is it bad that sense im gonna breastfeed, i dont want my daughter to use a pacifier or bottle? i jist wanna go straight from breastfeeding to sippy cup, opinions please this is my first baby
I have been EBF for 5 months and counting and I don't have an interest in pacifiers or bottles! And my daughter doesn't like them anyway!! Totally your choice momma!
I think that is a perfectly fine thing to do! It is your baby, entirely your decision. I'm going to be breastfeeding but I plan to use a pacifier and bottle if needed, but I still really respect your decision not to!
There are plenty of other things good for teething. Baltic Amber teething necklaces have natural pain relieving properties (they aren't for chewing, they're just for wearing), and celery is good for teething. I would treat my nephew with sugar free ice pops when he went through his teething stages. Look it up, there are plenty of things for teething than pacifiers, plus it's not cute when kids have weirdly formed mouths because of thumb sucking or pacifiers.
I strictly didn't want to use a pacifier but the hospital gave my son one on the last day there. I was mad about it but it helped us the first 2 weeks home. My son would only suck on it for a few mins, calm down and spit it out. He's almost 5 months now and will only suck on a pacifier for a few minutes once in a blue moon. I am happy he isn't "addicted" to one though!
like my mom gave me a pacifier and she got mad when i told her that i dont want my daughter having one if she needs to teeth on something she can use a teething ring
It's your baby, so it's your choice. :) You may want to use bottles eventually though, so others can feed baby while you rest or shower or drive, etc, but if you want to exclusively breastfeed, then more power to you. Pacifiers are unnecessary though. And some babies don't even take them.
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...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
9 months no bottles no pacifier. and sippy cups just of water! she loves her sippy cup
