Little concerned. . My 1 week 3 day old baby is only eating 5 min on each breast at a time. if I feed him anymore he likes it up. please tell me if this is normal. my first son never really took to the breast and so this is new. He is still gaining weight from last Friday to this Wednesday he has gained 4 oz. plz advice. .
Is your milk flow really good. He may just be getting enough in those 5 min to satisfy him. No worries
I was so worried because my little guy wouldn't latch and when he did he would hardly feed! As long as there is weight gain my pediatrician said that whatever I'm doing I'm doing a good job at it! You're doing great!
@carolynrose, whew I'm glad cuz I'm being told he should be eating 15 min or longer. before my milk came in he was eating 30 minutes to 45 minutes if not longer but since my milk has come in he drinks less and less and 5 min each is what I've learned he can manage
My daughter was & still is the same way. As long as he continues to gain weight it's not a problem!
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 ❤️
@egaylep2, Yes apparently it flows really well. . maybe TMI lol but I was trying to feed him this morning and bearly applying pressure and a straight line stream and I couldn't get it to stop until I just dropped it
