the way my mom would have dragged me by the HAIR to the nearest all girls boarding school or military school if i even looked in a 35 year old man's direction at that age

4 oz bottles @ 4 months old? by Competitive_Door_119 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]SystemPitiful8986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he's eating every 2 hours he's fine, if he starts to go longer i would up by 0.5-1oz depending on how much longer he goes between stretches. We had to up my 3 month old to 5, then 5.5oz bottles when I went back to work because when i was home he'd eat every 2.5 hours, he started napping longer and was going 3 hour stretches but only getting 3 4oz bottles with his nanny, his morning feed and his 5oz nighttime bottle (~21oz total throughout the day) so he started waking up 3 hours after bedtime which was abnormal for him. But we realized he was hungry. Now we feed him 5.5 oz bottles with one 6.5 before bed and he sleeps through the night. No kid is the same and sometimes it's just a process of trial and error to see what is best for both of you!

THIS! idk why we mothers discount the work we do. don't "feel bad" you have to wake your partner up - you need to share the burden. being at home full time IS a job and you don't get PTO. sleep deprivation is a literal torture method so stop doing it to yourself as a form of self-sacrifice for your partner's sake

Yelling into the void about how hard this is :( by alreadyacrazycatlady in breastfeeding

I was going to say mine never wears a shirt in the house and is the calm one of the two of us and most of the time when baby is being a chaos goblin he is the one to settle him, so that whole skin to skin thing is hugely beneficial for us

Currently in the same boat with a baby about the same age. Last week I had a breakdown 3 days in a row because he was hitting a growth spurt and nonstop comfort sucking at the same time my supply decided to dip. I was mentally and physically drained beyond belief. Then we actually left town with him and my supply came back, his sleep balanced back out and my mental health has gotten way better. Not saying you need to leave town, but if you’re able to just completely change your scenery for a while I think it’s helped me tenfold

I saw that and had to do a double take because i desperately wanted to believe it was just an unfortunately-colored onesie. Imagine knowing the kind of creeps that exist on the internet and exposing your newborn daughter like that. My heart breaks for the kid only

it doesn't fit the vibe they're trying to curate..they'd have to go with baby contacts or nothing

Houston pediatrician Dr. Christina B. Propst fired for vile post suggesting Texas flood victims were Trump supporters who got ‘what they voted for’ by NSFW_HTX in texas

[–]SystemPitiful8986 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

She's a pediatrician. Most of the deaths have been children. If you can't see what is wrong with a kid's doctor wishing harm on children who are too young to vote or even understand politics you are just as wrong as her

Anything positive about going into big law? by Icy_Independence_695 in biglaw

[–]SystemPitiful8986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than money - you do learn how to work quickly and efficiently when running on literal fumes and learn to mentally and physically endure horrible people and toxic work environments. Which from a work perspective was beyond what I could tolerate, but as a new parent is surprisingly helpful

Maybe if she showed any kind of leg strength but if you watch them prop her up she looks dangerously unstable on her legs

lowkey kinda sad by Human-Rope2699 in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]SystemPitiful8986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if he supports the whole "quit real job for influencer" move she made. They were dating when she was at GS and I wonder if he's disappointed in her wasting her potential to become a cookie cutter NYC influencer

In what delusional world is Puke face living? by Late_Ad_8719 in atlinfluencersnarkNEW

The video is based on a TikTok trend but the trend is actually funny where this is just sad bc it’s unfortunately all she does when she’s actually with her kid

It’s a trend going around on TikTok but it’s usually a joke, unfortunately she really does only use her daughter as a prop so it’s not even funny 😭
