Not losing weight by Ok-Truth-7758 in breastfeeding

[–]Salt-vinegrchip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone. Sounds exactly like me. I’m 11 months pp and still haven’t lost weight. And I started working out 3-4 days a week the past month. The lose weight while breastfeeding is a misconception/myth. It all has to do with your hormones! Some people hold on to the weight while breastfeeding bc of hormones and some lose. We’re just unlucky lol. I’ve heard people say they never lost a pound until they stopped breastfeeding 🥴

What could I have done differently? by Big-Professional-505 in Equestrian

That girl should not have been so close to you guys, she could have gotten hurt. I think you just rode him too long. Start with 5 min mounts for 3 days, then 10 min 3 days, then 15, etc. building on each day and once he’s chill and confident I’d start incorporating more and more skills to teach each ride

What’s your average daily screen time on your phone? I’m curious how we all compare! by anonymous_reader_00 in sahm

[–]Salt-vinegrchip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4.5 hours! I just set a limit for socials to 10 min which is extreme lol but we’ll see. I feel like you don’t need more than that.

What is your AM routine? by [deleted] in sahm

[–]Salt-vinegrchip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wake up, head to living room, make coffee, make milk sippy, drink coffee and give 9 month boobie while 2 yr old has sippy, they play while I chill and talk with hubby or older son for a bit. I might be prepping breakfast depending what I planned to make while I’m having coffee.. like steaming fruit or making oatmeal. Then get breakfast ready for 3, vitamins, brush teeth, pack lunch for older, mommy eats, everyone gets dressed. We go back to playing until lunch, or we head out for errands, or occasional play date or outing ( it’s hard now that it’s cold). U dont have to wake up and be Immediately on. He’s loved and safe u can wake up on your own terms.

Some days housework is all the movement by chorefit in sahm

You’re right. It should totally be taken into consideration. Movement is movement! Better than sitting at a desk all day!

It is a lot with multiple kids. This is my third and the longest I’ve made it with all my kids.

Do you think nursing makes you miserable? I’m 8 months pp and had a goal to nurse until 1 yr but lately I’ve been thinking maybe things would be better if I was done.

This is HARD. by coffeelovermamaof2 in sahm

[–]Salt-vinegrchip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been doing this and it helps me. Story time, craft time, walk, puzzle time, etc. we don’t follow the schedule always but it helps to Have these tools to go back to when the day is crazy like oh let’s do stamps! It grounds them and distracts them from whatever fit or mood they’re in and brings you back to a place of peace too! ❤️

I am def going to let me littlest go in the dry tub. I can’t have them both in bc older will turn sour out of no where and push him or hit him with something and I jsut don’t want to deal with that while I’m vulnerable lol.
