I know newborns are sleepy a lot and my baby is only 3 days old but I have a hard time keeping her awake for longer than 5 minutes on each boob. She latches and she drinks but she passes out so quick then doesn't want to wake back up. So I'm having a hard time with her weight and everything. It's stressful.
Congratulations on your new born woman! First time breastfeeding is one of the most stressful and beneficial things to do but if it's provided make sure you go to the breastfeeding consultant. Also know that these things take time. You can do it!
I strip her down every time just to have the skin to skin. She's almost always naked because yes clothes make her even more comfortable. But I'm gonna stick with it and feed her on demand and do everything I can. I won't give up
@alyssa5792 I've tried switching boobs, lifting her and talking to her, nudging her body and face with my fingers, tickling her spine, cold water on the bottom of her feet. She whines and goes back to sleep or just wiggles and goes back to sleep. Milk as in the yellow stuff? Like stuff squirts out of my nipple especially when I pump and it's white yellow and when I squeeze my nipples I can get good droplets of milk at the time to help her latch on. She just goes to sleep quick. Doctors say she will lose weight the first week but after 2 weeks she needs to be back at 8 pounds. I'm trying not to freak out and be patient and calm and pump and keep good skin to skin. I skin to skin every time I feed her.
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...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
