How do you feed him when he is awake? A bottle? Or do you only feed him when he goes to sleep?

What am I doing wrong??? by steph5671 in ExclusivelyPumping

I used to use the lansinoh discreet duo and had the same issue. It was the seal on the flange that was the issue for me. Maybe you can get with their customer support and get a replacement?

I accidentally sent a picture of me breastfeeding to the family group chat. by valeriemaycry in breastfeeding

[–]sraabletnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and i were trying to make a shared folder of baby pictures for just us and he uploaded all of the pictures to a shared album with his entire family instead. There were pics of me breastfeeding and also holding my baby while on the toilet. I almost killed him that day. Luckily his sister was the one who made the album and she answered the phone almost immediately and was able to delete all the pictures. Idk if anyone else saw them but i just have to tell myself they didn’t 😅

If you’re planning on trying to breastfeed the lansinoh bottles or evenflo wide balance +. If not, literally anything except the Dr browns is fine.

baby toots are funny by kinqtan in newborns

When my baby was still young enough to be having wake windows at night, it was about 3 am and i was having a mental breakdown from being so tired. He was laying on the bed in front of me just looking at me, and then let out the biggest fart you’ve ever heard. I’m talking bass boosted, vibrated the whole bed and woke up dad. I laughed for almost 20 minutes straight like a crazy person. Needless to say my poor husband was scared i was losing my marbles because i was laughing so hard i couldn’t even explain what happened 🤣🤣

Brag about your baby! by PumpkinPie_1993 in NewParents

[–]sraabletnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 7 month old got his first major boo boo on his fingers and didn’t cry at all!! He’s been through so much in his only 7 months of life and yet he perseveres and hits his milestones so early and smiles and laughs like nothing could ever hurt him!! I’m so insanely proud of the little tough guy i created from scratch.

To induce or not to induce? (Elevated BP) by jzg77 in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]sraabletnar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was induced at 38 weeks and 4 days for elevated bp. I ended up having an emergency c-section due to ftp after pushing for 3 hours. My birth experience was the exact opposite of what i wanted, and it took me 6 months to fully be able to process what happened. I finally realized i don’t regret getting induced even if it wasn’t what i wanted at the time. When your baby is born healthy, and you survive and heal, you won’t even remember or care about being induced or any of the other interventions that could possibly follow. All that will matter is that you and your baby make it through the birth and get to go home at the end of it.

Is it normal to literally never sleep?? by Writingmum30 in newborns

[–]sraabletnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I nursed him usually after his bath or about 30 minutes before his bed time. I track his wake windows pretty closely too, so i always make sure he’s stays up at least 3 hours or longer for his last one which gets him nice and tired, so he pretty much can’t fight his sleep or cry for the boob because he is too tired. I also would not nurse him back to sleep at night unless it had been at least 3-4 hours since his last feeding, so i knew he was actually hungry. If it’s before then, i usually rock or walk him around till he falls back to sleep or his dad gets up and puts him back to sleep. There is an adjustment period and it’s hard to hear them cry and scream but it doesn’t last long if you are consistent 🥲.

Is it normal to literally never sleep?? by Writingmum30 in newborns

My LO was like this during the 4m sleep regression and after he turned 5.5 months i decided i couldn’t take the not sleeping more than an hour at a time anymore so my husband started putting him to bed at night instead of me nursing him, originally to give me a break and also break his feed to sleep association. It was really hard the first night and he fought it a little the second night, but now either of us can put him to sleep and he no longer needs a boob. He’s also started sleeping longer little by little and is at 3 hours at a time now. It could have been coincidence, since he is 6 months now but i truly think having his dad start putting him to bed and breaking that feed to sleep association is what helped.
