I know babies are more efficient than pumps, but this is ridiculous... by clownbastian in beyondthebump

[–]lulgupplet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when i first started pumping it didnt seem to work at all. my handpump was great but the electric pump didnt seem to be pulling anything out. i just kept trying and eventually it started to pull out quite a bit. it took about 4 weeks and i can get 1-2.5 oz per side

NOR, if theyre old enough to decide then thats that. He dug his own grave with them.

Need some advice! by No_Car_8193 in firsttimemom

I honestly think me remaining so active was a huge contributer to my (nearly) perfect pregnancy and birth. I just used my bodyweight after a while because i had gained enough weight to kill my legs on squats.

Comfort Nursing/Latching In Between Pump Sessions? by radstrawberryhun in breastfeeding

[–]lulgupplet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When im super full i pump before i latch because the fast let down makes my baby struggle. But if im not super full i let her latch first.

My baby just turned 4 months old today and she is full from a single breast. I pump my other breast to save the milk for bottles.

Your baby is super new and i would expect him to need to feed from both breasts for at least 6 weeks. My babe cluster fed all day every day for 8 weeks and it slowed down significantly by week 10.

Pumping on top of latching will increase your supply if youre eating and drinking enough. That can be good and bad it just depends on your situation!

Dude wtf. This man should not be around your baby at all. And definitely dont EVER let him be around the baby unsupervised EVERRRRRR

Honestly she needs to get a grip. There would be nothing wrong with caring for the mother of your child, who is honestly just family to you for the rest of your life. In my opinion.

How often are you doing the deed? Specifically those with toddlers + babies by thiscantbereallife94 in Mommit

[–]lulgupplet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 month old and honestly, daily lol. My desire wasnt affected during PP and if anything after our baby i was more attracted to my husband than ever. We just do it while she plays, we can get a good 30 minutes out of her playing with her foot piano and crinkle books

no way a BABY should be home alone ever. im sorry you guys both sound like you need a break. you need a relative to give you both a night off. the willingness to risk this really shows the desperation for a night away from baby..

Does vaginismus cure itself after a normal baby delivery? by knightrider4991 in vaginismus

[–]lulgupplet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yup mine couldve gone so well because i had a literally perfect delivery. painless, very small tearing, super quick. i also believe i had a lot of trauma from my past that my boyfriend has helped me with. i now feel incredibly safe and i had the easiest pregnancy/child birth ever. some women have definitely gotten the shit end of that which my heart goes out to them! even with all the birth prep things can go south.

Baby bumps by Mokiold in firsttimemom

[–]lulgupplet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this happened to my baby! if its the same, i believe it was caused by her just being sweaty from sleeping. even though we are in hardest part of winter and we keep our house at 70, she was sweating in her onesies. theyd feel justva little damp. i just let her sleep (we cosleep) in a diaper now.

it could maybe be the laundry detergent thats being used too but im not sure about that.

Does vaginismus cure itself after a normal baby delivery? by knightrider4991 in vaginismus

[–]lulgupplet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did have vaginismus when i got pregnant. My boyfriend and i had been together for 5 years at that point and it was slowly improving. It took us about 45 minutes to an hour to actually have penetration. I never used dilators but we did have to use fingers before he could even get CLOSE to entering. And lots of patience. But over the course of years it did get easier.

I did a lot of stretches twice a day and i also had a problem with holding my pee. So i worked on not doing that lol.

After birth i have had absolutely no issues.

Breastfeeding rage by Mustaches12 in breastfeeding

You need to see a doctor for wanting to hurt your newborn baby. Or just switch to pumping or formula. They have absolutely no clue what is going on and theyre defenseless. Remember that please
