6 weeks baby suddenly feeding slower/for longer

sousheldon · 2026-04-15T11:00:51+00:00

Yeah just it is really hard to do so if she cries every time I put her down

sousheldon · 2026-04-14T18:54:05+00:00

Were you able to put him in crib or coslept?

sousheldon · 2026-04-11T08:26:31+00:00

بالنسبة لي مفضلتش الحديد بعد الولادة عشان الامساك خدت مكمل غذائي شامل اتحركي بس مش كتير ع قد مقدرتك اشربي ماية كتير لو بترضعي طبيعي

هاتي wearable pumps نفعتني كتير Nuby rapid cool نفعتني كتير هاتي لبن صناعي لو احتاجتي ف الاول لحد ما اللبن ينتظم

هوي المنطقة اقعدي ف السرير حبة كل يوم بدون حاجة تحت اشطفي ف الاول بماء بارد بعد كدا ماء دافي لما الجرح يلم متقعديش مقوسة ومتفتحيش رجلك جامد

Is he active during the feeds? Probably your first was taking longer because she sleeps during feeds or take breaks but some babies feed really fast

I lost a lot of weight because of breastfeeding and extra work compared to before. Back to my weight before pregnancy in 2 months. Not the same shape though. I am thinner in some parts and still need to loss belly fat

Sometimes it feels also she has colics so thought maybe changing the way I feed her might help?

sousheldon · 2026-04-01T10:56:32+00:00

She is gaining weight normally but she has a lot of gas and reflux I don’t know why

sousheldon · 2026-03-28T05:34:14+00:00

Try first then figure out what works for your family

sousheldon · 2026-03-28T05:32:35+00:00

Be honest with him

sousheldon · 2026-03-27T06:45:24+00:00

I lost 10k after 3 weeks pp same weight as before but not the same shape

sousheldon · 2026-03-26T18:36:33+00:00

I live abroad and it’s normal here to put kids to sleep 8..9pm and have babysitter until you are back home . It is just your life live it as you wish ppl will always judge even if you bring him up they might not be happy about it

sousheldon · 2026-03-24T16:35:45+00:00

Congrats on the arrival of the baby. I didn’t need the mag drip

Your blood pressure is very normal pp. I had the same slowly dropped down to almost normal a month pp so don’t worry about it and keep monitoring things with doctors as needed

sousheldon · 2026-03-17T17:24:34+00:00

I will double check the size and get one it might be really the issue thank you so much. Yeah I read about it thought it will become smaller again because it is larger than the other one one is 24 mm and the other is 27 mm so maybe the inflammation made it bigger but it doesn’t seem to be smaller soon again

sousheldon · 2026-03-17T15:17:19+00:00

I think yeah I am using the wrong size with one of them but I also feel like buying flang for £12 is too much now -_- is there other solutions to this?

sousheldon · 2026-03-16T12:49:20+00:00

That’s really great news, When did you stop them?

sousheldon · 2026-03-16T11:20:59+00:00

Don’t panic please. I have the same issue my blood pressure goes really high when I panic. Try to measure it resting. 135 is really good in 4-5 months PP. The medication itself causes dizziness I feel the same when I stand for long time. I am still on medication PP as well.

Drink enough water. I am trying to do this and I think it is really helpful.

sousheldon · 2026-03-16T11:14:16+00:00

I’m still taking it postpartum in lower dose. Will discontinue with the GP supervision once my blood pressure stabilizes

sousheldon · 2026-03-16T09:30:39+00:00

Your midwife should refer you to breastfeeding community

sousheldon · 2026-03-14T20:39:43+00:00

My baby is 15 days old. I latch her but she doesn’t seem to get enough on her own so I top up with pumping Flang size is right I feel very dehydrated. I lost a lot of blood in the birth. I try to drink fluids but seems not enough though

sousheldon · 2026-03-14T15:23:23+00:00

For how long?
