Thank you and I sure will inbox you with some questions some time tomorrow
@jasminsmith782 ok I'm a Postpartum Doula as well. I'm here to help 🥰
Keep at it, try to relax, stressing and blaming isnt going to help you with milk production and baby will sense it as well. You're doing great, and I'm sure everything will be fine. 🙂
It’s normal for them
To lose weight my babies always lost weight by the time it was time to go home and at our 1st visit still was under they birth weight it happens. It has nothing to do with breast milk nor formula so don’t pay him
Any mind that’s soo uneducated and insensitive of him to say something as such . Just keep feeding your baby mommas . My daughter was born 6 pounds went home 5 pounds and to this day and
She’s 1 now I hear she’s under weight !! But guess what she’s been sitting by herself since 4 months crawling since 6 and she’s been walking since 9 months !! She also
Just turned 1 and she can point out her body parts when asked . She’s doing way more than what she supposed and always been that way so so what if a baby is under weight long as they healthy and accomplishing what they’re supposed to is all that really matters love ❤️❤️
It’s normal for them to lose a little weight after birth.
My son had to go to weight checks for two weeks. Feeding is new to babies and sometimes it takes them a bit longer. Absolutely do NOT let anyone blame yourself!! If your dr isn’t worried, just follow their directions. I fed my son every 2 hours, even at night. He didn’t eat a ton every time but it was more of a slow and steady type of situation. You can do it! Your baby is a whole new person. It takes a little bit to get to know one another.
My baby girl does not let me do anything all day 😭 I'm lucky if everything is done before my s.o gets home , she cried so I pick her up to feed her and change her diaper and once she's on my breast she eats and I burp her put her down and she'll cry I get her again and she's on my breast not even latched on just smelling my boobs 😭 I'm like girl really lmao she wants me to carry her or be with her all day , girl I wish I could lmao
So I'm trying to order my breast pump though my insurance but I'm not due until December do I have to wait to order it??
I was going to do strictly breastfeeding but I'm going to actually do breastfeeding and pumping (bottle) because if not than she'll be hooked and will want my breast only and wouldn't work if she is left with her dad or something lol..
Anyone else doing both???
IF WHEN I HAVE MY BABY I DONT WANT MY BD OR HIS FAMILY TO EVER C HER WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO???
my baby daddy's ex wife works at the hospital I'm having my daughter she is just a cleaning lady she tell me they let her move the babies around I'm scared this women will take my baby she even tells me if I have my baby early she could see her ever day .. my doctor only delivers at this hospital I don't know what to do . this is why I don't want to have my baby early ..
