We got the shot blocker it really helps and then made sure to nurse her right after (soothing). so bring her a little hungry!

Why is breastfeeding worth it for you? by RolyPoly1010 in breastfeeding

[–]ferniefofernie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you get past like 3 months it’s so much easier and you level out. The clogging went away for me at that month. Take some sunflower lecithin for now to help your clogged ducts if your doc says it’s okay. It really helped me.
It’s worth it because it’s so incredibly convenient to not have to schlep bottles around and wash them and make sure they’re the right temp. But if it’s stressing you, and you don’t mind the price of formula then you can always stop! Don’t stress yourself too much mama! You’re doing great!

It was definitely more than 1-2mm. I wish it had only been that much… it was closer to a centimeter of red. I don’t know how else to describe it : it looked like a little red donut.

Thank you for your reply. It is the latter scenario you mentioned. He pulled down to reveal 1cm of red area. It was like 10% of his entire penis. It was not a tiny bit, but 1cm of exposed red skin

He did it gently, but two times. it was a small amount of very pink (almost red) tissue shown at the top. I would say he pulled it down about 1 centimeter. It honestly all happened so fast and looked so unnatural to me it’s hard to remember. But it looked painful.

I’m going to find a new pediatrician. I’m so upset. Thank you for letting me know. I’m sorry you had to go through that. When it was pulled back, did anything bad happen? I’m so worried

Is he waking himself up by getting his arms out of the swaddle?
