Breastfeeding mommas! Help! Never had this issue with my first. My son is 5 days old, he had a tounge tie but we got it clipped. His latch was okay when he was born and he’s gaining a lot right now so I figured it’s just normal pains that would subside.
Well when he did an early appointment Friday they were worried my milk hadn’t come in yet (he was two days old) and didn’t want his jaundice to go up over the weekend so a different pediatrician suggested I pump and feed him formula. Looking back I shouldn’t have done it but I’m pretty sure it’s what caused this. I pumped for about two sets of twenty minutes and realized he was barely 3 days old and my milk came in that afternoon so I stopped.
Soooo if you’ve made it through all this HELP! I’m in so much pain when I nurse on one side.. the other one hurts but not as intensely like the left. It hurts also when I’m not nursing and just constantly leaks.
I have an appointment with a lactation consultant tomorrow so I’m just looking for help in the meantime!
Sounds like you might have a clogged duct or maybe you’re just engorged because your milk just came in. Do you have a sore lump that doesn’t feel like it gets drained when baby nurses? If so, then that’s a clog. Massage it in the shower and hand express milk out. It’s normal to be engorged for the first several weeks but if it’s a clog then you’ll want to clear it ASAP.
I would massage and put hot rag on my boobs and hand pump to help ease the pain
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.
Thanks.. no fever and I was thinking it might just be engorgement.. I don’t feel lumps and the soreness is just all over the breast
