So yesterday I was diagnosed with moderate postpartum depression..I wasn't quite sure how to really feel about it..but since I'm breastfeeding, instead of putting me on medication she told me to take at least an hour outside with my daughter, start taking vitamin d, and cut out my nightly feeding with my daughter and feed her formula at night so I can sleep...that made me feel even worse because formula wasn't part of my plan at all...😞 also my grandmother and mother were giving me a lot of guilt for always picking up my baby when she cried & so I felt like I always had to let her cry it out and not follow my motherly instincts..which I believe is what has lead me to where I am today. So ladies always go with your instinct, no matter what anyone says. You're the mom, not them. It made me feel better when my doctor said for me to not worry about them. She even wrote on one of her prescription papers a note for them saying for me to hold my baby and signed it with a little smiley face. I love my doc. Just kinda needed to vent

Yes but she feels like my hormone levels need to start coming back naturally so I wouldn't have to be on a pill that would make me not be able to breast feed altogether
That's a blessing from your doctor and you can also remember that you don't have to cut out your nightly feeding you can continue to breastfeed exclusively if you choose to .remember what you said in this post this is your baby not theirs ...
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Try finding omega 3 pills. A nurse that I am friends with says studies are being done and it can elevate moods and emergent levels. You want to find something that has only omega 3 and not 6 or 9.
