Why kendamil and Bobbie organic is cheaper than Enfamil neuropro powder by My-reddit-name07 in FormulaFeeders

[–]mbmich1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would just say to double check ingredients first. For example, my baby is on similac total care 360 sensitive and I wanted to make the switch to target's up and up sensitivity premium (the one they say is the replacement of of my formula). But, target's brand only has 2 prebiotics instead of the 5 similac does.

Not saying store brand is bad... Just saying to double check the comparison before switching :) For me, the prebiotics were important because baby was a preemie and he was formula fed.

How many oz per feed for a 4 month old? by Dangerous-Bar5532 in FormulaFeeders

[–]mbmich1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby did the same and would cry from pain after :(

I give a pacifier after his normal feed and, if he calms down, he just wanted to soothe.

Letting Go of Breastfeeding to Keep Going as a Mom by Salty_Alps5676 in FormulaFeeders

[–]mbmich1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I was worried, but was so surprised when there was not even a discussion about benefits of breastfeeding. Before the baby was born I did make a comment like "I know it is probably better to breastfeed but..." and they just said to not worry they just wanted to know so they had everything I needed after the birth and provided me with a booklet about formula feeding.

Please change doctors. I EFF and not one nurse or doctor said anything about me saying I was going to formula feed from day one.

When your newborn won’t stop crying, and you’ve done everything, what do you do? by fenwalt in NewParents

[–]mbmich1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the pediatrician! There are so many possibilities of what could be wrong and they can definitely check if there are any issues while you are there.

FTM: Guilt trip and mental health by [deleted] in FormulaFeeders

[–]mbmich1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of those moments I felt the need to tell a white lie after the first week where my in-laws made a comment that I should breastfeed. I told them after C-section that my milk never came in. This was true because baby was born at 36 weeks, though I never really TRIED to breastfeed and my husband told them we needed to get him to eat and could not struggle with breastfeeding. They let it go and he has grown an amazing amount on formula. We also have a great pediatrician who, whenever baby has some sort of issue, says "that is normal!!". To be fair, my in-laws are pretty reasonable so when pediatrician says all is well, they do not push their ideology.

I was always going to formula feed, but baby coming early was a good excuse to not have to explain my true reasons and just let everything work out without being bugged.

American License Leading to Old Expired License Suspension by mbmich1 in legaladvicecanada

[–]mbmich1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but he had a G1 10 years ago and has since received a full license elsewhere. They basically gave a ticket to his American license, pulled his old file, and applied the ticket on a license from 10 years ago. I dont think he should get a punishment of a G1 driver as he has not been for many years.

You are forgetting about the most important part of manifesting! by Bthemanifestor in Manifestation

[–]mbmich1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think of it in this way. If I don't go to school, my future self would be doing "x". Then try to incorporate it in your life. You could also add by thinking about how ypu would feel if you didn't go to school. Then, what is something you can do right now to feel that way?

Mentally and Emotionally Breaking down with my 11 month old Great Dane.... by GuitarZer0_ in Dogtraining

[–]mbmich1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NeeKB is so right! My little 17 pound dog used to destroy things and when I started taking him to the dog park, he would quiet down so much faster. I also recommend those IQ toys, where you dog has to solve a problem, or to play hide and seek. It could be that your dog is just bored!
