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.

And also yes make sure you are hydrated especially since it's starting to feel like summer push the electrolytes

@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

Fenugreek can help too!

You may need to use warm compresses and massage them to help the milk ducts burst

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday…

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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

Who else has financial issues within their relationship?? Or am I just lucky 🙄🙄

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, tonight he asked for $20 incase his boss didn't give it to him. So I gave him my card not even thinking because I had kids running around me. I asked if he could pick up a few things that were out of and told him he could use my card if he has too. And I even told him not to get the expensive brands or anything m generic is fine. So he does. But when he does he decides to go Easter shopping for the kids. (Not sure if he used to my card or not) but if he did, I'd be even more pissed. He knows I have bills to pay on top of giving my son's school money that I owe them. He goes to a private school and I haven't paid in 5 months. It's towards the end of school now so I need to pay it. He knows this month I am extremely tight because of the school, im already in debt and my credit score sucks. I have been trying not to get in more debt and actually fix my credit. I'm so frustrated. It's like we have different priorities and different ideas on this. I feel like I'm completely drowning!!

At What Age Should a Child Make Their Own Breakfast?

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.
