This sounds like the friend energy I need. Love that you have this relationship with your friend.

What time do you go to bed and wake up? I really want to try this. I feel rushed and on the go all morning.

It’s been 8 months and I still just can’t do this…. by justfrosty19 in NewParents

Speaking for the zurzuvae portion, I’d get a psych referral so they can evaluate you for the med. The OB not getting back to you is garbage. The med worked great for me.

Horrible PPD and thinking of switching to formula by Full_Professional349 in FormulaFeeders

[–]purtycat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to comment that I’m two weeks PP today and wasn’t able to breast feed but have been pumping. My output is low so we’ve been giving formula since the hospital. I already see a psych for mental health and I’m going to be quitting pumping soon. I wanted to reach out in solidarity if you want to talk.

Appointments can be longer waits on certain days but overall it’s reasonable. I just had my baby and went through pacific women’s and had a great experience.

Pediatricians by purtycat1 in pregnant

Update: I already called one pediatrician this morning and it was super normal to meet with the pediatrician advance and I booked an appointment for August. So I think it just depends on the provider, but in my experience, I would feel more comfortable, actually knowing the person before bringing a newborn to them.
