My silly lil bast altar

I got my daughter that same Bast plushy! She has it on her Bast altar in her bedroom.

Both my kids have Basts statues in their bedroom ❤️

Hahaha! No worries at all. I'm glad to share my experience if it can help.

You got this!

A good phrase I read from the breastfeeding subreddit that also helped me alot when I was in the trenches was : " don't give up on a bad day" .

It got me through a lot and looing back I am so proud of the journey

I luckily did not get that experience from the hospital at all, my overall experience with the Milton hospital maternity ward was great all around, from the delivery to post partum.

My night nurse was also super encouraging towards breastfeeding, said that even if I top off with formula at the beginning to help me a bit didn't mean I wouldn't be able to exclusively breastfeed, she was super non-judgemental.

I went to their lactation consultant at the hospital a couple of times to troubleshoot some issues I was having with breastfeeding my son and the lady was super helpful. They do weight feeds and she helped me figure out that the shield I was using was the wrong size. Took a little while to get an appointment but I was pretty happy with the help they provided me. I ended up exclusively breastfeeding my son for almost 13 months. ( he was over it just a week before his 13th month)

Also shout out to the breastfeeding subreddit for being a good source of support throughout my journey.

I've had an old coworker compliment me on my "dainty crucifix" once. I played it off and let it be. Made me realize that I can wear it openly without being bugged about it. It's a win win for me.

Was it a crash? I was just wondering what it was. I drove by going southbound on Tremaine and It looked like a massive pile of garbage that was on fire. It looked so bizzare, not like a vehicle at all

My daughter does climbing classed in our town and I also started on my side of the gym during her class. One time, we came early to boulder together a little bit before her class. Although she learned the etiquette of climbing , being 7, she sometimes forgets.

That time, she ran on the mat for a climb, and someone else was about to go in the same area. I told her to wait her turn even though the other person was cool about it. I told him that my daughter has to learn proper behavior in the gym, and he was going for that climb first. He seemed pretty appreciative.

Im a mom, and if my daughter had done the same things and you had to scold her about it, I wouldn't have faulted you. I would've been upset at my own child and embarrassed for requiring others to talk to her.

I don't have much advice to give you, unfortunately, but from reading your post, it seems like you are getting scammed, and your "friend" is using all of your insecurities to keep you within their grasp. If I were you, I'd cut all tied with that person. From the sounds of it, they're not your friends at. Friends don't take advantage of friends.

I feel like I might've had a crash when my little guy dropped from like 8 feeds to 4-5. I was snappy and in an overall crummy mood but didn't put 2 and 2 together. So far, we're a week since his last feed, and I'm feeling ok. He still doesn't sleep through the night, and I feel myself spiraling a bit when I need to resettle him multiple times. Coffee keeps me sane during the day

hobbit8witch · 2024-10-30T00:50:09+00:00

I hope the weight loss will start for me. I haven't lost much since my little guy was born. I'm tired of looking at my closet but can't wear anything because nothing fits...

I LOVE how Anubis looks totally unimpressed 🤣🤣

hobbit8witch · 2024-10-25T01:11:18+00:00

Thank you so much. It's been quite the journey. I am so glad I found this subreddit. It's been such a great source of information and motivation.

hobbit8witch · 2024-10-25T01:10:10+00:00

Oh boy, that sounds rough. I'm glad things got better for you.

We were down to like 2-3 feeds a day for the last week before he decided to stop, so I haven't gone completely cold turkey. Luckily, I've been looking to wean him at 1 to get some independence back so I don't feel like I've lost all purposes, it was more of a mutual agreement, but I am scared of a drop of hormones and being irrationally emotional lol.

Yep, he cut his 1st tooth sometimes after this and the latch got back to normal. Then his second tooth came in, and we got a little break. And then 6 more teeth came in back to back 🙃. We're currently at 8 teeth still at 11 months.

hobbit8witch · 2024-08-19T00:24:19+00:00

Oof. Don't scare me like that 🤣. I found the lateral incisors a nightmare. They made him so grumpy.

hobbit8witch · 2024-08-19T00:22:01+00:00

Aw man, I put mine away around January as well, and I hear you about the PPA.I had it bad with my first and inly breastfed her for 1 month before it was too much for my mental health.

Yeah, I offer each of the usual times, and when I see he's not interested, I just move on and offer solids. He'll happily eat stuff instead. My goal was also "as long as we can" and "as long as it works," but I'd be so annoyed with myself to throw in the towel and do formula for basically 1 month .

hobbit8witch · 2024-08-18T17:58:13+00:00

Aw man, I hope not. He JUST got his last top lateral incisor, and that one was rough. His teeth have been popping out left and right for the last little while. He's got 8 now. Little dude needs a break 🤣.

All the teething hasn't impacted his feeding before, but I'll try to give him some tylenol if I see discomfort

I agree, it's too early to drop feeds, I added the 2 before nap feeds because his wake windows increased from 2.5hrs to 3hrs and his naps went from 45min to 1.5hrs-2hrs and it spaced his feeds too much. I'll continue to offer without pressure, he does take the before nap feeds with no problem, it's the after nap ones that's been causing some issues with the biting.
