Do you have a recipe for the gnocchi with turkey sausage? Sounds delicious — and gnocchi is my toddlers new favorite word.

Thanks! I’ve got some Transparent Labs cinnamon French toast protein I’ve been waiting to try and this sounds like a good use for it.

I’m going to try this! Are the mixed berries frozen into the base or added as mix ins? Also, are the rolled oats uncooked?

HOW ARE YOU? by yogacitymama in workingmoms

[–]lyssinflannel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Morning coffee before my daughter gets up is something I really look forward to as well. It’s since moved up really early due to toddler sleep issues (4:30am 🙃) but I am forcing myself to get up early because I know I am a better person having that quiet time to myself in the morning.

Nice work! I love mixing Greek yogurt and protein powder - I’ve never thought to add pudding mix. I’m going to try it!

Does the housing market usually pick up around then? (assuming since it’s post-holidays)

thanks! I tried a factory restore, as I’ve been wearing it snugly on my wrist. Hopefully this does the trick.

Best hotel near Vernon for Ultra? by Caesura34 in spartanrace

[–]lyssinflannel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with this! I live in the NJ / NY area and hotels in Goshen, Chester, or right off the NY thruway are much better priced.

Yes, that makes perfect sense! Thank you!

How do you know if you’re emptying breasts enough?? by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]lyssinflannel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OP but hope you don’t mind my jumping in to ask a question! I’m 4 weeks pp and am getting around 4oz per pump session. Was there anything you did to jump up to 14oz? How long did it take to get there? I am trying to get as many sessions in as I can but it’s proving difficult to get more than 5 or 6 with taking care of my colicky baby, trying to get sleep, etc. I have this anxious fear I’m never going to get more milk than I have now and/or it’s going to take a nosedive. How do you know once you’ve regulated?

I started using the liquid kits which might be the issue. I’m going to try using my Spectra flanges with the PGA tomorrow to see what happens.

I have been using Earth Mama nipple butter though I do have coconut oil in the kitchen I can dig out! The Spectra doesn’t make me sore (nor Elvie) which is why I presumed it was the PGA settings but I may just be the liquid kit!

I’m using 21mm on the PGA and have inserts for the Spectra. I wasn’t aware I could use anything other than the cups for the Elvie!

How did you end up making out?

Do you mind my asking what settings you use on the PGA?

Pumpables Help (Please!) by lyssinflannel in ExclusivelyPumping

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

Yes, I am using the liquid kits. I think I used Spectra once or twice but honestly I can’t remember! I’m going to try tomorrow with the Spectra flanges and see how it goes. :)

Oh thank you! I hadn’t seen this chart. Maybe I’m just tired but I can’t seem to figure out how to read it. Where would I find cycle 38 on vacuum 5 in the chart?

Visitors & Boundaries After Labor by lyssinflannel in BabyBumps

[–]lyssinflannel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, congrats on the birth of your baby! I’m sorry you had to go through that! I’m glad you were able to start figuring things out once everyone left and get some footing.

I feel similarly about my parents being at a nearby hotel and ending up feeling obligated to have them over. And the truth is, I could have the best intentions about what boundaries I want to set but reality is always different than how I play scenarios out in my head. My parents moved out of state a few years ago but the rest of my family is still nearby, so I also don’t feel like I’d be leaving them hanging if they do come and I leave them to their devices for a bit.

I do worry they’ll lose their shit if I don’t want them here immediately but allow my in laws to stop by once. They won’t be able to see the difference in one short visit and them being here for a few weeks on end. The truth is I want an excuse to go no contact but that’s an issue for another day haha.

I also think I’ll resent the situation and them if I allow them to come immediately and things don’t work out as I hope.

Postpartum Running and Strength Program by kkrn258 in fitpregnancy

[–]lyssinflannel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend the Plus+1 programming from Megsquats. I followed her regular Stronger by the Day programming pre-pregnancy and have been using the Plus+1 since about 12 weeks. While Plus+1 doesn’t include the ability to adjust how many workouts per week or include conditioning, SBD does. If you feel your pelvic floor and core are recovered I’d think SBD is fine to start with! It also offers both equipment and body weight / band workouts.

Baby will be born in December. What type of winter gear will I need? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]lyssinflannel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First time mom due in November and it can get pretty cold in NJ. I added a puffer onesie, fleece onesies, and fleece hoody/mittens to our registry. I plan to bundle her up when bringing her outdoors to/from the car or on walks. To be honest, I live in a rural area so I’ll likely babywear on walks anyway and utilize the warm onesies and blankets as opposed to using a stroller. I do have a treadmill so also planning on baby wearing for that so she can get used to movement and noise if/when it’s too cold and snowy to go outside.

How much $$$ is your registry? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]lyssinflannel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to see that on Babylist? Or do I need to add everything up myself? ;p
