So my son WILL NOT take formula. Not in a bottle, not mixed in cereal, not any way at all. He just wants mama. That's it. And I'm totally fine and happy with that! He knows the difference and I KNOW I make more than enough for him. So until the day comes that I dont? His doctor can kiss my ass. Far as I'm concerned he is growing JUST fine. Those growth charts can also kiss my ass. #perfectbaby #breastfed
Wow...I don't blame you for not giving it, I'd do the same. You know your baby so go with your gut, and the fact that the LC and nutritionist said he's fine would give me all the reassurance I need. Sucks about your dr if that's true, healthcare is so political these days
@bianca_rose, yes. His doctor said that he " had completely fallen off the growth curve, even for a preemie" and because of that he said that I should begin giving him formula as a supplement after every breastfeeding. Well I can't quite do that if he doesn't want to take it! The LC I spoke with at WIC and also a nutritionist at WIC told me that he is perfectly fine and that he's in the 10th percentile for weight and he's really doing great with his height. So they think that the doctor is just trying to get him on formula because he gets Kickbacks for it. That really upset me because I've been going to this doctor for 15 years with my kids and I've always trusted him. But the fact that he's trying to force formula on him really upsets me because I'm working so hard to maintain a good supply and make sure he gets as much breast milk as possible. I've been doing this since day one when he was born and was put into the NICU and I'm not about to just stop now because they want me to start feeding him formula!
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...
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, to...
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.
My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...
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?
I am honestly in complete shock rn . Me & my bf really just broke up . & the sad part is I'm the one who did the breaking up . I've never seen him so upset . What did I do ? Like I can't even cry . I have no emotion . To know that I just broke up with my boyfriend who I supposedly loved so much . Maybe I didn't love him . Or maybe I couldn't love him the way he needed to be loved. idk all I know is I got tired of being a pain in his ass . I think it's for the best ... He'll find someone who appr...
At our 2 month check up.....I wondered if the charts were separated for formula fed babies and BF babies.....It hasn't become an issue for us yet but I don't think it's fair for a baby if they aren't put into different categories. @mrs.mccormick
