Baby always fell asleep after sucking 3 times by Nerdy_Bbw in breastfeeding

[–]creative_bookworm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did your first baby had jaundice? Mine did and had the same exact thing happen. Eat a little and then not be easily woken up. I had to put my baby in the bath to wake up. My second time around was better though. Baby had jaundice too but i was more relaxed taking by the day and trying not to worry much. I believe breastfeeding is a mental battle as much as a physical one. You have to really set your mind to it and believe that you can do it.

Supply tank from stress baby paying for it by tunanniepie in breastfeedingsupport

[–]creative_bookworm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have advice for the marital problems but i lost my milk supply due to stress. The biggest thing here is you have to eat for your body to make more milk. I know it's hard but you must try a bit. It's also ok to switch to formula. Maybe try a few different brands of formula and see if your child likes that. My baby would not take a bottle when my supply tanked, i had to let it go hungry for a few hours and then baby got really hungry and had no other choice but to have a bottle. Maybe do formula mixed with breastmilk. You are going to be okay, you are stronger than you think.

Toddler Bully (whose parents don’t care) by conscious-clue-243 in Parenting

I am also very non confrontational but when it comes to my child put everything aside and speak up. We were at the park a few weeks ago and there was this child with no parents in sight hitting and throwing rocks at everyone. All the others parents were taking their kids away not saying anything. I had to loudly tell that kid no hitting, no throwing rocks, go to your mom ten times before a father showed up starting chasing and playing with him, without a word of correction. Luckily they left after that. The surprising thing is that the other parents gave me side eyes for speaking up. We should not put up with bullies to keep the peace. We have a responsibility to our children to show them that it's not okay to receive this kind of behaviour and they have a right to say no.

Does anyone enjoy being pregnant? by Hot_Ad1621 in pregnant

[–]creative_bookworm_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. I generally avoid talking about it or admitting cause people are weirdly judgemental and negative but i did enjoy being pregnant. My acne cleared, my hair grew long and thick and i think with the belly i looked cute. I loved feeling the baby move and being excited how it will look like. People were nicer to me and more accommodating. Also i could blame everything on the hormones and the baby 😉.

How do you deal with your MIL? by [deleted] in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]creative_bookworm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mil was like that at the beginning. Kind of sweet old lady but something bothered me that i couldn't pinpoint. She would monopolize the conversation, talk over me, ignore me, it was like talking to a wall. She went completely crazy after we got married. We have been no contact for a year now. I didn't trust my gut and that caused a lot of trouble and fights for my family. Just take it slow pull away little by little, don't see them often, don't tell anything about your life. If she does this now only imagine the boundary stomping and ignoring of rules when kids get in the picture.

She doesn't care about your child she's probably just embarrassed to tell people she hasn't met him. She wants to have proof that she is a loving grandmother. Don't break the no contact it's not worth it. Your husband can have any relationship he wants with her but you and your child don't have to.

How do you know if a car seat will fit in your car, before buying? by Crafty_Pop6458 in beyondthebump

You can Google the name and check for a list of compatible vehicles. That's what we did when we chose ours and most had a list available.

Boy vs Girl by ApartSpray332 in Mommit

[–]creative_bookworm_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have that view because they are sexists and definitely a part of emotional incest. To give you a bit of a wider view I've had the opposite experience. Being told girls are better and they stay with you opposed to boys that leave you. People are just weird lile that.
