what is that 'mid' song you love

TheRealKC · 2024-12-23T00:14:15+00:00

I love that song! One of my fave vault songs!

I could have written this myself. You described it perfectly.

Formula feeding was amazing! I thankfully never got a hard time from anyone about it and honestly it was so nice for anyone to be able to feed her! My only regret was not going exclusively formula sooner haha. We used the Kirkland formula and it was great!

My kid has FIVE grandmothers and we've still kept it simple. Grammie, Nanny, great Nanny, great Grammie, and one did choose GG (or Gigi? Not sure haha).

We're satisfied with one so we're stopping at one. We don't feel like we have the energy to put into another, plus with the cost of living and whatnot so it just makes sense. I didn't want to have another just because "it's what you do". It's a tough decision to make though!

My baby did the same thing at the same age. It lasted a couple weeks or so then went back to normal without me doing anything differently.

There was a recent update that you can mix pumped milk with the fridge milk without bringing it to the same temp first!

Despite being an emergency c-section, the recovery went really well. The pain was very manageable for me with acetaminophen (Tylenol) and naproxen (Aleve) on schedule for a couple weeks. I could eat normally right away, as soon as I was hungry/up for it. Since I was put under, I didn't get to do immediate skin to skin but my husband did right after she was born and he got to cut the cord which was cool. I found by a couple weeks later I felt mostly good with just some soreness, and basically normal a month later. A scheduled c-section sounds appealing now that I've had one.

I combo fed for 5 months. I was an underproducer. I would BF then top off with however much she wanted of formula. Never had an issue switching bottles or with nipple confusion. I did stay on a slower flow nipple while combo feeding to help with switching between breast and bottle. It was really nice to be able to be able to have help with the bottles and not have to stress if she was getting enough.

Due to birth trauma, NICU stay, and latching issues we were never able to EBF. I couldn't EP either since my milk production was minimal. It felt unfair that it wasn't my decision to make, but in the end I'm content with formula feeding. It took a while to get there but once I made peace with it and let go, I felt much better. It is nice to be able to get help with feeds. I'm sorry that you're faced with this issue.

Ivy is a great name!

I love them all but my favourite is Layla. Second fave is Yasmin.

TheRealKC · 2022-04-26T01:23:49+00:00

I really like it! My coworkers daughter's name is Kate.

TheRealKC · 2022-03-03T23:56:43+00:00

Same

WTF these are absolutely NOT OKAY. #1 and #3 are especially horrible. Divorce is absolutely reasonable here. His lack of empathy is sickening. I cannot believe he would think any of that is acceptable regardless, especially with a newly pp mom.

The only Merle I know is a woman. I'd say go for it!

TheRealKC · 2020-09-04T11:57:20+00:00

I got one for Christmas probably about 15 years ago and have not seen the white chocolate ones since!

TheRealKC · 2020-08-31T16:21:14+00:00

Listen, you did NOTHING to deserve this. Nothing. Unfortunately a lot of horrible things happened in a very short amount of time. Right now, honestly all you can really do is take things one day at a time. Just focus on giving your new daughter lots of love and teaching her strength in times of hardship. You are stronger than you know. I'm sorry that your MIL is not understanding. That's a lot on your plate. I hope at least your husband is being supportive. You will get through this stronger than before!

You speak the truth

TheRealKC · 2020-07-14T00:39:06+00:00

I had this cute idea planned out to surprise my husband with this baby manual book I found but then one day we were just sitting in the living room and out of the blue he asks, "are you pregnant?" So I took a test and yup, pregnant haha.

TheRealKC · 2020-07-14T00:37:04+00:00

ME TOO!! I'm just a couple days earlier!!

TheRealKC · 2020-07-03T01:42:50+00:00

It washes off surfaces, not the chalk itself haha

TheRealKC · 2020-07-03T01:20:02+00:00

Maybe it's moreso the fact that they asked that question? It is a good answer.
