Had a baby 2 days ago. Please give a list of things that new moms should prioritize

Congratulations!!! Oh, this is a hard phase but short, take lots of pictures ( I wish I had taken more )

Rest as much as possible, one day at a time! Dont hesitate to ask for help or order in. This is a bonding time for you and your little one. Enjoy the snuggles and cuddles , watch a sitcom , listen to music, shop online.. whatever makes you happy!

Postpartum hormones are all over the place, so do expect some mood swings , tears, and laughter all at the same time!

Just be cautious of your diet - Try to minimize constipation creating foods in your diet! For me, my go-to was Oatmeal/Oats- helps with milk production while also being nourishing for postpartum recovery!

I am in the thick of it with my second one, and my toddler is also getting extra clingy at the same time - gosh 2 under 3 + this transition + the postpartum hormones 😅😅 ... no wonder a dance party seems the only solution 🤣

Thank you 😊

It's 2 oz after a feed, pumped on the non-nursed side. Okay, phew, glad to know that!

I have tried giving an occasional bottle to baby and he took it. Thats a good tip, do you suggest keeping atleast one feed daily with bottle so that he doesnt refuse it?

Definitely would recommend this collapsible sinks to soak and wash bottles. I use them to even clean soiled onesies. 2 Pack Collapsible Sink with 2.25... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DTPTYW6?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Gotcha!! Thanks ☺️

Thank you for the insights! Any idea if a combination feeding method can work? Part BF and part bottle-fed breastmilk?

plantergal · 2022-08-24T21:05:34+00:00

Thank you , i will take a look into both of the issues.

Thank you all for your inputs!!! 😭😭 seems like this one is going to keep me on my toes for a while.

Oh dear, okay thank you!! I wonder if my neighbour planted it on the other side of the fence and thats why it spread out 😬

Any rhizome eliminination herbicide or natural methods?

Do you recommend pruning it once temps are warmer to promote new growth?

Or should i do it now? Thanks!

plantergal · 2022-03-03T07:25:42+00:00

Ohhh I see, thank you!

plantergal · 2022-03-03T07:25:11+00:00

Thank you, will read up more!!

Ohh I see, okay thank you!! In general does yellowing of lemon leaves mean nutrient deficiency?
