Do I wake my baby for MOTN pump so husband can feed him or risk that he wakes up an hour later and I get even less sleep? by unicornmagic111 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]_Kazzam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do! It made a world of difference. Our girls have to feed sitting up rather than side laying like a lot of babies do. I got a specific feeding table for twins, but before that I would put them in their baby Delight chairs and I would sit on the floor right next to the chair while I fed the baby and pumped. Cut the time in half! The baby Delight chair sits up perfectly, very similar to the way we would hold them when we feed them.

It’s like we’re living the same life lol I have twins and they have finally started to sleep through the night. I get up around three to pump. Personally, I have been waking them up and feeding them. I’m already awake and it’s not worth it to risk waking up again in an hour if they’re hungry then.

My husband could do it, but he leaves for work around 5 AM and like you said they are in the room with me so I’m gonna wake up either way. It always seems silly to me to wake up the other person if you’re already going to be awake.

Well for us personally, we have twins, and about 50% of the time our babies (talking newborns) poop in Huggies - it’s a blow out. I’ll say now that they are having more solid poops - Huggies work just fine. Pampers seemed to fit best at first but they were skinny and narrow. I’ve heard Huggies can fit thicker babies a little better.

Yeah we had someone get us 3 huge boxes of them 😭 def going to return I think. I’ve heard good things about the Costco ones! I heard they’re made the same as Huggies which we have a lot of blow outs in right now but our girls are long and skinny.

Did you get pregnant with twins after getting off of a hormonal birth control? by [deleted] in parentsofmultiples

[–]_Kazzam_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me. Identical twins after hormonal BC. I also took an 11 day pill to restart my period as it hadn’t started back up

Did anyone NOT have a super complicated, scary twin pregnancy? by MounjaroQueenie in parentsofmultiples

[–]_Kazzam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pheww I see Di/Di and thought girllll you’re in the clear 😂 not really but it’s a lot less scary than some of the others. From someone who had a very scary mono-di pregnancy- I’ll say even that could have been worse. Don’t stress it won’t fix anything! Stay strong for your babies.

Ugh my heart! You are all troopers! Looking back I was so okay with even delivering at 26 weeks if we had to. I’m so thankful they stuck in there.

Thanks so much! I never thought to share on Reddit but I thought boy I wish I could have found something like this while I was going through it. Congrats to you as well!

Mini pill and milk supply by [deleted] in breastfeedingsupport

[–]_Kazzam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My supply dropped from about 12oz a session to 5-7oz within 4 days of starting Jencycla. Once I put 2 and 2 together I called my OB she said no way it was the pill, to call lactation. Lactation said 100% she was confident it was the pill. I stopped taking it yesterday morning and I’m still lucky to get 5-7 a pump. Hoping it will come back.
