i had planned on staying home with my baby till she was two but an old boss called me and made me an offer I can't refuse. so here's my questionI/problem: I don't want our bf journey to end, I plan on nursing during the day and trying to pump bottles for my husband to feed her at night but I'm scared my supply will drop or a pumping schedule will just be too much. with the type of job it is I'll only be guaranteed a 30min break and even then it may be hard to pump. how can I keep up my supply and any pumping advice because at night I barely get 1oz out.
do those work pretty well? I'll be looking for them next time I go shopping @littlemissrainesmommy
lol natural Valley has these soft baked oatmeal bars in different flavors that you could try lol definitely better than just plain old oatmeal!! lol
@littlemissrainesmommy, I'll be working at an adolescent inpatient rehab so extra breaks aren't really feasible and if I push that issue they won't hire me. so I hope pumping before and after my shift and maybe in my 30 min break will be enough. thanks for the advice, looks like I'll be eating oatmeal for dinner a lot lol
and I've heard if you look at pictures of baby while pumping it helps, eat oatmeal, drink lots of water. maybe try taking fenugreek?? good luck mama!!
they have to legally give you pump breaks! other than your regular breaks!
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.
I've been eating them since before I had her and I've not had any kind of supply issues.. I pump once in the morning and usually get almost 4 oz! so I'm guessing lol and I've noticed when I drink more water and Gatorade I make more too!
