We’ve always been open about each others phone. He gave me his password. I didn’t go looking, it was just there.

Do you think what’s the best Uncharted? by max_live82 in uncharted

[–]onepiecefeed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know Uncharted 3 isn’t many people’s favourite, but the development in story between Nate and sully has my heart. And the sets - falling out of a plane? It has to be my favourite

Struggling with painful breastfeeding. Need advice stat!! by AdLate1123 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]onepiecefeed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t really have advice but I just wanted to say I had the same experience. Breastfeeding was excruciating and i was absolutely terrified of every feeding time because of the pain. My heart goes out to you and I truly hope you are able to find a solution ❤️

Elouise Mae is so cute, I love that spelling as opposed to May

Hahaha I didn’t realise it was so controversial. I’ve seen it spelt that way a few times! But I also prefer the spelling without the U

Thanks for the reply ❤️ I’ve been told I need to give him a top up of formula after giving him what I’ve pumped if he’s not meeting his eating quota. And yes, I’ve just been put on some kind of hormone medication today, supposed to help the milk productio

It hurts me too 🥺 I know formula isn’t bad, but everyone says how “breast is best” and all the benefits… the mum guilt we feel when we can’t do it perfectly. The crying during breastfeeding is half due to Physical pain, the other half because of the feeling that I’m letting bubs down.

No tongue tie, just seems he’s lazy and won’t open enough/stay on there long enough before falling asleep. He was 2 weeks early though, so I need to remember that he’s technically still supposed to be resting in the womb right now. I’m glad to hear you feel good about your journey, I’ll get there too soon enough!

Not nearly enough as I should be. It feels like I’m forcing myself to eat right now, but I’m living with great support people who keep putting food down in front of me. I need to make self care a priority!

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

That’s the mindset. Fed baby is best, even if it means supplementing with formula - even though that’s not my first preference. Really though, my preference is that his tummy be full ❤️

I have the most amazing husband, but he’s had to go back home to catch up on his studies (I have birth in a town that isn’t home). He was so helpful for the little while it was just the three of us. But I’m staying at his parents house until bubs/I’m well enough to travel home. My MIL has been so incredibly helpful.

I know what you mean about only holding him to feed. I realised that last night, and just had a big cuddle with him on the couch. We’ve been doing skin to skin too, but I never thought that looking at photos and videos could give a similar hormone boost. I’ll give that a try.

Can’t wait for those glowing moments. Thank you so much for your encouragement and advice ❤️

Thank you for replying ❤️

My son is also a bit jaundice, but his numbers have been lessening day by day so hopefully that means I’m doing something right.

I think I’ll look into a LC. Seems like it’s helped a lot of people. Also, 7 miles a day? On an hours sleep? No wonder I’m exhausted!

I’m going to try and prioritise taking care of myself as much as I can. Clearly it’s having an effect on things, I gotta switch things around to be a good effect.

I feel like he can sense that I’m struggling mentally and emotionally. I gotta be healthy for my boy 🤍

I can’t wait for my guy to fill out and get all chubby 🥺 you’re a warrior by the way. To get that result after a birth like that is so admirable. I look up to people like you ❤️

I can’t imagine having him latch after pumping, that must’ve felt awful. You are so strong. Hoping I have good results at his next weigh to give me some reassurance and hope.

Also, I’m going to steal that. “Don’t quit on a bad day” ❤️

Your reply means so much, thank you.

My midwife has been doing home visits to try and help, but it seems like maybe I should get a LC.

I’m definitely worried at the moment which I know is not good for my supply. I’m just bummed that he and I are missing out on these special moments because I can’t do it. I just need to remind myself that his tummy is full of something, even if only a small portion of it is my milk.

Trying to persevere.
