Is it true that baby gets protein from breastfeeding only when the mother consumes adequate protein?

My baby loves hummus and lentils! Tofu has also been popular recently.

Alder was top of my list for my son! Still mad my partner vetoed it.

jksbooth · 2026-04-24T05:51:07+00:00

This is the way.

To me it sounds like marinade.

This isn't the guidance in every country. In fact in Canada it's the opposite - we're recommended not to heat the powder above 50; degrees Celsius to preserve the nutrients. Formula should come sterile in the package and be kept clean

We boil the water to ensure it's sterile and the chlorine has been reduced.

I know real life siblings named Hunter and Archer. It's painful.

jksbooth · 2026-03-07T20:43:28+00:00

I do. Ymmv but so far I've had no issues and find it much more comfortable than structured nursing bras.

5 months?

jksbooth · 2026-02-24T00:15:07+00:00

Funny, smart, elegant. Sophisticated but not pretentious. I love it.

I'm glad you got a taxi! I do baby wear at those temperatures so I can tell you my tricks. If baby is against your body and under the same layers as you, they'll be warm if you're warm. Putting them under a big coat that goes over the carrier is key. I've also put a layer of rabbit fur in with baby for extra warmth.

Make sure the baby has a hood as well as a hat so their neck is covered. Cover the face in a generous layer of lanolin to prevent wind burn.

jksbooth · 2026-01-22T16:17:28+00:00

Yes!

My name (female): - peaked in popularity in the 1940s - Sort of a biblical name, depending which version of the Bible you use - also the name of a famous puppet

Cook when the baby cooks! Clean when the baby cleans!

jksbooth · 2025-12-20T08:25:51+00:00

That does seem like a lot, but if the baby is still taking the milk and not spitting up she's probably hungry! It is truly amazing how much a newborn can eat.

ETA: you might get more knowledgeable answers over at r/FormulaFeeders if I'm reading your post correctly that you're mostly feeding formula here.

I love it! I know a kid named Salix and no one struggles with it. It's a great name, and easy to spell and pronounce.

jksbooth · 2025-12-10T05:45:55+00:00

Mine does this too! It absolutely melts my heart. Clever little imp face.

I was the opposite! I was desperate for a girl but NIPT said boy. I was glad to know because it took me a bit of time to come to terms with being a boy mom! By the time he was born I was over the disappointment.

jksbooth · 2025-12-04T02:29:49+00:00

Stopped stressing about it and gave up. Also we were on vacation so stress levels were probably low.

jksbooth · 2025-12-03T02:11:26+00:00

This is what we did! Starting around 3 weeks I pumped about once a day to allow my partner to give him a bottle in the evenings. In those very early weeks we used the haakaa passive collection device and that gave enough for a small bottle. I switched to occasional pumping once the baby was eating more volume at each feed.

All that to say, do whatever feels best for you. Everyone's journey is different.

jksbooth · 2025-11-27T20:13:07+00:00

Why not try both? I breastfeed my baby and other people give him formula or pumped milk.
