I struggled to breast feed my first daughter and she is more attached to my husband because she had to go to the NICU right after she was born and i wasn't allowed to go. With my second, she latched on quickly and i am bonding more with her. I feel closer to my youngest than my oldest. And it makes me feel bad. I feel like my oldest doesn't need me and seeks out her father more than me 🙁

I am having an easier time breastfeeding my second daughter. I am pumping after feeding, drinking a lot of water, eating right and taking milk thistle pills. What else dis you moms take to make your milk flow? Thank you!

Addy was born May 21st at 11:24pm. After three and a half days of laboring, I was barely 3 cm dialated when the doc broke my water. After that the contractions got so bad and came so close together. I was really trying to hold on to sanity and continue without the epidural. My husband was trying to help me through the pain. But he could barely touch me, my tummy, or my back. It made the pain feel so much worse. And he kept telling me it was okay to get the epidural. I struggled with my decision ...

I'm at the hospital being induced. I was 3 cm when I came in Friday morning. They started pitocin but I didn't dialate much more. I had a dose of cervidil put in but still not a lot happened. I'm back on pitocin, and even though it shows that I am getting consistent contractions, they don't hurt as bad as they did with cervidil...

Too excited and scared to sleep. I'm being induced later today
😶😫

Just got the okay to be induced next Tuesday. I'm beyond excited because I can't wait to hold my baby girl. But not too excited because being induced is painful as hell. Getting the cervidil and pitocin was not fun and dread doing that again. I need to find a way to induce naturally, any one have ideas how???

I'm considering leaving. I feel alone all the time. I rather then actually be alone with my girls. I'm always being accused of infidelity, but he's the one hiding things from me. We no longer talk about the future. And when he's home, he's just here, physically but not mentally. Talking to everyone else but me. It's just not the same anymore.

I'm having a "sad episode", like my hubby likes to call them. Just feeling sad and alone in this apartment. Hubby is off at work until late tonight and my mom is busy doing i don't know what. That's it. That's all the people i have here...that makes me even more sad.

What are some ways you guys tried to induce labor that were successful? I am going to be induced at 37 weeks again for cholestasis, and i was hoping to try some stuff before going to the hospital and getting petocin and cervidil. Being induced with those meds was extremely painful. Hoping to make it happen in a more natural way. Thanks!

Is there anything i can take to help me sleep? I haven't been able to sleep much in the past week. I'm so tired, but my body just won't slow down. I'm ready for this baby to come.
