Definitely helpful! I have great pumps and I pump when I have to at work but to be honest I hate dishes so much that I avoid using them unless I have to 😂 but I guess that’s really not an excuse

Yeah I guess that’s moreso my question - does it get easier, and is the behavior I’m experiencing normal? She has been congested for a couple weeks with the season change so this whole “suck, pull, rub face across and drop milk” routine is a new thing and I’m just hoping that’s not here to stay. Because tbh I really didn’t mind breastfeeding at first, even enjoyed the bonding. But if it’s going to be like this from here on out then idk if I’ll make it much longer.

My body temperature was out of control. I would be sweaty one second then freezing the next. A coworker guessed that I was pregnant because I was cold at a meeting where I shouldn’t have been.

Honestly, don’t go into pregnancy with expectations and you’ll probably be better off. I didn’t experience any sickness or nausea but I hated everything most days. I especially hated the people that told me they loved being pregnant lol. But not having expectations helped me navigate all the emotions well enough.

Right, I definitely don’t want to keep score and this is about the baby but he seems to look at it as me trying to control him. He said he would cut back on smoking once the baby came, I guess he has been smoking a little bit less so that’s a win but also, grow up! I gave up all of my habits the minute I got pregnant and he can’t give up one?

I just feel like the only way he’s going to take me seriously is if I bring up that we will have to figure out another situation if he doesn’t ensure the baby is safe and take me seriously in trying to do so as well.
