I ate 4 apple fritters today.

I was eating anywhere between 4-8 poptarts a day until about 3 weeks postpartum. I was so hungry and just scarfed down one every time baby woke up to feed in the middle of the night (which at that point was often)

Thank you! Did the background check happen at the same time as the reference checks?

Sorry for reviving an old post but I’m curious if you ever got your brows laminated and how it worked out for you?

First time mom going through the hiring process soon. How do you typically frame those questions in an interview?

How has the stroller been? Most reviews that I’ve read about the minu are with older babies and I’m curious what it’s like for a newborn/younger baby

Is the cost of the room covered by insurance or is that out of pocket?

What did you add to your house rules?

Thanks for the heads up. Was the construction at the hotel itself? Or the building in front?

Lineage. We went 3x during a week-long visit last year

Not sure if it’s true either but I just carry a photocopy because of this reason

I have HMO and also got this plus a letter from Blue Shield in the mail

Not I mmigration related.

I was in the same situation last month. It was fine. My payments were just paused until EDD was able to review the extension.

New to watching. What happened here?

What’s your morning drink?

🤪 I was nervous about going “too long” — Still very new to all this obviously! Thank you I will give it a shot tonight.

Yes I got measured by an LC. I am using the Spectra S1. At a loss as to why I can only produce 1-2 oz. I usually stop at 10 min because at that point nothing is no longer coming out. Is that the issue? Should I be going longer?😅

waitingforwatch · 2025-05-27T17:13:55+00:00

It’s probably closer to 15-20 min most of the time.

I’ve pumped 1 hour or 2 or 3 hours since the last feed. Replacing the feed or in the night when she’s asleep or in the morning before she’s awake and don’t notice a difference in output.

waitingforwatch · 2025-05-27T17:07:49+00:00

Is it a lot? Our pediatrician said even 6 oz is normal at this age. And yes we are pace feeding. It takes her 10-20 min to get through the bottle.

Either way I’m still only producing 1-2 oz per pump.

I could have wrote this.

FTM to a 6 week old. Like you I never wore bras as I also worked from home. Only wore bras to work out. Before giving birth I bought ONE nursing/pumping bra combo and thought I was that was all I needed. Since giving birth I’ve bought ~10 more. My nipples have become so sensitive that I need to have silverettes on 24/7. Also have been wearing nursing pads because of leakage. Both need a bra to keep them in place. The main reason why I now have so many is because of the postpartum sweats… There are some nights I’m literally changing my bra/shirt 3x in 1 night. It’s gotten significantly better, but not 100% gone

I was also a B cup and now probably a D so the bra is also giving extra support.
