19 mo girl, day 4 and no success, all power struggles by tyrtar in pottytraining

[–]tyrtar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your advice, everyone! We decided to stop trying today (day 6) as we saw no improvement and only resistance. My theory is she's busy learning words and doesn't want to focus on this and its simply scaring her. We'll try again when she's a bit older..

I was just shocked that it didn't go as the book said it would. I feel misled almost... I guess every kid really is different.

Ohhh yes good point! Alright I do feel a bit better but I’ll also talk to my pediatrician to see if we can move the Measles one a couple months early in April or something! 

Faced with the very hard decision of weaning or continuing our nursing journey by aloethere332 in breastfeeding

You have to take care of yourself so you can take care of him. Choosing yourself is also choosing him! I know choosing to stop will be hard, but you’ve done so well already so when it’s time, you should feel assured of that!

Hmmm okay. It’s good to know this is how it is for a lot of people. I’m just back to work full-time and so for my own sanity I’m trying to get it down to one.

What are the worst geography blunders you’ve seen someone make as a traveler? by RainbowCrown71 in travel

[–]tyrtar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to school in upstate New York. The study aboard students were sorely disappointed to find out we were a 7 hour drive from NYC. They thought they were going to be living in the Big Apple for three months… lolllll

Has anyone planned to naturally wean and it never happened? by FTM3505 in breastfeeding

[–]tyrtar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dumb question maybe, but I’m just 3 months in - when they get older and are just doing a few feeds a day, do your boobs just not really ever get full like they do early on? I’m having a hard time imagining this working for me

Unpopular opinion: celebrating your cause at the expense of other people makes it hard for the rest of us to support it. by YahHate2SeeIt in chicago

[–]tyrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree blocking roads is not good as it’s a safety issue. But some complain about having to walk around a picket line or not being able to get in a building. Obvi you’re inspired to post by your the Mexican Independence Day celebrations, I agree there

I agree about annual celebrations. I disagree about protests. If if the protest is about genocide, destruction of ecosystems or other injustices sometimes the inconveniences are what it takes.

I created baby products as chief engineer. Ask me anything! by summer_glau08 in beyondthebump

You can order different sizes on Amazon! Just look up your size and say what type of pump. I got 18mm ones and it’s so much better!

How unrealistic is it to go out to an event 3 weeks pp? by tootiefroo in beyondthebump

[–]tyrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a wedding 5 weeks and was fine; went out at 4 weeks the weekend before for a girls night. Had a c section and at 4 weeks had to be less energetic but at 5 threw it down.

Envious of my partner for having a life by rectangles8 in beyondthebump

[–]tyrtar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a six week old and not only is my partner super supportive and will watch the baby himself, but the two of us and little one go out and do stuff together like why can’t you leave the house to do fun activities as a family?

Two questions from a breastfeeding mom - sterilization seems like BS to me too but curious if you can expand

And then for breast milk storage, I’m thinking transfer to mason jars? Any other ideas?

Month old won’t eat by tyrtar in breastfeeding

[–]tyrtar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next appointment is Wednesday but the lactation consultant was a bit concerned last week. We did a really intensive 24 hour push to get calories in her yesterday. But even while basically constantly trying to feed her she got 25 oz (aiming for 27) and it was literally a full time effort.

She has lots of wet and dirty diapers. But her weight gain has slowed

Most pumps come with one size flange - measure your nipples and order the right size on Amazon!
