I never understood postpartum depression before I had the baby. I always thought...you just had a baby why so sad?? But now?? This shit is real.
I had my baby girl on Monday the 15th, took her home Tuesday night. My mom left Wednesday (she lives out of state) and won't be back until maybe Christmas. She was here for a few weeks and my baby was overdue, so she was only here for the first 2 days of her being born.
Anyway. I'm so stressed about breastfeeding. I have this feeling she's not eating enough from me. Only one bowel movement a day. She doesn't spit up. She's constantly hungry and I feel I'm not feeding her but I want to breastfeed her so bad.
All I've been doing today is cry. Breastfeed, cry, pump, cry. I feel so lonely and I don't know why. Seriously hope this feeling ends soon.

I was feeling the same exact way! My little man was born 3 weeks early and I was stressing about him gaining weight. I was trying so hard to breastfeed but it wasn't working and it stresses me out lots. I've decided to exclusively pump because now I know how much he is getting. I still wish I could just breastfeed because I miss that bonding time with him but I do lots of skin to skin to make up for it. Every night the first week of his life I would just cry while holding him because I wanted to be the best momma for him. I think it's a normal feeling though! He's 2 in a half weeks old now and I'm finally getting the hang of everything.
ebf babies will feed often, breast milk is easily digested
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.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
if you have to stop for your happiness do so and go to formula
