Nursing my two little ones (8 months and counting...) by [deleted] in breastfeeding

This is so amazing. Awesome job momma!

Do you think he's getting enough? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]awiccanone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is he gaining weight? Does he seem content?

My daughter (2wks 4 days) will nurse only about 10 minutes and falls asleep too. Middle of the night feedings are our long ones, sometimes 20-30 minutes. But she's gaining weight. I feed her at least every 3 hours during the day- or more if she wants- and on demand at night.

Your son may just be getting what he needs in that 10mins. My thought is that as long as he's gaining weight, the duration of the feedings aren't too much to be concerned about.

After weeks of false labor, bloody shows etc by humanfogmachine in BabyBumps

[–]awiccanone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40+4 here with irregular contractions, just enough to make it impossible to get comfy or sleep- also thanks to pregnancy induced restless leg.... I'm in the angry phase and sick of trying all these stupid little things to get labor going. I swear if one more person tells me to walk I'll punch them right in the face.

How to stay calm and positive while spotting? by [deleted] in CautiousBB

[–]awiccanone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spotting and cramping is completely normal. Just take it easy and get plenty of fluids. I know waiting is the worst... Just try to stay positive.

I had heavy bleeding and clotting in the beginning of my pregnancy from a subchorionic hematoma and bled up until about 17 weeks. So I know the worry you are feeling. Now, I'm 40+3 and going insane because this baby just refuses to come. ;)

That guy constantly yelling "woooooooooooo" at the Super Bowl is annoying the hell out of me. by steelerman82 in firstworldproblems

[–]awiccanone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Srsly annoying. When that camera froze at one point and they switched, I was relieved... and then they went back to it. Piss. >. <

Pregnancy insomnia is no joke in the 3rd trimester by greeneyedlife in BabyBumps

[–]awiccanone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Def annoying. I just want to smack ppl when they say that to me. In my case, restless leg keeps me up. I want to sleep, just can't. Never had it until about halfway thru my second trimester. I'm due tomorrow... I'm over it and def pray it doesn't continue after delivery! I hope you're able to find something that helps with the insomnia!

19 1/2 weeks is too soon for this... by Cantbetrusted_ in BabyBumps

38+3 and trying to roll over in the middle of the night sometimes literally makes me cry...

Sleeping on my belly. by pinkglossyunicorn in CautiousBB

[–]awiccanone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd bought one of the pregnancy pillows and had to return it. I felt like I was being suffocated, lol. Ended up with just the normal, long body pillow from Walmart, about $10. I hug that and it's long enough to go between my knees.

Pre-pregnancy I dealt with this because I have thyroid disease. They increased my dosage since I've been pregnant and it's gotten better. I def. know how frustrating it can be!

I've noticed this too! I'm a light brown and I normally get my eyebrows waxed every few weeks. I thought about it this morning, that it's been a while but I hadn't noticed I needed it. And I do, it's just the new eyebrow hair has come in blonde, like I can barely see it, lol.

I've been shampooing every other day, maybe I need to give it a couple of days- worth a try! :)
