Feeling a lil sad I weaned my baby from my nipple to a bottle and pacifier the other day but my baby was literally using me as a human pacifier alllllll the time lol I felt like a prisoner and she was my guard she wanted my nipple 24/7 and I couldn’t get anything done. My baby has been so much better since having a pacifier she seems way more calm and relaxed. Now I can get out the house and go back to work I’m happy about that but I just hope my baby doesn’t feel like I’m neglecting her of my nipple 😪 I feel like it was the best thing to do for both of us I felt like I was getting a little depressed I loved breastfeeding my baby but being a human pacifier was a bit much I have been giving her my milk in her bottles since I have a lot stashed in the freezer but now I’m becoming super engorged and in so much pain because I only pump once a day what can I do to help dry my milk up fast?
@monavidaaxo, ok thanks 😊 so I shouldn’t even pump once today since my boobs are sooo full? They are rock hard and so huge I just want this milk out
Leave soap on your nipples that helped by sis in law...

So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that

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 ❤️
Will your Mom be in the delivery room?
My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.
What would you do? - baby shower
SO my mom has been very negative about the baby my entire pregnancy. Especially in the beginning, she said the most HORRIBLE things about me, my DH and my unborn baby. Like that I was making a big mistake, that I was making her 2015 the worst year ever... etc etc. Even when she would do nice things she made me feel like I was a HUGE inconvenience and a burden to her. She told me to definitely NOT expect a shower or anything like that from her. Fine, whatever...

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
Awww I’m sorry to hear you quit so soon! My daughter was the same way, she wanted to be latched constantly and if she wasn’t then she was crying. It was so hard but I pushed through anyway and I’m so glad I did. She ended up nursing until she was 2.5 😊 It gets so much easier after the first 4 months. It’s such a short time in your baby’s whole life and you can “get things done” when they’re older. Now she’s 4 and I miss it so much. Luckily I’m still nursing my 7 month old and I don’t plan to stop any time soon.
As for the pumping I suggest doing a gradual weaning, so continue to pump once a day until you notice a drop in supply. It shouldn’t take long.
