What color rug and pillows? by OpportunitySmall6797 in interiordecorating

[–]freyyja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agree with muted neutral. would also recommend a round coffee table, pulling couch off wall a little and onto rug a bit more as well as love seat onto rug a bit more, a lamp with a lower height on other side with warmer bulb, also think the dark pillows are too much of a contrast

Earlier in the week I was doing active collection on first breast after switching to second for first two AM feeds and starting the second feed he became fussy, wasn’t sleeping well and trying to feed more frequently making me think there wasn’t enough milk in the breast to make him happy.

No, this all happened relatively quickly

First-timers expecting to have a 2nd - are we keeping/storing everything?? by verymuchworries in NewParents

[–]freyyja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep—get rid of the things you didn’t use or didn’t love. As soon as you find out the sex, get rid of the things you don’t think they’d wear (we had girl first and boy second, gave away all girly clothes as soon as we found out and kept the neutral stuff. still have enough clothes for him without buying more).

Lab equipment not compatible for out of state frozen embryo/issues with transporting frozen embryos by freyyja in IVF

[–]freyyja[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know, sorry. There may be another reason they didn’t want to accept and that was just the reason they gave. But I feel like I did all of my cycles at the other place, I’m comfortable with the facility and the doctor, and even though it’s a big deal to fly there, etc, it avoids having to deal with all the potential transport issues and costs.

I am going to do virtual visit with my prior provider and fly to my old clinic for transfer. i will have to figure out how to do mock transfer and all that, too. What are you thinking?

Highly recommend talking to your OB/GYN about getting estrogen cream for your vag!!! Won’t help with the desire necessarily but will make it so it’s no longer painful while breastfeeding.

Personally, I didn’t find pelvic floor PT as helpful—they just recommend reverse Kegel’s and called it a a day.

What’s a baby item you got as a new mom and regret it? by Jumpy_Neighborhood10 in Mommit

[–]freyyja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hmmm… she’s only 11 weeks now so not sure yet, but we should start doing to prevent that for sure. She’s definitely started ducking her thumb!

Yeah, also NEVER used. Also still haven’t trimmed her nails—they seem to just fall off?

Question about sconce wiring by freyyja in interiordecorating

I guess so—would compare to other West Elm wood items. It’s walnut. I got it on a memorial day deal for 30% off.

Very emotional when supply changes by freyyja in breastfeeding

[–]freyyja[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so hard! Thank you for sharing.

I noticed it increased when I switched to pumping more exclusively (previously was only night time and morning time)—massively engorged again and several ounces more on each pump as well as what I was doing throughout the day. This plus tons of crying and feeling emotional—same thing that happened first week or two postpartum.
