Good Morning! Calling all BREASTFEEDING MOMS!!!! Ok wow breastfeeding is hard work 😓 what are some suggestions or things that have worked for y'all? Do you have to breastfeed every 2-3hrs??? My baby doesn't get hungry that often and it's hard to get her to wake up to feed! ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED! THANKS 😘❤️

@steph11 thank you for the encouraging words. She feeds every 3-4hrs and has regular pee/poo diapers like 4 of each a day!
@ce5ce, she is 4 days old today. She has been feeding every 3-4 hrs I was just worried bc nurses said every 2hrs. Got the nipple cream!!!! And I agree with water bc I get so thirsty! Thanks for the advice 😘
don't eat junk food it makes their tummy all messed up you pretty much have to be on a health kick kind of diet which I'm saying all this and i don't do It and my daughter gets uncomfortable every time so i keep her on formula
also, do what feels right for you two every baby is different and has different needs. what every you think is best is what is best for baby. best of luck. breastfeeding does get easier!!
just feed on demand it's so much easier. during the day I feed my 9 week old about every 1.5 to 2 hours sometimes longer than at night she sleep 7 hours usually. once baby gets back up to birth weight you can let her sleep longer at night vrs waking up. I had to wake Sadie up every 2 hours to eat for 2 weeks due to jaundice then she slept through the night
when you get home lots of snacks are needed and LOTS OF water to keep hydrated because feedings drain you
how old is your baby. the first 24hrs is hard to get them to eat but they'll eat when hungry so don't best yourself and enjoy the time off. ask the nurses for nipple cream because the next few days you sing be able to keep them off and it's normal. no matter how good of a latch you have you'll be sore a little. experiment with different positions to feed. and don't listen to the nurses telling you she feeds too much or not enough because your child tells you if she/he is hungry
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...
Hey Ladies,
If you want to participate, we have a new game starting Sunday. Thanks to @Regelbaby for suggesting and @valerie_jean for seconding it. It's called ShoutOut Mommy Sundays or #SMS. Post a photo of a mom, mom-to-be or TTC mom on here and say something kind about her. On Wednesdays, we can do the same for babies, Wonderful Baby Wednesdays #WBW. We know that some moms are totally against photo copying, but we had a good response to these games. And be sure these photos will ONLY be share...
