Sagging boobs 🫣

I've always had quite perky boobs but after 2 kids they're sagging and the underboob crease keeps getting sweaty and uncomfortable 😭

Can anyone recommend any bras/products/tips that might help feel more comfortable (aside from a surgical lift)

I'm not breastfeeding and I hope they'll shrink a bit as I lose weight, but I don't think that will help the sagging!

Feels like I could’ve written this 😂 Sadly I don’t have any great advice for you, but you’re not alone. After baby number 2 in March I’m starting to see why so many mums have boob jobs or ‘Mummy Makeover’ surgeries 😩
Look at some exercises that lift the breast muscle, that’s what I’m gonna try for now x

🥲 me too! It’s not even a vanity thing, just comfort! I’ve never really worn proper bras either, I used to always wear triangle styles so now I’m dreading having to wear uncomfortable underwire 😭 my friend with tiny boobs said hers somehow still sag too 😭😂

Avoid underwire bras. That makes it worse.

My boobs are very soft now after my newborn and I'm confused cause aren't they suppose to be more firm cause of the milk lol

I had my first 2 kids at ages 19/20, and it destroyed my body. Its mostly genes. Look at your mom/grandma if you want an idea of how your body may look when you're older. Some women's bodies bounce back, some don't. Eating well and exercise can help.

The abrathatfits subreddit can teach you how to measure yourself properly for a bra.

Lume has been LIFE CHANGING for under boob sweat and chafing between my legs. Highly suggest.
Their body wash is also amazing

I’ll be honest, my boobs are saggy as ffffffff! I was fat as a kid then lost a lot of weight in my early 20s. And I’m really sorry to say this but every possible “solution” out there I’ve tried and guess what …. they’re still heading south. I’ve already started putting money away for surgery once I’m done having kids. By all means, try anything you hear/read about, just as someone who’s probably tried it all; please don’t spend too much money on them. Surgery really is the only way to “undo” sagginess

Yeah... I've always had small, kinda perky boobs (bigger now with the weight) and they've still gone south!! 😔
They were a bit harder initially with the milk but now gone really soft and saggy!!

Yeah it’s not very comfortable is it, plus tops that used to feel comfy now feel oddly shaped, having to wear baggier clothes to accommodate belly button tits 😂
It’s not gonna solve the problem fully, but if you’re in the UK and looking for a cute bra, I’ve just bought a really nice white lace nursing bra from Ann Summers on Amazon x

Showering with my baby? Is it unsafe/ wrong?

Is it weird to take a shower with my baby boy? Is it a bad thing? I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately because I can never shower I’m 11 weeks pp and my husband started a new job. He is gone all day to work and I can’t just leave my baby alone so I can shower. I can’t hear the monitor over the running water and even if he is sleeping if I leave the room he wakes up and starts crying and doesn’t stop unless I pick him up and if I put him down again he cries again and I’m against letting my baby just cry it out. So I’ve been neglecting my own self care and hygiene and it’s really taking a toll on my mental health. So I guess what I’m really wondering is it wrong, and is it unsafe?

Getting out of the house

Please tell me I’m not the only one who finds it near impossible to get out of the house with my LO 😓 She’s 4.5 months and I’ve barely gone outside since giving birth. Where I live it’s still super cold and the 3 times I attempted an outdoor walk with her she started crying after 10 minutes…
She won’t nap or nurse on the go anymore and still nurses every 1.5-2 hours. Up until 4 months her cluster feeding was so frequent I couldn’t go anywhere because of that. I’m completely house bound and going crazy. I feel like every other new mom I see on my social media is out to restaurants, Pilates classes, vacations, etc with their babies and for some reason I’m the only one who can’t handle it. Tell me this gets easier 😭

Edit: *it’s not because I worry about OTHER people with my baby’s crying- her crying stresses ME out especially because I know I’m depriving her of food or sleep because I went further than 30 minutes from our house and she won’t nurse or nap until we get home. It just feels like too much hassle and stress to bother.

Am I over reacting?

MIL came over on sunday to help with childcare, I'm heavily pregnant so she said why don't you go for a nap while I'm here.
I had a 2 hr nap upstairs and during that time she fell asleep on the sofa for 1.5 hrs. I know because we have security cameras round the house which i looked at later on after she'd gone.
My daughter slept for 30 mins on her, on the arm of the sofa and then the rest of the time she was left with the TV on.
I'm really annoyed because we have a wooden floor, a coffee table that she tries to climb on, she had hair ties which she often pulls out and tries to chew therefore a choking risk.
She's 20 months old.
Am I over reacting?
The worst thing is when I came downstairs after my nap, she 'she's not had much sleep only about 10 minutes'. But idk how she'd know that because my daughter woke up ages before she did.

Bedtime

Hi mamas. I let my baby watch kids videos for bedtime until he gets asleep. Am I a worse mum??

Poo Help Needed 😱

My baby is approaching 6 months and is exclusively breastfed. A midwife warned us to expect that by this point, he would be pooing once a week and would make a big song and dance about it.

My baby poos once or twice a day, sometimes three times, without fail. Probably one in three is very vinegary, and they are in general smelly - I can tell he's pooed on smell alone.

They are also fairly explosive. He's in a larger size nappy than his weight to try and contain the poo as we have frequent blowouts! He also generally only poos in his car seat unless it's first thing in the morning!

Other than pooping, he seems completely healthy. He has maintained appropriate weight gain at his last check (which admittedly was at 3 months), but he's chubby and round. He also has plenty of wet nappies. I'd love to hear from people as to whether this is normal or whether I should be worried that this is an allergy or something!!!

How many poos does your EBF baby do a day / week? Please let me know!!!

Painful bowel movements

Hi all,

My 11 month old has incredibly painful bowel movements, it looks as though her poo is so large (wide) that its agony to get out so she screams. Once the first part is out (usually with some help) the rest comes out fine.

The GP has given her laxatives but this has been going on for months and she can't take them everyday so I try to limit them.

Anyone else have this? She has CMPA but does have anything with cows milk so it's not that.

Thanks x
