is anybody using nipple shield? I started to use it in hospital and it's great my nipples are OK it's not sore. the only problem is that I can't manage to feed Sophie without nipple shield I can't manage to latch her properly I'm managing to do it on left breast but after 5 mins of feeding she's getting mad and don't want to eat unless I put nipple shield.
i havnt personally.. i helped my sister with this though. i also breast fed and currently breastfeeding.... 2 of my children had mild tonge tie... this was a little bit more difficult for them to latch on... but hold her really close to you... touch the end of her nose with your nipple and she should automatically move up to find it.. and make sure her chin is also touching your breast. If it lasts for 5 mins maybe shes dribbling and your nipples are wet preventing her from latching on... dry them, try again. Just keep trying.. even if its 1 feed a day you will get there. Maybe she screams until you put the sheild on as thats what shes used to and its a different feel and she knows she can get a good feed from that one..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...
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.
I have this same problem, I've been feeding my daughter with shields for 4 months xx
