Trying really hard 😰 I am pumping every 3 hours for 25 minutes at a time and I'm not making enough. My LO is still in the NICU and they have him on continual feeding through a tube of my milk but he's a big boy he's getting a lot and I just can't keep up! So they are supplementing him with formula. My milk supply has actually decreased in the past few days. I normally get about 2oz and now I'm lucky if I get 1....
Eating healthy food and oatmeal with lots of water helps
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...
Ugh my boyfriend makes me so mad 😡😡😡😡. After I cooked dinner for him. He gets home takes one bite and he's like "i don't like it I'm not eating" like wtf really
herpes..
I'm soo sad. I've been with my husband 6 years next month. Him and SS get cold sores I thought I would never get them. Blahhh my lip is soo swollen it hurts and its soo damm itchy. I hate it I hate it. My husband just got one 3 weeks ago I didn't kiss him or share cups. :(
I've been supplementing some with formula because my baby boy just demands more than what I'm putting out and he seems happier with the formula..my breast milk doesn't seem to satisfy him enough and it seems like he's always hungry unless I give him formula..should I switch to formula only? I thought breast milk was supposed to be best but in his case I'm not so sure ugh idk what to do I just want him to be happy
It's Time
Well I decided it's time to start the weaning process. I'm a gentle parent so after lots of considering I decided the best option was to try and dry up my milk while explaining to my son that babas are going away and won't make milk much longer. I'm having peppermint altoids every hour and drinking lots of sage and parsley tea. I'm still letting him nurse but just reminding him that soon the milk will be gone. I think he's beginning to understand and it could still be awhile befor...
You are doing the best you can mamma! Try not to stress about it too much! I know it's hard but That will effect your milk.
