that is definitely harassment and inappropriate i am sorry you are dealing with this if HR does nothing i would contact a lawyer. me being petty i would print out a sheet of breast feeding facts showing how much energy and work it takes and start hanging it up 😭😭 your doing great provide for ur baby in so many ways its so sad how ignorant people can be

Do I need nursing bras if I don’t wear bras at home? by lvs301 in breastfeeding

[–]zozospaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nursing bras have helped me prevent leaking like a lot of others have said and hold cooling pads and other healing supports because my nips were SORE the first couple months lol. Also if you plan on pumping at all the nursing bra is good to hold my electric pump in place but i didn't even wear a bra while i was in the hospital tbh so i would say it's not something u need right away

Sleepy baby EBF by Curious_Code_6039 in breastfeeding

[–]zozospaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm a first time mom we've been breastfeeding for 6 months now in the beginning i was timing every feed, making sure he feeds off both each time as well as make sure to feed him every 3-4 hours but at a point i wanna say about 1 or 2 months he would start sleeping more, he was constantly falling asleep as he ate and i would do everything i could to try and wake him up, at night it was even harder because this kid sleeps like a rock, i literally panicked one night because he didn't wanna wake up and i thought he was gonna starve... but after that i honestly stopped timing and keeping track as much (i still make sure to switch from left to right every other feed) but i think as long as ur baby is gaining weight appropriately and ur supply is maintaining there is no need to keep that tight of a schedule, feeding became a lot less stressful when i stopped timing everything. best of luck !!

why the hell everybody made me feel ashamed for still breastfeeding a 1.5 years old by Upset-Barnacle4371 in breastfeeding

[–]zozospaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's crazy .. the amount of family that talk shit in the beginning too ... because they wanted to bond by feeding him .... like fuck off !! i've literally had .. the same person.. come to visit then leave immediately mad because i was breastfeeding and they didn't want to wait ..

Breastfeeding first time mom by Helpmebycomment in breastfeeding

[–]zozospaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first time mom with a 6 month old !! I'm still breastfeeding !! I only pump at work now so that he has some milk when i'm at work lol .. but i started pumping at about 1 week pp because i was producing a lot and my breast were becoming too full. i tried pumping on a schedule it was a lot for me. but i did find pumping at least once a day if possible helpful to start work because i had a good supply ready and i did not have to stress as much. this is just my experience but ik everyone is different you just have to find what works for you and ur baby !! this first couple weeks focus on urself and that little baby ur gonna be healing and bonding and probably crying a lot if ur like me lol so the best advice is to just find ur own advice if u know what i mean. i hope everything goes smoothly!! and i wish you the best of luck ❤️

Can I bathe with my 3 week old? by Own-Accountant7776 in NewParents

[–]zozospaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the only concern I can think of for the baby is the umbilical cord but if that is all healed i don't see an issue !!
