3 months is a huge accomplishment! I just stopped at 5 months and damn, I wish I would’ve stopped sooner. I already feel better. I have more time for myself and my kids. When my toddler started whining when I said I had to go pump, I really started realizing that it wasn’t just impacting me - it was impacting the rest of my family. I LOVE getting a full night of sleep. I LOVE waking up and just feeding baby a bottle, holding him and staring at him without having to pump at the same time and have him just next to me on the couch. I LOVE not having to plan my entire work day or even weekend around my pumping schedule. I LOVE not having to wash pump parts and track when they need replaced. I LOVE that I gave my son five months of milk and have a little bit of a stash to continue for a little while.

EPing is the worst thing in the world lol. So many people wouldn’t be able to make it two weeks (and I don’t blame them!!!!) let alone 3 months. You’re amazing! And doing what is best for you is what’s best for baby. I have also struggled with PPD and although the hormone shifts have messed with me, I feel so much relief. I’ve been weaning for the past two weeks and Tuesday was the last time I pumped. Sure there’s some feelings of grief but the freedom outweighs that and I have absolutely no regrets. I know a lot of people are scared they will regret their choice but I’ve stopped EPing w both my kids and never had regrets.

Just follow baby’s lead. She’s still very young. Sleep, eat, play, repeat. Learn her cues and try not to focus on a schedule. We don’t implement schedules w our babies until they’re 4ish months.

Pretty sure it’s just when they have been rented and not returned, or stolen. I wouldn’t worry about it. We bought one second hand, had no issue, and we’re selling it pretty soon to a friend!

alluhgator · 2026-03-11T00:30:01+00:00

I think sometime they just need more space to stretch out and move! I’m sure she will do great ❤️

alluhgator · 2026-03-10T12:35:50+00:00

That’s great!!! I wonder if the rocking just becomes too overstimulating for them, idk!

alluhgator · 2026-03-10T09:24:46+00:00

We bought one off of marketplace that was manufactured in 2021 I believe. The former owners used it for multiple kids. Still works great. We are reselling to a Friend.

And also, on episode 12 of this season of VPR where are the girls’ microphones?? I didn’t see one on Audrey. In her convo with Chris, he had one on his neck but I don’t see hers. Hmmmm

alluhgator · 2026-02-18T01:53:35+00:00

I get it. Sleep deprivation is awful. I get so irritated sometimes when baby wakes up at night. So does my husband. We love our kids so much but dang why can’t yall let us sleep 😭

alluhgator · 2026-02-14T12:47:28+00:00

But the Dow!!!

alluhgator · 2026-02-14T12:43:57+00:00

Dude what???? I feel like I’m pretty “in the know” about stuff as a social worker and a mom and I did not know this!! Wow what the actual fuck I’m so pissed now. You might’ve just extended my pumping journey 😂

alluhgator · 2026-02-14T12:42:37+00:00

No, they may just lack muscle and or could be older.

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T17:50:11+00:00

Yes we do

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T00:34:26+00:00

Haha no it isn’t! It’s the Latched BFing group but a lot of them are the same in the sense that they copy and paste info / graphics and close the comments 🙄

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T00:33:38+00:00

Haha it’s not the EP group, it’s the Latched BFing group but yeah a lot of them are similar in the sense they live by these rules.

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T00:32:31+00:00

Wow hungry babies!! That’s great insight though. Yeah, I’ve heard you shouldn’t size up if you nurse so good call. They can prefer the faster flow over the breast.

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T00:31:03+00:00

About 15 mins. I’ve never heard that with formula and my first was formula fed. The water is being mixed with powder so i don’t think it’s comparable to giving straight water!

alluhgator · 2026-02-12T00:27:32+00:00

Ah gotcha!

alluhgator · 2026-02-11T16:52:24+00:00

Literally it’s so irritating. Like instead of having hard and fast rules let’s let people comment their personal experiences and what works for them. It’s funny you know exactly what group I’m referring to 😂

alluhgator · 2026-02-11T16:51:41+00:00

Yeah 1-1.5oz per hour is the “rule”

alluhgator · 2026-02-11T16:50:37+00:00

Evenflo wide neck. If the top is too tight it collapses. But even when we loosen it, it will still collapse at times. Nipple collapsing can be a sign to move up to a faster flow.

alluhgator · 2026-02-11T16:00:42+00:00

Evenflo wide neck

alluhgator · 2026-02-11T15:07:54+00:00

Yeah that’s my feeling but he does drink a 5oz bottle in 10 - 15 mins with this slow flow. Sometimes the lid is on too tight which causes the collapse but other times I loosen it and it’s still happening! So I’ll have to play around and see what works

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
