Period starting today + horrible sleep + cluster feeding almost-1 year old with 8 teeth = serious case of breastfeeding agitation 😣😠😩

Seriously though she's driving me a bit mad today...I really love that we have made it this far and I love breastfeeding usually but today is not the day.....*sigh* 😤😥

Lord please give me patience to be a better mother and not snap and be a jerk to anyone...🙏

Thanks so much @lizzib00 , I am sure you will make it as far as you and baby want! I'm not gonna lie it's not easy especially on days like this but I still appreciate that we made it this far and hope to allow her to self wean! Thanks agaim for the encouragement and congrats on your lil one, you are doing great too! The beginning is some of the most difficult times in breastfeeding and if you can get past the first few weeks then you got this 😉

Yes ma'am they are tough...my girl is turning 1 year old this month on the 24th and she is back to nursing like your 3 week old lol I can't blame her, she is going through a new developmental leap and also is recovering from her first illness, an ear infection...so booby is the perfect fix-all, but man-o-man today is just not the day for me! @lizzib00

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?

#mombassadorchat Happy World Breastfeeding Week! Please share your breastfeeding stories and tips! Hi everyone! @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom here. For today's chat we're going to talk about breastfeeding and pumping in honor of World Breastfeeding Week! Both can seem complicated or stressful, but remember you have lots of support here! With my first son I had things going against us for breastfeeding. I wish I knew back when he was younger that we could have still tried! With my second son I was determined to breastfeed, and even though he was born 11 weeks early I wasn't going to let that stop us from trying to breastfeed! For 7 weeks I pumped every 2 1/2-3 hours on the dot to establish and maintain my milk supply. When your little one is born early they usually need time to master sucking, swallowing, and breathing so I wasn't able to nurse right away. When my son was 33 weeks gestational (so 4 weeks old) we were finally able to latch on, and he did great! By 36 weeks gestational we had successfully started breastfeeding, and today marks 21 months of actual at-breast breastfeeding for us! I am passionate in trying to help moms-to-be and moms with breastfeeding and/or pumping, but I support moms who choose not to or for other reasons cannot breastfeed. Remember, I mentioned I didn't breastfeed my first son. I understand both sides. Breastfeeding isn't always easy, but I believe it's at least worth trying! Please help me celebrate World Breastfeeding Week by sharing your tips, questions, concerns, product recommendations, or anything else breastfeeding and pumping related!
