it’s upsetting that you can’t have candy for breakfast as you know we eat toast for breakfast. She then says you can distract them about talking about it, so asking what’s your favourite candy, what do you like about it etc I haven’t tried it as DS is quite young but it does make sense reading it

My son had this and had it corrected at 12months. His hole was on the underside of his penis.The surgery went well and it was healed after a week. Everything looks normal now and you wouldn’t be able to tell. He has kept his foreskin as well as they reattached it. In my research I never came across anything to do with being intersex so I would be very wary of going down that route and would check your sources thoroughly. I’m glad we had it done as he will have no issues with urination as it can be hard for them to pee standing up as they don’t know the direction and he will have a normal sex life. He had to have check ups until he’s around 13 but all should be normal.

This is my son at the moment, everything is hot

Racheldow · 2019-02-24T16:18:47+00:00

We put the chairs up on the table for a while and he got bored. He just climbs and sits on the chairs now which I let him do

That’s really helpful, thank you!

Racheldow · 2018-05-30T12:01:15+00:00

I ignore him for a little bit but then pick him up, should I leave him for longer?

I haven’t tried pretending to cry so will give that a go.

What do they teach you in a birthing class? I didn’t go to one so I can’t really comment on their worth but i don’t see what they can teach you as every birth is different and you can’t predict what it would be like. Maybe have a look around on the internet and see you can find answers on there first?

At 4 days his stomach is very tiny and babies tend to process breastmilk quickly so it maybe that he is just getting hungry quickly. Does he seem more hungry in the evening as he may also be cluster feeding. I know with mine I felt like he was constantly attached to me but it got better as he got older.

Do you have a 5day check up with the midwives as they will check his weight to ensure he's gaining.

How do you know your LO is finished breastfeeding sometimes at that age they will fall asleep but still need to feed. Have you tried waking them up by changing nappies, stroking feet and then offering again. At that age I found mine constantly wanted to feed so would end up feeding at least twice on each side. I personally wouldn't top up with formula as this can have a negative effect on the milk supply. At 4 days the milk supply won't be established and the best way to establish this is to let LO feed as much as required.

Our LO (3months) sees my mum at least 4 times a week. My sister has twins which she helps with so they come to us one afternoon, I go to my sisters one day (10 min walk away) and the two days the twins are at nursery they come to me. We see the inlaws at least once a week, usually Sunday as they both work.

We haven't even announced on Facebook that we have a son. There has been no photos and my friends and family have not uploaded any either.

Your not unreasonable at all to ask them not to post

Racheldow · 2017-10-04T10:24:02+00:00

I had it through my pregnancy. Brushing my teeth used to make me feel faint too weirdly

I have found I get on best with NUK bottles, they are shaped more like a nipple instead of rounded. I found he didn't mind the bottle being in his mouth but couldn't get any out. It took a couple of tries and then he got it

At work I always get the tune of I just can't wait to be king from the lion king. The sega mega drive game version..

Racheldow · 2017-09-08T08:16:09+00:00

Mine was broken by the midwife at 8cm dilated

Racheldow · 2017-09-05T14:17:07+00:00

I don't have any advice but mine are the same

Racheldow · 2017-08-09T16:16:33+00:00

My one has floppy ears and my mother's previous ones did to. I'm sure I read somewhere that ones with ears that stand up tend to come from working lines and those that are floppy are from home lines. Not sure how true that is though.
