thinking about just giving up breastfeeding.. he breastfeeds and does formula. but my supply seems to be coming in less and less to me because I don't have time throughout the day to pump. he never seems to get full when I do breastfeed him I always have to give him a bottle afterwards.
@annasmomma12, so like after I feed him feel and see if I feel any lumps? or will it feel lumpy even before I feed him?
Yea I had to massage mine a lot cuz for some reason I was still lumpy and had more milk even after I pumped
@annasmomma12, I have no clue I've never knew you needed to make sure they were open or whatever 😅 @babyjjsmommy a lot of it could deal with me not being hydrated I was dehydrated a lot while pregnant too for some reason I just don't drink enough at all
And when you are pumping how long are you doing it and how frequently?
Make sure you are drinking at least 8-10 glasses of water a day. Staying hydrated is the main thing. There are several lactation smoothie recipes/ lactation cookie recipes that you can make as well. I can send you some or you can search " lactation smoothie" or "lactation cookies" on Pinterest and there are a ton of recipes that'll pop up. Eat oatmeal every single morning. I do instant but the kind you actually have to cook apparently work better. Also they have teas specifically for breastfeeding mothers, and fenugreek pills seem to work best for most people!
Mothers milk tea is really good from what I've heard. I'm gonna try it when I have my baby. I didn't do anything like that with my first daughter and stopped producing like 6 weeks after I had her
You may need to use warm compresses and massage them to help the milk ducts burst
@meboom01, no I didn't know they had any all people told me was to pump more.
Have you tried any kind of supplements? Or even lactation cookies or milk water tea?
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...
Who else has financial issues within their relationship?? Or am I just lucky 🙄🙄
Not sure if I'm being just mean or what. But my SO used $160 from me this morning. I gave him my bank card because he needed $60 to get material for work. His boss was going to give it back to him at the end of the day. So instead of $60 he took out $160. Which I was a little pissed. (One of the reasons I just can't let him use my card. I have to go get the money from the atm myself if I'm giving it to him) then, to...
Make your own breakfast!
At what age do you think a child should be making their own breakfast? I have a 10 year old and I think he is perfectly capable of making himself breakfast. It doesn't take rocket science to put some waffles into the toaster, or microwave some pancakes. My husband insists that he needs to have breakfast made for him because if we left it up to him he wouldn't eat enough and it would take him forever.
I need help!!! Something is wrong with my dog and I have no money or job to take him to the vet. I think hes dying idk
So I have a question.. Would you ladies give your SO a second chance of he cheated on you?. But he came to you and told you instead of having to catch him redhanded and was truthful about EVERYTHING.
And also yes make sure you are hydrated especially since it's starting to feel like summer push the electrolytes
