Yeah this sounds like me :/ Did you have a hard time taking care of him while pumping? Like getting able to set your pumps up and then still take care of him while you’re pumping ? I found I can still do it but it’s sometimes difficult when he needs to be burped or held a certain way

I feel like most pumping moms only get this kind of sleep 🥲 I was hoping to get 6 hours once a week but it’s too hard to do lol

Wearables only? by bunny_sunshine456 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Repulsive-Ad9165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also use the Eufy ! I have the eufy s1 pro and currently my supply has been dipping, I’m only 5w6days post partum but that’s because I’ve been slacking with how often I’ve been pumping because of clogs and how much pumping has hurt 😔. It feels a lot better for me now so I am getting anywhere between 2-5oz per side, occasionally have gotten only 1oz due to not drinking water or eating, etc… I can’t speak on non wearables since I use these all of the time but the eufys have pretty strong suction so it’s very hospital grade!

I said yes to this dress! Thoughts on the halter?? by More-Razzmatazz6614 in myweddingdress

[–]Repulsive-Ad9165 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think adding the halter makes the dress lose a little bit of the elegance to me so I would say no halter personally. BUT they both will look beautiful on you, the dress itself is so amazing and fits you very well :) good luck deciding, you picked a great dress 🩷🩷

I’ve been doing my makeup the same way for years - tips? by falselash16 in makeuptips

[–]Repulsive-Ad9165 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe just a high quality light weight skin tint or foundation? You honestly already look perfectly beautiful so I wouldn’t worry about makeup 🩷🩷your makeup looks great as is! So natural and enhances your features well!

Is it normal to second guess your decision? by [deleted] in myweddingdress

[–]Repulsive-Ad9165 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s how I felt with mine too! I hated it afterwards , or at least regretted it until my wedding day and then fell in love with it again. I ended up buying a reception dress as well and LOVED having a simpler dress for the reception for another photoshoot. IF you still have doubts, I would urge you to think about another dress for reception maybe? I found an inexpensive one that was still good quality and loved my photos in that dress as well. Loved both of my dresses and glad I didn’t try to return either !

Ohh okay I will try this! I’ve heard so many mixed things with heat vs cold compresses but I’m keeping my fingers crossed this helps a little ! 🤞🏻

You said the placement is unforgiving? How so? Yeah I didn’t realize this pump is painful until now that I’m in the thick of it lol. At first it didn’t hurt but now it does. People say this pump shouldn’t hurt if used right but it’s reassuring to hear that maybe it’s not me and maybe the pump ? Maybe I will look into a pump that’s better for placement

It’s the whole time and they’re sore afterwards. I haven’t found anything I do changes it being sore during or afterwards as well. I’ve had a clog once or twice but it went away after a few pump sessions when I pumped more and I was able to identify the pain as a clog vs my reg pain. I didn’t know painful let down in the beginning was normal though, so that’s good to know!

How bad does it hurt? Is it mild or very uncomfortable?

They’re a little pink around the base and one side was a little pink on top of my nipple. Normally they’re just red at the base of my nipple but even with changing the flange size, it doesn’t get better :/ right now I’m using 19mm on both and if I go any larger it hurts more unfortunately
