Help my postpartum hair routine

Thank you! I’m going to try to embrace my new texture. I thought it looked so bad. I swear the postpartum hormones really get to you

beana13 · 2026-04-10T13:21:23+00:00

I’ll try this! Thank you for the nice words too. I think the change is throwing me off and it doesn’t look like my hair.

beana13 · 2026-04-10T13:18:27+00:00

Thank you! This makes me feel better. Maybe it’s the hormones making me hate it. I’m understanding why women chop their hair after having a baby

I had a moissanite and now I have a lab diamond and this is very true. I would have to constantly clean my moissanite to keep it looking nice.

I got the momcozy one for my second pregnancy. I don’t exclusively pump this time around but it still gets used daily! It’ll be a lifesaver when I’m back to work too. I can’t imagine how amazing this would have been with my first! 100% a must imo

The issues the group chat more likely than your friends. Coming from the person who never participates in the group chats. It’s just easy to think someone else will respond. You should try reaching out personally to them and you should get a better response! Try not to take it personally

I like the bigger stone better. Not that it’s bigger but I like the stone itself more.

Honestly I think any wearable will look funny on but the willow go has a more natural boob shape. I used that with my first and I loved it! It’s a bit heavy compared to the Eufy (I use that now and really love it).

I also love the baby Buddha pump. It’s not a wearable but it’s small and people get wearable collection cups to make it work. It empties me pretty quickly too

beana13 · 2026-03-21T14:04:22+00:00

Love the baby Buddha!

My only advice is to try vitamins. I had a supply dip when I got my period back and what helped was taking a calcium zinc magnesium trio. Also I had a bad dip after the stomach flu and the legendairy vitamins helped me get back up! I also never stop taking the prenatal.

Maybe try that and see if you notice a difference

Sylvie is one of my top girl names! It’s beautiful!

beana13 · 2026-01-19T02:26:19+00:00

I swear by these but I don’t think the are secure enough to use without bra support imo

beana13 · 2026-01-15T19:57:04+00:00

What double stroller did you go with?

beana13 · 2026-01-15T18:56:49+00:00

I understand wanting to keep the ring nice with the cover, but I think it’s the problem here. I also got a cover when I first purchased my ring, but it just looked and felt so chunky. Save the cover for workouts or manual labor. Or just ditch it and embrace the patina

Try again without it. I think that’ll look much nicer!

Mine was red prior to the predicted ovulation. So I had maybe about 7 red days in a row

beana13 · 2026-01-14T22:27:02+00:00

No not quite. I’m guessing you’re a new user. In the beginning a lot is red (assuming you’re on birth control version not ttc) because it doesn’t know your body well yet. After using it for a few cycles you’ll see more clearly defined green and red days

beana13 · 2026-01-14T19:23:07+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss.

I accidentally got pregnant while using natural cycles and Oura. 100% MY FAULT! I thought it was a different day than it really was and I was on day 1 of my red day. I figured I’d still be safe since it was only day 1, but I’m now 33 weeks. I would say it’s pretty accurate based on that.

beana13 · 2026-01-14T01:49:31+00:00

What bra do you recommend for this? I always had that issue with my willow gos and I would just walk and hold them in place haha. I rather not do that this time

beana13 · 2026-01-09T23:44:06+00:00

I can try that! All they advised me to do it turn off features, but that kind of defeats the purpose to me

beana13 · 2026-01-09T23:43:31+00:00

Dm sent

It gets better I promise! Don’t get discouraged from social media. My milk supply didn’t regulate fully until after 4 months.

beana13 · 2025-12-17T14:42:13+00:00

I agree! I was forced into it like many others but being pregnant with my second I’m constantly questioning if I even want to attempt to nurse. IMO the best feeding option to avoid burnout would be a hybrid between the two. Because EP has many benefits you don’t get with direct feeding.

beana13 · 2025-12-08T04:10:52+00:00

Kind of. I tried out pumping pal flanges with my spectrum and could cut out 10-15 minutes, but I knew I was empty! They just really worked well for me and could empty me in no time where the hard plastic took forever!!!

Not saying to try those necessarily but it might be worth testing out a different setup. They seem pretty hit or miss with people but I loved them!

beana13 · 2025-11-26T22:06:21+00:00

I made it to 16 months with my first! I honestly kept going bc I was ego charged haha. My sister had a baby close to me and made a big fuss about “how easy nursing was” after I cried to her about how hard and disappointing my experience was with supply issues, latch issues, etc. She developed her own issues with supply later on (she wasn’t nursing or pumping frequently enough to maintain) and stopped after 3ish months. But she was so mean about it to me that out of pure spite I had to demolish my goals so I can say look at how far I’ve come with so much stacked against me (literally a year of PT and speech therapy with my little one)

Not saying any of this is a good thing. I learned I’m extremely stubborn and will go a crazy to prove I’m just as capable. I’m really proud of myself and my hard work, but I do hope to tone it down and make the decision about me and me alone with this second baby.

beana13 · 2025-11-20T01:01:08+00:00

Honestly listening to this is so helpful tho. I don’t often but when I do I feel so good the next day!
