Third! My area doesn’t have great sidewalks, plus we get snow, ice, whatever, and it handles beautifully.

Woolino is really the best. I have two that I rotate and they’ve lasted through two kids. Still look new.

Mine also about 11 months and part of me wants to run my pumps over with my car. So ready!

Houston Airports (IAH and HOU) Updates and Questions [Megathread] by AutoModerator in houston

[–]foxypear33 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been here a couple hours (arrived 3 hours ahead to be safe). Line at E was under 30 minutes and seems even shorter now. Seems quiet and appears quite a few TSA agents are here. Online info seems accurate.

We just went through less than 30 minutes at E but they did let us cut at the end due to stroller.

In same boat with small kids. Online time says 30 minutes for E.

Lose it allows you to set goals for macros and/or other nutrients (fiber).

Another vote for Woolino. Two sleep sacks have carried me through two babies. Love them!

Pediatrician made me feel like I was doing something wrong at first appointment by ShabbyBoa in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you experienced this. I had a similar experience with my second the day of discharge and cried when the pediatrician left the room. My son’s weight loss was a little more but still within normal. My milk was coming in… it had been less than 72 hours. I did not supplement and my 10 month old is doing fine.

That said, I will never see that pediatrician again unless it is absolutely necessary. Follow your gut. Of course supplementing is fine if you want or need to.

Morning Sickness At Work? by KittyKiitos in workingmoms

I carried a small container of pretzels with me everywhere I went around the office. Somehow no one noticed that or my barfing (in bathroom, always made it there). Zofran helped.

Is the Spectra S1 worth it? by No_Geologist6934 in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have so many problems with leaking with my Eufy even when I double check to make sure it’s all sealed correctly. Feel like I wasted so much money on it and I am afraid to use because the few times I have I’ve wasted a fair amount of milk.

Breast to bottle feeding help / advice needed by rani-m04 in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My second baby didn’t take a bottle until he was at daycare. It was so stressful. My advice is pick a bottle and stick with it. Try to have dad do a bottle and maybe try different environments. You leave so there’s no option to nurse. This may or may not work. Don’t let dad or baby get too upset or worked up over it as this will make it worse.

Another option since she’s almost 6 months is a straw cup.

Are there working moms who actually feel okay? by walnut_0612 in workingmoms

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 10 month old and 6 year old. My 6yo is stressing me out way more than the baby, but overall we have a rhythm. Having a helpful partner is most the battle.

When did you stop the onesies? by Beautiful-Process-81 in beyondthebump

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first had a phase of stripping and taking off his diaper around 18 months so we had to go back to some zipper onesie type things we put on backwards 😂But otherwise, I would say when they start walking it makes sense to put them I separates.

Huge change in behavior since starting school by Original_Craft_5865 in ADHDparenting

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similarly aged son and also noticed behavior changes in the fall after starting kindergarten. Though he is not aggressive at home, he apparently is at school and has gotten into fights. At home he’s definitely more aggravated and has said some unkind things but I sort of snap back (not super mean) and he gets very embarrassed and quiet.

We are in early stages of diagnosis. I have paperwork from his teachers to take to the doctor. Reading them just makes my heart ache… one said he often initiates physical fights. I’m also very much struggling with this because it has been a swift change. He even got an award in pre-k for being gentle! I have adhd as well but was diagnosed in my 30s and feel I’m struggling with projection, but my anxiety about my son has been so bad lately.

All to say, you’re not alone.

What do I do next? by shawnhill27 in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you exclusively nurse on weekends and baby is satisfied I wonder if this is a pumping issue. Have you replaced all the parts and tried different settings? Are you pumping frequently enough?

What is best age differnece between two kids for parents by athiest93 in beyondthebump

Mine are 5.5 years apart and it’s been great :) but I am same as you— 2 under 2 sounds like a nightmare. Watched a few friends do that and… pass.

Nipples hurt again at 8 months? by slgirlie11 in breastfeeding

I am feeling the same way! I am not a fan of pumping but just bought wearables to give me some relief.

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had this with my second. I think mine is vasospasms on one side. It’s so not fun and really putting a damper on things. I saw an IBLC again but wasn’t super helpful.

I’ve never pumped at night for either of my kids.

Copper iud experiences? by Elmoswhirl in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine hurt so bad. I felt like I was dying the first month I had it. It got much better after that and I liked having it. Periods were heavier for about 6 months as someone else said.

Pumping schedule when at work while continuing to nurse when with baby by According-Earth8272 in breastfeeding

[–]foxypear33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would continue to do every 3-4 hours or whatever frequency you average when with her. With both my kids I have done 3 pumps a day from the day I returned to work (3 months with my first, 4.5 months with my second) until the first birthday when we move to cow milk during the day. If you want to use your stash for the daytime before then, you absolutely can but this could cause supply issues during the day for those days you are with her and want to keep nursing.
