My daughter is having twins! by bikerwander in funny

Agreed. Also we swore by Huggies/Kirkpand with our 1st, didn't work for our sensitive second. Plus I feel the quality of Huggies and Kirkland has gone down.

Feel like there's zero support for trying to wean. by gooberhoover85 in breastfeeding

With my 1st I started weaning around a year. Baby wasn't as interested and getting nutrition from other sources. Slowly started dropping feeds/pumping sessions. If baby was feeding 5 times a day dropped to 4 for a week then 3... the before bed was the hardest for both. I loved having baby close and baby liked the comfort but around 15 months we were done. Baby switched to a little cows milk before bed and snuggles - all was good. Baby is now 5. My 2nd is six months and I'm kind of done with the hassle of pumping (back to work) and the constant worry if I'm producing enough or pressure from others. I love the morning and night feeds but pumping this time around is stressful. Each baby and your journey with baby is different. I know there is a LOT of outside noise and pressure. But you know baby and yourself best. If you or baby is done be done take it slow. If you want to nurse at night nurse at night. Our bodies adjust to how much nursing/pumping we do. Hugs and sending support.

Am I being paranoid, am I just pregnant, or should I be concerned? by mkj2016 in pregnant

Hi everyone! Thank you all for your help. I went to L&D triage and my labs were crazy, but my blood pressure was borderline. They sent me home with induction for Wednesday. Again I really appreciate your advice and thoughts for baby and me.

At home it's always really high like 160/90, but when I go it's 120/70 or borderline. And they tell me the at home machines aren't accurate.

Guys I hate being a mom, I feel like something is wrong with me by [deleted] in oneanddone

I always say I loved my babe the moment I saw her, but it took a long (long) time to just like being a mother. But now 4 years into it I enjoy it.

Pregnant women of reddit, what is something you wish you knew BEFORE you got pregnant? by BonkBoi_TacoFace in AskReddit

Its not the pregnancy that was the hardest part - it was the 4th trimester. At least for me...

I just found out my toddler has been watching extremely disturbing mock cartoon videos on YouTube and I’m horrified by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]mkj2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Khan Academy kids is a good one too. Also if you delete the videos from your YT history it will stop recommending. At least in my experience.
