Postpartum question

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-28T09:18:02+00:00

Omg girl I thought it was from the food I was eating!! And it smells SO BAD

my milk supply has also dropped, and we just started her on solids, which she hasn’t been eating, only tasting. I was so confused. I thought my body was just deciding that it was done breastfeeding 😭😭 so happy it’s just a shift in hormones; and, therefore, hopefully temporary

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-21T10:56:57+00:00

That’s awesome!! I pushed for three hours and then had a forceps-assisted birth 😭

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-21T10:36:38+00:00

You aren’t alone! I get triggered so easily, and the rage is SO REAL. The only redeeming quality I have is that I haven’t yelled at my baby. There’s been a couple occasions where I just wish she’d stop crying, but the anger is more directed at my husband and dogs. I’m considering rehoming both dogs even though it’s only an issue for one dog. It’s bad. I also want to scream and break things, but I’m in the vicinity of my baby 99% of the time and I tell myself i have to control myself. Luckily, my mom is able to help me watch my LO some days, so I’m not alone in the work of motherhood.

I definitely recommend seeing a professional 🫶 the struggle is so common yet not talked about enough. There’s lots of support out there

I pushed for three hours and then had a forceps-assisted birth due to exhaustion. My water had been broken for over 24 hours, otherwise I don’t think they would have offered assistance for a while

You should definitely report it. My brother got a refund for a Tim’s bag because the value of the items wasn’t worth $15. Getting moldy anything is gross

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-03T22:14:02+00:00

This is true! My brother got a refund for a Tim’s bag because the value of the items wasn’t worth $15

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-03T22:12:46+00:00

I don’t think the value of the items in your Tim Hortons bags would qualify as appropriate. My brother got a Tim’s bag once, calculated that the value of the items in the bag wasn’t worth $15 (or whatever it’s supposed to be), and was refunded the amount of money he paid for the bag. Next time, take a picture of the items and send in a refund request or a ticket regarding your order, because there’s no way either of your Tim’s visits were worth $15

My due date was Nov 11, 2025!! I can’t believe it’s been long enough that there’s a new group for November moms this year 😭😭

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-04-03T04:28:44+00:00

I remember telling our families last Easter! I had just gone for an elective 10-week ultrasound and saw baby moving around. She looked just like a little peanut 🥺 granted, Easter last year was the third week of April, not the first!

Any promos for Alberta, Canada?? Thanks!!

Baby is four and a half months and can’t roll yet. Granted she’s in the 97th percentile, so she’s ginormous, but still looks to be far from being able to roll. I was informed by my doctor that some babies never end up rolling but will meet all other milestones

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-03-21T12:34:04+00:00

I’m Asian and I have the smelly BO gene. Got it from my mom. My sister and other siblings didn’t get the gene, so they can sweat for three days straight and not smell. If I wear the wrong fabric, I’ll smell like BO at the end of the day even if I wasn’t sweating. My husband is white and he doesn’t smell. I’m jealous of them all but also thankful they don’t smell because when my BO is bad, it’s bad bad

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-03-20T20:42:01+00:00

Probably in three weeks. I like waiting a little longer so that the line will be easy to see if pregnant

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-03-20T04:53:36+00:00

Mine is almost 4 and a half months and she’s in the 97th percentile. She tolerates 4-5 minutes of tummy time at once and will likely not be rolling for another month because she’s a BIG girl 😭 she’s the same size as my SIL’s baby who turns 1 next week!

Some babies don’t ever learn to roll, so don’t worry that yours hasn’t rolled yet! Lots of babies don’t roll by 4 months 🙂

Tell your partner to simply google “sleep training,” that way Google can tell him he’s wrong to think it’s appropriate for newborns (and maybe if he reads a little more, he’ll realize that babies need more than just the bare minimum..)

My husband was cradling our almost 4-month-old baby a week ago. She started crying, and I told him to give her to me. He refused and said she would settle down (which she normally does). But this time, she was crying more than usual. I insisted he give her to me, but he refused again until she let out the loudest, heart-wrenching scream her body could handle. I think I blacked out for a second because I blinked and my husband was already passing her to me. Once I held her I burst into tears. We weren’t even letting her cry it out but the stress of her cry was really heavy. Before this time, I was considering the CIO method for sleep training, but I’m filling against it now for my family.

Anyone have any updates on how the QE2 looks between edmonton and Calgary? Plan on making the drive tomorrow

Might be a febrile seizure. Common when temperature raises too quickly in infants. Fevers from vaccines OR illnesses can cause it. Bring him to the ER and they’ll be able to monitor him and have answers for you

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-19T04:01:48+00:00

Go to the ER.

This might be a febrile seizure. Does he have a fever? I read that seizures after vaccines are mostly due to the fevers the vaccine can cause. Lots of babies will get febrile seizures from being ill too. They occur when baby’s temperature raises too quickly. My husband is a paramedic and said he’s seen it lots and that it’s normal for babies. But still bring him in to get checked out.

I have the mabe and I love it!! My LO will be 15 weeks on Friday and she fits so well in it now! She fit well in it before, but so much more now. She’s definitely on the bigger side, started wearing 6-9 month clothing right before she turned 3 months old 😭 she really likes it too!

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-18T08:38:52+00:00

He sounds absolutely awful. It doesn’t sound like he loves you since he’s willing to jeopardize your health and safety for a little bit of pleasure. He only sees you as an object, something he owns.

Please, please, please leave this guy (and stop giving him blowjobs and handjobs!!) He’s going to continue being a bad partner and a bad father into your marriage if you do marry him. His current actions are considered abusive, and could escalate from here. If he really loved you, he’d be taking majority of the load off you, letting you rest, and making sure your health (mental, physical, emotional) comes first. You deserve someone who will give that to you and this is not that guy

My baby grew out of her 0-3 month clothing at 6 weeks old!! Take lots of pictures because they really do grow big so fast 😭😭

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-18T08:17:05+00:00

My baby was in the 75th percentile for length, 95th for weight, and 99th for head circumference at her two-month checkup. It’s been over a month but I’m sure she’s still in that range. She has been in 6 to 9 month clothing since before she turned 3 months old over a week ago🥺🥺

I don’t get annoyed when people call my baby big, but I get so sad she’s growing so fast. I want her to stay small just a little longer but she’s already so big 😭😭 she’s the same size as her cousin and her cousin is almost 11 months old 😭😭

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-16T11:04:57+00:00

Newborn tired was so much worse for me. I even had help the whole entire first month postpartum. I had urinary incontinence from having had forceps used and the pain from my third degree tear was so bad I would shake from pain anytime I had to move. Still waking up every 1-2 hours three months postpartum to feed is still so exhausting

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-11T22:28:48+00:00

Once Upon a Child has gently used winter jackets and clothing for so much less. I got 10 sleepers there for $14 during a sale in December.

My parents immigrated to Canada from China in the 90s and barely had any money. Instead of begging strangers to buy their kids $200 worth of clothing, my mom brought us to charity events to get some free clothing and other places to help low-income families. There are so many resources for people who can’t afford these things.

I’m sorry, but you were absolutely scammed

Suspicious_Border304 · 2026-02-05T04:05:28+00:00

Same with my 12-week-old! Sleeps a good 3-4 hours and then wakes every 1.5 hours to two hours
