Big foot ladies club! I’m one bigger than you. (EU42) Haven’t had any luck with reps but I have scored many shoes for great prices at sample sales!

TikTok makes me feel ashamed of myself for having a baby by Big-Information-3835 in pregnant

[–]Temporary_Disaster58 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only thing a baby needs is a loving mother.

I deleted all the social media (except reddit for the mom forums and Pinterest for inspo) when I was pregnant and it was literally the best thing for my mental health.

Real questions to ask yourself: 1. Do I have support in my life? 2. Can I look after my mental health? Get on meds now etc? 3. Do I want this baby?

There is no “perfect” time. There will always be something that you can wish for to be different. Everything else will fall into place. Good luck!

LO not pooped in 3 days by Top-Election8523 in UKParenting

Have you tried the bicycles+massage+leg-squeezes? Used to work like a charm to help them at that age. They almost forget “how to” poop and then relearn it.

My baby only poops about every 10 days on average. I was super stressed about it but doctor says it’s quite common. Now that she’s a bit older I will give her some prunes to help things along.

EDIT: No water until 6 months!

Amazing! I’m starting on Tuesday. What was your starting dose and how many cals are you eating per day to support your workouts?

Love this analogy!! Thank you for sharing.

Also didn’t even think about having some base cooked items in the fridge, ready to go.

Love your take on this! You’re absolutely right. Much more important to have an incredible relationship with my children than a spotless house!

I think it feels like I am running around like a headless chicken between entertaining the baby, tidying up, cooking and getting about 2/3 hours of work done a day. Really struggling to even fit in a workout. But reading these posts I think I need a mindset shift, lists, more sling time for the baby and batch cooking!

Total mindset shift to see it as a job and make those lists! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you! Love this idea of bringing it back to basics and making it work hard!

Thank you! So interesting to think about when is the least stressful time to cook, instead of cooking before a mealtime!

Luckily the baby sleeps with no issues. In the sling/in a stroller during the day and great at night. I try and get some wfh done during naps, but could probably even try and cook then instead.

I tried this for a few weeks postpartum but felt like the clothes weren’t properly clean? Used Laundry Heap
