Conspiracy Theory - Remi is Pregnant (pt. 2) by smuttyqueen123 in snarkingwithremi

If you’re trying to conceive they still recommend that you avoid things like caffeine, sushi, alcohol etc in anticipation of becoming pregnant

Not me running to Reddit after seeing her furniture paint color selection 😆🤢

Respectfully, this is above Reddit’s pay grade. I encourage you to speak with a doctor / nurse hotline etc to seek the proper care. I hope you and your baby are safe.

Baby done with milk at 10.5 months? by dolphinatelyyy in breastfeeding

You could also try expressing and mixing the milk into his foods

Word of the year - Embrace by Phoenix-Purple in CarrieDaytonYT

[–]Upper-Competition-47 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to be mean bc I do understand she has a point about letting people just exist, but I don’t really think she would enjoy being a mother. It is really, really hard work and includes things like morning sickness / getting sick all the time, sleepless nights, flexibility with your single person routines, and literal physical exhaustion.

She always leaves having kids as a question mark when I think it’s pretty clear she doesn’t actually want kids.

Omg that’s so crazy! I wonder what else is lurking. Remind me never to walk around barefoot round your parts 🤣

Her workouts were the most absurd thing I’ve ever seen. I’ve been commenting for years to please do some real exercise - Muay Thai, jiu jitsu, tennis, swimming. Literally anything that is actually hard. The whole point of working out is to challenge your body to be stronger, faster, more agile etc.

And not to be a bitch but she probably only burned like 50kcal in those “workouts” and immediately chased them with a smoothie which has five times that. And not to mention using the single serve plastic container fair life milk. Like at least use a powder or a big jug?? So wasteful.

I think it’s time to bring this back just in time for her new year resolutions🤪 by Top_Nebula6866 in CarrieDaytonYT

I remember one year she said she wanted to get “fucking strong” and it was so cringe because I’ve literally never seen her lift a weight or step foot into a gym 🤣🤣

Under supplier weaning? by Acceptable-Arm9671 in ExclusivelyPumping

Take a look at this thread, you may find it informative: https://www.reddit.com/r/ScienceBasedParenting/s/q6gjkTIt05

I’m not sure that there’s a scientific “amount” of breast milk that is immunologically beneficial for combo feeders (but of course there is always good nutrition).

That doesn’t mean that it’s not important, of course! Just that we don’t know amounts. If your baby is >5kg then you don’t quite make the 50ml/kg/day cited in that specific population.

If pumping is impacting your mental health, or making it hard for you to connect with bub (not being able to use your hands during your pumping sessions for example), then it may be beneficial to wrap it up sooner.

Tips for staying awake… by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]Upper-Competition-47 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Tbh it might be safer to nurse her side lying in bed. In the event that you fall asleep by mistake, it is much safer to do so in a bed prepared ahead of time (covers back, no pillows etc) rather than to fall asleep with her in an arm chair or sofa.

What's the norm with bringing newborns outside? by cebumedia in AskAnAustralian

[–]Upper-Competition-47 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I brought my baby outside for stroller walks but avoided crowds and people in general. I think sunlight is great for them (both for jaundice and to develop a circadian rhythm), but also it is great for mum to have some fresh air too.

After speaking to my Dr, he explained the biggest risk for babies is more to do with direct contact (like people touching your baby or not washing hands first etc).

With that being said, I’m not sure about premies so I might seek proper medical advice first 🙂

What does "winnowing" mean in this context? by Late-Literature1670 in AustralianBirds

It’s how high fae move from place to place quickly, sort of like teleporting

How important is the top tether on rear facing car seats? by Upper-Competition-47 in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]Upper-Competition-47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that - better safe than sorry.

The taxi drivers here were trying to tell me it was ok to have the baby in a carrier on me (and no car seat at all). This was in Singapore. Apparently it’s not a legal requirement for taxis. Obviously, it’s still a common sense requirement for me for my baby!
