I'm going on a vacation for a day and the father's mother is babysitting. (first time I'll ever be away from my son :( ) I always breastfeed I don't pump and do bottle only because I never have to. but I'm unsure about how many ounces to give to her for him I have a lot stored but I don't want it all to be wasted because he doesn't finish them. it takes him a bit to even finish two ounces. Can anyone help me??
@wiccanmommy, he eats food also should I give her a little less milk so she feeds him the food? i feel like she'll go straight to the milk. we dont have a routine since I stay home all day I just feed him when I feel like he's hungry or is crying so I don't really know how to write it down for her
have it in 2 oz bags and give her a bunch.. have her keep them frozen until needed and you won't waste a bunch.
@indigenousmommy, yes he takes bottle ok he usually just plays around with it but will eat if he's hungry. after trying many different kinds I found this weird band he loves it.
I'd say it's safe to give her at least 12 ounces. If it's only going to be 8 hours.
Has baby been introduced to bottle successfully?
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.
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...
I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Due date
How likely are you to actually give birth on your due date, especially with your first kid? I don't want him to come on his exact due date because I don't want him to share a birthday with a certain someone.
I would have a conversation with her.. send food too, but make sure there is enough milk because he may choose a different schedule with you gone. he may eat or drink more or less. maybe if she can hang out with you for a day before hand and do all the feedings with you around so you can help her decern the cues you normally see?
