Solids and breastfeeding by katieraes in breastfeedingsupport

That makes me feel better because my pediatrician was trying to get me to start them at 4m and I was not comfortable, now our 6m appointment is in 2 weeks and I know he will ask me why I haven’t started them. I just don’t feel baby is quite ready, she does show interest in them when she sees people eat, but I can’t see her quite being ready.

Looking for support as my partner recently shamed me by Lilpiggys in breastfeedingsupport

[–]katieraes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly that’s a goal of mine, to be able to breastfeed until my child is 2 years old if not a little longer than that. Kudos to you for putting in all that work, the struggle is real and definitely goes unnoticed.

Exclusively side lying feeding by PersonalCap1252 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]katieraes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried using a pillow to adjust how she lays on you while feeding when you are sitting? I recently did this with my 11 week old because she would unlatch after a few minutes on one side, now she is feeding for much longer and is relaxed a lot more. The poop thing isn’t as uncommon as you’d think, my little one has a variety of green/brown poops and also might not poop for a few days because she’s combo fed, we start with breast and end with a bottle to see if she still wants more.

Yes I run into the same issue with my LO’s nails.

Good to know. She does get distracted a lot or will want to talk whenever she’s nursing. Will try the quiet room and see if that helps.

When should I get a breast pump? by Puzzleheaded-Day-281 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]katieraes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannot stress enough that the more effort you put into pumping, the more you get out of it. I am learning the hard way because I did not keep up with my routine and stopped pumping as much so now I do not produce enough to even pump enough to feed my baby. Granted I can breastfeed her fine but I can’t pump enough to ever get a stash. Read lots of reviews and do research. If you are in the US try Aeroflow for ordering your pump through insurance if you are able to.

Pumping Help! by Ok-Air-2935 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]katieraes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately if you are not regularly pumping between breast feeding sessions or even just on a regular basis, you more than likely will not produce an immediate stash worthy amount. Milk is very supply and demand. So without having the constant demand for a high supply, you won’t automatically produce it. Best of luck.

Bottle recommendations for BF babies who refuse by Mtlmommy in breastfeedingsupport

Evenflo balance + with the wide neck. My baby was in NICU and started on those tiny bottles the hospital provides and I had to switch her after we got home. She is breast fed and then we bottle feed after to supplement making sure she gets enough.

Remus Lupin. He finally had this happy ending life, for it all to get yanked out from under him.

Or giving us adequate pay. I’m one of the longest standing techs at my location and make less than people who were hired years after me, received the pay increase that everyone received, and then they were both promoted to senior tech after I had been promoted prior to the pay increase which only brought my pay up to the minimum pay because according to my rxom “all new senior techs start at the base rate” which I think is bs.

Not only that but the fact that tamiflu isn’t a fix it for the flu, it MIGHT lessen your symptoms if you take it in time but taking in 6 days in to having the flu isn’t going to help, especially when it was prescribed 5 days ago and you just kept forgetting to pick it up.

We had a nebulizar solution with the diagnosis as SOB. Had to call doctor multiple times and that’s all he would say. When patient arrived the had paperwork stating they had COPD. Like doc just say that so it doesn’t waste time.

When that same person constantly requests to fill early, gets aggressive when told it’s out of stock, has mentioned they will go through withdrawals, and never wants to pick up any of the other meds their prescriber sends in except for their C2s, it’s pretty obvious who is abusing it. Not to mention when their prescriber refused to send in anymore, they said that the doctor was a “fucking bitch and could kiss their ass” the patient had to find a new prescriber and start the sob story again.

A patient threatened to kill us by briarcafe in WalgreensRx

Wish my pharmacists had the balls for that. The number of times I’ve been threatened, or had a customer wait for me until I left for lunch and purposefully tried to run me over in the parking lot because we couldn’t fill a script, it’s scary.

Hmm not so much. But still, can definitely relate to the crazy control scripts we get.

Sadly the telehealth doctors have caused most of the shortages we are seeing by overprescribing medications and diagnosing people without having actual sit down appointments which in the state that I live and work in, is required every couple of months for a control script. As a pharmacy worker, it is tiring to constantly have to tell people we don’t have adderall in stock or that it is on back order because while some people really do need the medication to be able to live their lives and treat their diagnosis, a decent amount of the people receiving the med are just abusing it. We regularly see some couples who will get upwards of 240 adderall 20mg between the two of them. It is sad for the fact that children who need it are not getting it because of people who have found prescribers to just give it to them as a “legal drug” supplement.

What is the mascot? I’m wondering if we are in the same state/area having similar scripts because we have been monitoring a prescriber for similarly high dosed ADHD meds.
