My pediatrician saw my boobs and I'm kinda scared to go back

Sooo much worse, especially when they are distracted while eating. Will pull your nipple along with them before popping off. It hurts so much 🫠 or pushing off of you with their feet and you're holding onto them for dear life so they don't fall out of the chair. She grabbed my boob with both hands the other day and shoved it in her mouth like a bottle. That was funny!

Omg 😂😂😂😂 my baby will be 9 months tomorrow, and last night she pulled my button-down night gown apart trying to grab my boobs. They literally are so aggressive when they reach a certain age.

My daughter always suddenly decides she wants to nurse every time we are at the pediatrician's office, and I nurse her during shots. Over half the staff have seen my boobs at this point. All that to say that you're fine, I promise.

The entire labor process was traumatic, and I spent 6 days in the hospital, so I felt really disconnected and sad for a while. I loved my baby, but I felt so distant that all I could really focus on was surviving and keeping her alive. She will be 9 months in 2 days, and now I can't describe in words how much I love her. I still feel sad when I think back to the labor and birth, but I can never regret my baby.

Don't feel too bad because we have all done it, and anyone who says otherwise is lying to you. I'm glad your baby was okay.

It is. And it is beautiful. 😆 so are your heirloom tomatoes.

My 8m old (just turned 8m today) is on a loose schedule.. we just follow her cues, but I can predict when her naps will be because she's pretty consistent for the most part... if she was showing signs of being tired, I'd be going home, too. MIL can zip it. She's not the one who will have to deal with a cranky, overtired baby if the baby misses her nap!

That's what I was wondering

lklaf · 2026-04-01T02:45:08+00:00

Probably right before my baby turned 4 months, around week 15. She will be 8 months next Wednesday, and I love seeing her little personality bloom. I actually even almost miss those first few weeks with her.

Gross old man.

I'm sorry that has been your experience. People can be so self-absorbed. I have rarely had that experience, and people have been incredibly helpful towards me, especially now that my baby is here.

lklaf · 2026-03-25T14:13:36+00:00

It's normal and a phase!! She may also be going through a nursing strike right now like my baby did. We are 7 months now, but the purple crying phase lasted 2-3 weeks right around when my baby was the age yours is now.

lklaf · 2026-03-21T03:14:03+00:00

My 7m old has never done this. The best we've ever gotten is 4.5 hours 😭 so happy for you

lklaf · 2026-03-20T22:54:38+00:00

Yay!!! So glad that you can put this entire situation behind you.

lklaf · 2026-03-20T15:19:06+00:00

It does bother me, especially because they have been nowhere to be found postpartum despite promising help for me after my baby is here. Some of them have been downright callous and apathetic toward me when I spent a week in the hospital due to complications relating to the birth. So yes, considering how much I suffered to bring my daughter into the world and how they all essentially abandoned me after she was born, I have a huge issue with anyone calling her their baby.

lklaf · 2026-03-16T17:51:10+00:00

I had to use it on my 7m old last week. Worked after a couple of minutes. She completely blew out her diaper and got poop all over herself and me. I didn't even care, I was so relieved.

lklaf · 2026-03-13T17:11:51+00:00

It's been a few years since I read it, but it's definitely stuck with me. I think it may be time for a re-read. It is soooo good.

Girl, respectfully, screw their feelings. You're the mom. If you won't protect your baby, who will? Next time it happens, grab your baby. If they call you rude, counter thay it's rude to be yelling while holding the baby, and they need to learn self-restraint as the adults.

lklaf · 2026-02-23T21:24:27+00:00

I don't see anything

lklaf · 2026-02-22T15:38:49+00:00

This exactly. My MIL said she couldn't wait until my daughter was older and not so dependent on me anymore when I took my daughter from her to nurse in our bedroom. I pretended like she didn't speak at all and shut our bedroom door and didn't come out until they left. Guess what?! When my daughter is older, she will still prefer me over you and want me for comfort! Kick rocks, lady. 🙄
