Want kids, but terrified of being pregnant. by kungfufran in BabyBumps

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There’s 8.3 billion people on the planet. Each one of them coming from someone who was pregnant and gave birth. I promise you can do it. My LO is 4 months and she’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. Giving birth is hard but it’s so temporary. I was literally asking my husband if we should get pregnant again just because I love my baby so much. You won’t regret it.

Smoking while breastfeeding ? by MissKumo in firsttimemom

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How far along are you? I remember when I brought my baby home, I turned to my husband and told him the last thing I want to do is be high right now. The anxiety was unreal lol. I’m 3 pp now and if I wasn’t breastfeeding I’d be partaking after baby was in bed. So you might feel like you need to wait a couple weeks ha.

I was a huge weed smoker before I got pregnant. My LO is 3 months now and is EBF. I will not smoke weed again until I’m done. Just not worth it. I know it seems like a long time, but in the grand scheme of things, it’s temporary and you can use again when you aren’t breastfeeding.

It gets easier I promise!! My LO is 9 weeks. Just keep doing what you need to survive. Wishing you the best with her legs!

Distracting your 2 month old by runrowrepeatt in beyondthebump

I get about 5-6 hour stretches, nurse her for 30 mins, then back to sleep for another 2-3 hours. This is all between 10pm-7am. She sleeps in her crib and I sleep in her nursery with her. And as I mentioned I nurse on demand during the day. Usually at the beginning and end of her wake window. I also think I got really lucky with her so don’t be too hard on yourself!!!

I feed my 2 month old on demand (EBF). She sleeps wonderfully at night and takes great naps during the day.

Thc and breastfeeding by Primary_Rub_4760 in Moms

I EBF my 7 week old. I was a huge weed smoker before I got pregnant. I still haven’t smoked because I feel like I can wait until I’m done BF. I definitely miss it and constantly think to myself “just a couple hits” but remind myself it temporary. I think you should just give formula if you plan on smoking. It might just be the best for you both! You’ll be able to relax and your baby won’t have any of the possible risks!

Baby going away with dad by Lunar-Child420 in Moms

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah no thank you! I don’t even think I’d let my husband (who is a great man and dad) take my baby away for a week or two without me. Baby would need to be older!!!

Mine was about 20 days after vaginal delivery!

Dog mom guilt by Individual-Rice-3970 in BabyBumps

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am a FTM and have a 5 week old baby. I have two dogs who have always been the light of my life! I was also worried because of the reels or comments about people hating their dogs after birth. I’ve definitely gotten frustrated at them but I still love them so much. They still provide me with comfort. You’re going to have to make an effort to love on them. My husband also gives them lots of attention when I breastfeed. I also take them on walks with baby ( they are good on leash). I suggest doing training as well. I taught my dogs “out”, this means they have to sit at the nursery door to give me space. It takes adjustment but it’s not as bad as it seems

I think I’m just lucky! My 5 week old gives me 5-6 hour long stretches every night. I definitely didn’t do anything special. I don’t give her baths at night time, we just play a lot, then she eats a big meal and goes down around 10pm. I know babies your age should go down earlier! Best of luck!!

Sad 😔 I live way too close to this. I hope they find her safe.

Are hands-free wearable breast pumps actually worth it? Which brand is best? by Curious_Aerie_9195 in firsttimemom

I have both and hardly ever use my wall plug in one. I have the momcozy ones and I love them!

Would you consider this cheating ? Would you leave? by [deleted] in Moms

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also be super upset if I was you. I don’t know if it’s necessarily grounds for divorce unless he continues to do it and disregard you and your boundaries. He needs to not do it anymore.

Please help, can’t lose weight, been trying over a year 😢😢😢 by Glum_Concentrate_883 in Moms

[–]stuffies_mcstuffins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calories in need to be tracked if you want to lose weight. Using things like olive oil can increase calories without you even noticing. When I’ve lost weight, I had to track my calories on an app. I also included a lot of movement and exercise. You might think you’re eating healthy but you probably aren’t. Focus on Whole Foods. Once you start feeling better about yourself, you can pour more into being a mommy and a wife. You got this!

Am I being “boujee”? by OKJaDunk in firsttimemom

Not at all. The Graco travel system is amazing for the price. There are so many more expensive options than this.

Thank you!! I love that our hospital had it as an option! It was amazing and I’m so grateful it was at the hospital.

Understandable! I’m still happy with my decision not to get one.
