Anyone got any tips for breastfeeding.. it's only the 3rd night and it hurts.. am I doing something wrong.. thought I was following everything I've read and been told to do.
@liligandypants Awe hun...I cried too! I even got panicked about the next feed because I knew it would hurt. But I kept on at it...with the cream. Make sure bubs mouth is open wide and bring bubs mouth quickly to the breast. Brush the top of the lip/nose to encourage bubs to open wide Xx
I saw her this morning and thought everything was ok so didn't ask her to show me again but now I've just cried while feeding n feel like im failing
@liligandypants Yeah..rub it between your fingers to warm it up and then it will become oily :) For some women it does hurt hun...even if its done right...But it could be that bubs has a tongue tie. When you next see your midwife get her to check your latch and your bubba for a tongue tie. They have places where you can drop in for breast feeding advice etc xxx
I've tried applying that loads.. I've read coconut oil so done that.. now trying a warm compress
I've got lanisoh but it's like waxy stuff.. is this the right stuff
Apply the Lanolin inbetween feeds :) You can put on as much as you like and you dont have to wash it off before a feed. Apply it again straight after..and as often as you like before the next feed. Rub some all around the nipple and apply some to the breast pad. I recommend Lansioh breast pads :) Xx
On the 3rd day it was sore for me...I just used Lanolin cream for 2 days and it went :) If you haven't been discharged from your midwives care. Please ask her if the latch is correct xx
It will hurt but should only be on the first latch it does get better very quickly and then your don't feel any pain I bf all mine apart from my little girl now but only because I am on tablets that would effect her eyes so Kiki is bottle fed but I wish I was bf her it's amazing especially after the first week keep at it I'm sure your doing great Hun xx
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...
ladies I do believe we have a fake 😒
