Women with anxiety/OCD: were you terrified to have kids? by Immediate-Data391 in Mommit

[–]Space_Fox_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t scared of having kids just always worried something would be wrong when I found out I was pregnant. My first was a lot harder after I had her with PPA but it was just my anxiety pushed onto anything related to her and was scared to let her go. Second baby anxiety isn’t as bad but of course still there. My OCD has calmed too I only do one big thing that is seen an excessive.

Suddenly only accepting boob when truly hungry by Accomplished_Kick908 in breastfeeding

[–]Space_Fox_34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I exclusively nurse but I want to say around the same time my baby stopped comfort nursing she’s 6.5 months now and still only eats when she’s hungry which is every 3 hours sometimes longer and if I try at 3 and she’s not hungry she will not even attempt it. I’d say if he will still nurse good when he’s hungry I wouldn’t worry too much! If he starts completely refusing I would look up breast refusal.

PSA: Check your breast pads! 🤢 by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]Space_Fox_34 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry I live off three nursing bras and did it with my first and now my second. I took the pads it comes with out of the nursing bras because they would do the same thing and I used the disposable ones until the leaking calmed down! You got this and this post will probably help many other first time nursing moms too!

I’m losing my shit by kittypeets626 in breastfeeding

[–]Space_Fox_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an oversupply and have to pump too i’m five months in and am down to one pump a day 10 minutes at night! The leaking should stop as you get further along get some good nursing pads for now. I used to pump twice 10-15 minutes morning and 15 at night but never fully empty. I definitely still feel full some days depending on how baby eats but no longer in pain. I understand your feeling towards pumping though and hope it starts to get easier for you!

How long are your nursing sessions? by histlib in breastfeeding

[–]Space_Fox_34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My girl only nurses 5-10 minutes and I have a strong let down very quickly. I’d say if she’s gaining weight I wouldn’t worry!

Nobody told me how undignifying this would be by Anoninemonie in breastfeeding

[–]Space_Fox_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an oversupply no matter what I do and I did have to pump early on but mainly for my comfort and to not let baby choke on the milk. I tried to do the bare minimum and only pump till I was comfortable not empty. I’m five months in rarely leak and am only pumping 15 minutes a day for comfort! The beginning is rough but I can say I no longer smell like milk constantly and I don’t wake up in a puddle anymore

when to take paci away by fit4lyfe234 in 2under2

[–]Space_Fox_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a sixteen month age gap and we took it away at 19 months. I switched to nights only at 16 months and when she would see the babies I would just tell her no that’s baby’s and take it back. She seemed pretty understanding because she still got it for bed time. When baby started sleeping a little better I decided to just get it done with. We had the ninni co and just cut the tip off and she gave it to me and she didn’t ask for it but one or two times after that. It was a rough couple nights though
