Gave birth to my first born a week and a half ago and honestly it's been a roller coaster ride. On top of me and hubby adjusting to baby being awake every night and sleep deprived, I myself is still recovering postpartum from a rough delivery (had placenta manually taken out and been anemic since then), getting used to the pain when baby latches the wrong way when breastfeeding, dealing with the side effects of medications I have to take postpartum and not having enough energy at this time to help out hubby when he's getting tired. I know this will pass but hope I can recover faster so I can take better care for my son. This sucks😳

Hang in there mama. I promise it gets better. I was in your shoes just two weeks ago and it's already better. You'll figure out what works for you and how to get the baby to not be fussy faster and your body will heal even though it feels like you got hit by a bus. Hang in there and just remember to breathe and look at your sweet baby's face and remember it's all worth it 💕💕💕 the breastfeeding gets easier too, try googling images of latching techniques cause it makes a difference to see how it's supposed to look. Also if you can invest in "Earth mama angel baby natural nipple butter" this stuff has saved my nipples. I was using lanolin for the first week and it was nasty smelling and sticky and gross and just didn't work for me but this stuff is amazing. I use it before and after breastfeeding(it's safe for baby) and it has healed my nipples and protected them too. Just hang in there Hun 💕
I know Drs recommend not taking baby out until 2 month shots but I have been asking my mom to watch my baby when I have to run an errand. But I feel uncomfortable now asking, I know it’s not her responsibility but I feel safer not taking baby. Will have to take baby from now on though because I can tell she is getting fed up. And I only ask her like once or twice a week...
I'm so nervous I have to go to the DMV tomorrow to take my written exam and im scared I won't pass it. I have court on Wednesday for not having a driver's license and I know the judge is going to get on my ass for not having my DL. I've just been so stressed out. After the written test when can I go for the driving test?
Walking blocks & malls when I hit 36 weeks 😅 i rather walk her out than have to get induced 🤦🏾♀️ so hopefully I can get her out before my induction date 👏🏾
I miss my belly ring 😢😢 boyfriend made me take it out when we found out I was pregnant.
Once I have the baby, when will I be able to get it repierced? Anyone know?
any advice for Thursday? I've been drinking lots of water so I can get a clear picture but is it smart to drink a soda before to get baby moving or do they get better measurements when baby is still?
Have you tried a nipple shield? I know that's only one of the problems you're having, but every little bit can make a difference. I used a nipple shield off & on for the first few months because my son had trouble latching & it was a life saver!
