I've been practicing ecological breastfeeding. For the last 7 months my son has been EBF he has never used a pacifier, he hasn't had any liquids except breastmilk, he hasn't had solids except a few tastes of vegetables after he turned 6mo, and he has slept with us in our bed... until 3 nights ago. Despite sleeping in his crib he still wakes every 3-4 hours to nurse, though. Most North American women who practice ecological breastfeeding get their period back between 14-15 months postpartum, yet mine decided to show up today. I feel slighted. Maybe it's the PMS, but I'm actually angry at my body 😡

@txyogagirl, he usually sleeps in his crib for about 4-5 hours and then I bring him in our bed, so I still get plenty of baby snuggles but I also get a few hours of more restful sleep. I was sleeping so lightly because I was worried about him, so it's actually turned out to be pretty ideal!
@ciraclesmiracle, adorable pic I bet u miss him when he is n his crib. Well Luke is 5m now and still no period.
@asianae16, oh man! And so soon after your postpartum bleeding finished! Our bodies can be real jerks sometimes.
I ebf also and I got my period at a little before I was one month postpartum. I had a couple days before my 6 week check up
@kambam, ugh!!! Stupid body! Thank goodness I had some 2015-era tampons laying around
you don't even know... Ebf, no paci, etc and got mine at 3.5m pp. I was a little mad but what can ya do 😔
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...

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
That's awesome @ciraclesmiracle,
