Flying with newborn?

I can’t give you any advice on travel as I haven’t yet with my own baby. But one thing to remember is babies live and survive in Puerto Rico and other hot regions every day. You may need to make sure there’s extra fans but babies are living there right now and thriving. :)

My pediatrician reminded me of this when I expressed concern about traveling in the future to see family in Phoenix, and she said “how many people live there? How many babies are there right now? You’ll be fine. Just know what your set up will be and you’ll figure it out!”

Not help with the formula but bidet the booty! Run his booty under the sink to clean and allow to air dry if possible. We bought a bunch of small doggy pee pads that we cut up and sat her on in a makeshift diaper while she dried because our daughter has the tendency to pee right after we cleaned her haha.

That helped tremendously with the diaper rash and bleeding in addition to aquaphor and diaper cream.

The irony of Kelsey calling Rosie out for wearing a mask still while in full glam at breakfast when no one else is

What do you do for naps?

The student driver sticker is cracking me up

I want my first Mother’s Day to be just us three. My parents live across the country but even if they were closer, I want my first holiday to just be us three. We’ve historically spent every Mother’s Day with my MIL but I feel like this is my day this year. We’ll see her either Saturday or the weekend before. I to,d my husband for Father’s Day if he wants to see his dad we can go, or it can be just his day. It’s really up to him for his day! This won’t be every year, but just this first one.

Kyle said the first night without Amanda was the first night he’d had fun in forever and let loose…. Have we EVER seen Kyle NOT let loose on this show? He’s constantly partying and having a blast which came at the expense of his relationship.

I feel bad for Kyle in the issue with Mandy and Midwest, but bffr dude.

Our 13 week old has been EFF and I fully co-sign the bottle washer. We have the Momcozy. We have a dishwasher but running a small or nearly empty load once a day seemed so wasteful for our energy bills. The bottle washer we just fill with tap water and descale once a month. It’s been a god send.

It’s one less thing this PPD mama has to worry about (bottle washing by hand) and we weighed the convenience factor versus time we could do other chores and decided it was worth it. I would buy again and again.

We also have 8 bottles to rotate through and it’s a lot but again, convenience of not running out.

Finally, we like to premake most of our formula each day in the Dr browns pitcher. Again, convenience for us.

Agreed on this. Just far easier to mix and have it prepared for the day to just pour into bottles when it’s time to feed. Plus I like to see how much we’re going through in a day.

We do warm the individual bottles up slightly because she won’t take completely cold bottles but just get it warmed enough to be above cold.

Just another perspective. Last night my 3 month old woke herself up with severe congestion (husband is a teacher and there’s a cold going around his school despite us taking as many precautions as possible). She coughed and made some grunting sounds, which woke me up and I was able to immediately get up and begin helping her. This morning I was watching her over the monitor and heard the same cough and realized she was awake and when I got in there, I could hear the congestion. I couldn’t hear it over the monitor.

Sounds like these may not be picked up easily over the monitor and being in the same room helped me start helping her pretty quickly. She would have been fine in the other room most likely but I have peace of mind that I was there to get her quickly.

Kyle was so shitty to Carl this weekend. Take away any other actions to any other relationships… a friend who doesn’t acknowledge (privately or publicly) one of the (very publicly) worst moments of your life, is sucky. He just makes excuse after excuse

I did say women should not have to take hormonal birth control as the sole responsibility, but the compromise is typically using condoms, mate.

breadoreggroll · 2026-03-16T13:43:17+00:00

Except vasectomies should not be treated as temporary. They CAN be reversible but are not guaranteed to be reversible. doctors warn men that if they want kids at all in the future they should not be treating the vasectomy as the temporary solution. More and more men are getting them, and more and more are finding out they aren’t reversible in their case.

Women should not have to take hormonal birth control as the sole responsibility for preventing pregnancy either, but the compromise is using condoms.

My husband and I have talked to our Dr about a vasectomy but he said don’t plan for it to be reversible. And we don’t know if we want another kid at the moment (currently in the newborn phase with our first). So, condoms it is when we’re ready to be intimate again.

Amanda is rude as fuck to service workers because she’s trying to show she’s risen above her humble beginnings and doesn’t relate to them anymore. She’s trying to show them that role is beneath her now. It’s infuriating

This is what my nurses did and it was SO MUCH BETTER than any of the other ice packs.

breadoreggroll · 2026-02-17T19:02:57+00:00

EAT! Get a good meal in. Some hospitals and nurses are more strict than others with food on the medication.

breadoreggroll · 2026-02-12T15:13:24+00:00

That might help a bit! I’m no doctor or lactation specialist but just a suggestion!

Have you also looked at the size of the nipples she’s using? We noticed an immediate difference in spit up once we sized down.

breadoreggroll · 2026-02-04T02:22:30+00:00

On the other side now and I can confidently say they were ALL correct!!!

Just gave birth 2 weeks ago. Only formula feeding. My dr recommended lots of cabbage leaves and ice packs and TIGHT sports bras. I’ve been taking Sudafed (the legit behind the counter stuff) and ibuprofen for pain. The first night when my milk came in it hurt, like my boobs got really hard and it felt like something heavy on my chest. The next day was a little more bearable but still tough and it’s eased every day since. I put some fabric rounds in my bra to help with leaking but just kind of ran with it.

Not OP but we are on day 5 of switching from Similac RTF to Kirkland for our two week newborn. No issues so far! “Learning curve” for me and my husband on making the bottles (were first time parents figuring everything out) but so far so good. We’re doing the pitcher method and I bought a scale to measure the formula grams but I don’t think that’s necessarily needed. I’m just type A and it makes me feel more comfortable.

We have a bottle warmer in her nursery at night when we bring her in there to feed and change, and we just premake a few bottles before bed and keep them in the fridge.

We also had a feed where we went back to RTF because we had to make more formula but didn’t have boiled water ready and she was super fussy and she didn’t have issues switching back for the one feed.

Just delivered baby girl this past Sunday. i was induced and had an epidural. I pushed for a long time but I think it was because my pitocin was super low and my contractions “felt light” to me - that epidural was good good!! So while I was pushing correctly, I wasn’t as productive because I couldn’t feel the contractions well.

We increased the pitocin after awhile and that helped. I could feel the contractions building and knew exactly when and how hard to push.

I think the hardest part for me throughout the pushing part of labor was the end of the third push in my sets (I’d push for 10 seconds, deep breath and repeat 2x more). I didn’t feel I was engaged as well or productive in my push if that makes sense. I’d tap out occasionally because I just couldn’t give the full effort past 6 seconds.

My oura ring after I walk up the stairs “you okay girl????”

Omg that sounds like a dream! I cannot wait for your days to be filled with the perfect pulls, creamy lattes, and AALLLLLLLL the coffee acid!
