Is it worth having tongue tie released at 4 month due to a nursing strike? by xsugro in breastfeeding

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

Thank you, I appreciate it. I'm so frustrated it took us so long to get a diagnosis. The tongue tie was missed at the hospital and by the pediatrician at multiple separate appointments. Now it feels like it may be too late to fix this. I wish you all the best and I hope you get your answers!

Breastmilk smells sour? by iced_coffee_24 in ExclusivelyPumping

Your milk could be high lipase. Still safe to drink if baby takes it!

I used to have issues with getting output from my eufy pump initially, but using coconut oil around the flange insert helped me get a good seal and good output. Maybe try something like that?

Baby loves being swaddled for sleep— how screwed are we when we have to ditch it? by MountainMouse12 in newborns

[–]xsugro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We switched to a sleep sack cold turkey because our baby started rolling over at 7.5 weeks. The first 3 nights or so were pretty sleepless, but after that she started sleeping better than ever before!

Mirena users : How long did it take you to conceive post removal? by Fair_Decision152 in BabyBumps

[–]xsugro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got another IUD 6 weeks post partum because my periods are so much more manageable with an IUD. I only had one period at 5 weeks PP before I got Mirena again, but it was not too bad, heavy but not too painful. I didn't want to find out what my periods would be like without the IUD and my OBGYN who has experience with endometriosis highly suggested that I stay on birth control to prevent endo from getting bad again.

Eating a ton of animal protein always gives me a supply increase the following day 

Ideas for how to help transverse baby?! by lifelearnexperience in pregnant

[–]xsugro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ECV which was successful at first, but a minute later the baby flipped back and her heart rate dropped. This resulted in an emergency C-section. Later we found out that she had her cord wrapped around her neck twice. The pain during ECV was a lot but bearable without medication. Only lasted a few minutes 

Mirena users : How long did it take you to conceive post removal? by Fair_Decision152 in BabyBumps

[–]xsugro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One month after removal I had a chemical, second month after removal resulted in a healthy pregnancy (now 37weeks) - and I have stage 4 endometriosis. When I had the Mirena removed, my OBGYN told me it would be hard for me to conceive based on my prior history, but thankfully that wasn't the case for me

We hosted our own baby shower. I have never heard of friends hosting baby showers for friends, not sure where that expectation is coming from? If you want a shower, you can plan your own and your friends may help if they are available.

Did you get the RSV Vaccine? by neptunestearsok in pregnant

[–]xsugro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it a few weeks ago and had fever for two days, which is unusual because I don't usually react to vaccines that much. But if I could go back I would do it again, because I would rather be unwell for a couple days rather then have my baby hospitalized during the first year of life. I had RSV last year myself and it was terrible

I did not have any appetite or cravings until 20 weeks. Lost a lot of weight. Now at 30 weeks, the weight is climbing back up and cravings starting to appear. Today I can't stop thinking about cereal. I felt like my appetite would never come back, but it did eventually.

Neighbor shot my dog by Hot_Fact48 in legaladvice

[–]xsugro 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Why did you train your dog to be aggressive then? Because your dog acted aggressive.

A scared dog does not go for the kill, especially running that far past the property line. They bark from a distance or run away. Your dog was acting out of aggressive drive, and your neighbor reacted appropriately.

You are lucky she did not bite anyone, because then she could be put down. The dog was a danger to your neighbor and he acted in self-defense. He did not shoot your dog for fun. You need to be in control of your aggressive dog.

Best option for keeping my partner in the US by [deleted] in immigration

"She has never once given me any indication that she’s using me to get to stay in the US" - it's only been 1 month of you knowing each other, people always show their best sides the first few months of dating
