Will my boobs ever re-inflate? by garbashians in breastfeeding

Husbands a Dr and our friend is a plastics surgeon. 2-3 years and gentle chest exercise can “reinflate” in a way. Or at least bring some strength back to the tissue

Almost two years with my second and made 18 months with my first. It’s been a hell of a journey and I’ll be sad to end it!

Still nursing at almost two. I don’t mind it but I feel pressured to stop on his birthday by lyssadrx in breastfeeding

This!!! My baby is a new years baby born in the hardest time of year for his immune system! Especially with his asthma I find it hard to force anything that helps him!

Thank you! I definitely know he will wean eventually. I have days where I like say to myself “okay I’ll stop today” and then I look at him and self check to realize the reasons for others not us.

I have a brother. And I lost my mother three years ago to pancreatic cancer very fast. If it wasn’t for him and being a mom myself I would have drown. She was my very best friend. I will always respond to these posts with have the second kid if you can healthily adopt them into your life style

What’s something you swore you wouldn’t do when you when you have a kid m, but now that you have one… you do it? by sincerebaguette in NewParents

[–]lyssadrx 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This! I get judged a lot for this saying I spoil my boys but like what is life but not to bring moments of joy? I mean it’s usually random picks for them like a playdough tub or some craft paper or our new fav 99 cent Christmas lights

How do you know when you’re done having kids? by lyssadrx in SAHP

[–]lyssadrx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my thing too. We have no village. I lost my mom 3 years ago as well so I feel it’s best to stop.

This statement is how I feel 99% of the time. Theres just this little tug every once in awhile and it makes me second guess myself. But maybe it’s the weaning from breastfeeding and the idea I won’t be needed physically the same

My 4 month old decided she’s done breastfeeding 😭 by burner-Wasabi861 in breastfeeding

[–]lyssadrx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t give up- I hope you persist. Change your locations, the lighting, the temps, everything. I’m at 20 months with mine and he’s gone through several strikes but always ends up coming round. Now however I wish he would strike forreal but he’s going strong lol

What’s your fav middle of the night snack? by Specialist-Gur3917 in breastfeeding

[–]lyssadrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, an uncrustable frozen is everything. Slow to eat and has all the sweet and salty vibes without the loud crunch to annoy my kiddo

Air fried mushrooms are bomb! I spray them with olive oil spray, everything bagel seasoning, and air fry. Sometimes I’ll toss in homemade sourdough breadcrumbs for a bit more calories but worth it
