The more research I gather on breast feeding and after watching how easy it is for my sister the angrier I get when I get formula samples in the mail. I just don't understand a momma who wouldn't breast feed if she's capable! I get some people can't, or some babies can't and there are always special circumstances. But my MIL just straight up didn't breast feed her kids because she "thought it was disgusting" like what?!
well she'd never be babysitting cause you not gonna deprive a baby food she's an ass excuse my French Please don't leave that precious baby with her 😒 EVER
@supermommy31082, I've heard of a lot of people having issues with that! And yeah my MIL said if she ever babysat my son she wouldn't give him my breast milk either because it's "unnatural and nasty!" She makes NO sense!
yeah you will be able too but no I hate people that say its nasty its the most natural thing on the planet and I wanted to breast feed but when my boobs fill up they feel like boulders and I wanna die lol
@supermommy31082, see that's a good reason! Like I said everyone has circumstances! And I'm sure you are still a super great mommy! I hope I can breast feed. It's a learning process!
well I ain't breast feed because I didn't want too my boobs were and are super huge and hurt like hell I can't I don't think its gross people who say that are asses its natural and healthy but I also am a single mom who works I have no time for breast feeding and the main reason my boobs hurt like hell good luck tho 😊😊😊😊
@aimers8031, my MIL is only 39! She had my husband at 18. But I get what you mean! And @valereleo I'm sorry! I know it's tiring and definitely hard work. It's just SO good for your baby. My niece is the same way though. She's 6 weeks old and still eats every 2-3 hours and sometimes more often than that!
I don't have any problems breastfeeding but my lil guy likes to eat and eat and eat so I've used the formula samples a few times just because I was literally too worn out from feeding to keep feeding. but he projectile vomits that stuff so I probably won't do it any more. but breastfeeding is hard. and my boobs work great, but dang it's tiresome and I have to watch what I eat
they did have different views on breastfeeding 30+ years ago. It wasn't as encouraged, and they probably didn't know all the benefits like we do today. @rheganolivia . But I totally get where you are coming from ☺
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!!
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.
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...
@rheganolivia, good for you for sticking to your guns! It's your child and you know what's best! I just can't believe she thinks breast feeding is unnatural and disgusting! How does she think babies were fed before formula was ever even thought of?! What about baby animals who feed from their mothers too, does she think that's gross?? Like, what the hell? I'm sorry you're going through that! But i look up to you for standing your ground and doing what's best for your elections baby 🙂
