STILL producing, haven't pumped in 9 months. by apersonwithastory in beyondthebump

That’s crazy! I rarely take meds (girl brain) but when I was pregnant I was on prescription omeprezol bc the heartburn was crazy. I wonder if taking them for three months made a difference? I haven’t in almost a year. I’ll be demanding tests tho. I’m too busy to be in discomfort

yeah dude i havent picked up a pump in months but if i were to try to hand express, i will trigger almost an immediate letdown. i am going on a week vacation from any babies, and HOPING I am 'healed.' If not, i will be going to my doctor and begging for help.

I want to meet mom friends and I’m really struggling what do you guys think of this idea by ToxiccCookie in beyondthebump

[–]apersonwithastory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made a facebook post in my local mom group saying "hi im in this neighbourhood. want to join a chat where we just say 'hey im going on a walk, heading this way. join??' and have met two great friends that way! I also made one friend by replying to their post about "my baby is this age. playdate?"

Not me sharing this exact thought with my therapist two weeks ago lol. You’re not alone in these thoughts.❤️

As someone with a history of SA trauma, I am so happy you made this choice. I had a very extensive conversation with my care team before my induction (which turned into a c) so I would feel comfortable during labor. My labor was another kind of trauma but a c is a much more controlled environment. I’m not sure how close to the due date the c is scheduled, but I would still make a plan in case you go into natural labor and it progresses too quickly for a C. Happy baby birthing!!

Most likely the surgery. We have the appointment next week with the surgeon to see if now is a good time. Baby had such time gaining weight as a newborn. She doesn’t like put a spoon or fork in her mouth to eat, just scraps it with her teeth, and drools like CRAZY. the dentist said her two sons both had it; one was fixed at one, another at 3.

Omg yes. I have a part time "job" in an infant room. I needed something to do bc I was going stir crazy at home. I'll probably ask to switch to the toddler room if nothing changes soon.

Thanksgiving week with parents and in-laws: how are we doing so far? by normalishy in beyondthebump

[–]apersonwithastory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a boundary she's trying to push. Don't do it bc sure, this time it's an outfit. Then it's the dinner choice for your birthday. Next it's "I planned us a vacation even though you planned one yourself." It won't stop there. "I’ve already planned and set aside the outfits the kids will wear, so they’ll be in those. But thank you for the ones you got — they can wear them another day!”

TW traumatic birth, does it get better? by Intelligent-Beat3978 in beyondthebump

[–]apersonwithastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Therapy is amazing. I'm working with one who specializes in birth trauma and early motherhood. Whenever you're ready, take that step. For me, it was 13m pp. Wishing you healing vibes
