New Mom, New You

I am 26+3 today. Have been experiencing diarrhoea since 2 days. Couldn’t keep anything down my stomach. Have to use the toilet after every meal. No vomiting. Is this normal? Baby’s movements are normal.

Postpartum moms, what’s the ONE biggest thing you wish you had more help with?

My baby Buddha pump was not efficient like it used to be. Since I booked a lactation consulting through them and the consultant watched the pump and asked me whether I wash and sterilize the pump each time i used it. Which was an YES. I used to wash all the parts and sterilize after each use. Hence the silicone diaphragm is not in good shape. What she recommended me was to pump and dump the pump in fridge with all the parts intact and use it the whole day without washing and just wash it once a day and let it air dry. Also just to sterilize once a week. I’m not used to this process , do you mommas agree with this ? I’m compelled to do so now. I need help please !

Hi everyone. I was just wondering if anyone has had the baby blues and found things that helped it. I feel very regretful as a single mother that doesn't have it all together and I feel like my baby doesn't know who his mother is. I just feel like another person to him. I feel very overwhelmed and anxious especially about the future. If anyone has some advice for me it would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

I’m having a really hard time with the transition to having a newborn with my toddler who is 21 months and the love of my life. It breaks my heart to see him feel sad not getting attention like he dad just a few days ago. Please send words of encouragement! 😭
