Are you breastfeeding? Because that can delay a period

yes im fully breast feeding . Can that make me not have one for this long though ?

yeah, some women don’t have one at all while breastfeeding. If it’s concerning you, reach out to your dr

ohh okaeey Thank Youu . I Didnt Know That Could Happen .

no problem! Most women think since breastfeeding can keep your period from coming that you can’t get pregnant, but you can still ovulate during that time so just be careful 🫶🏽

I’m 10 months pp and haven’t gotten my period yet. I’m exclusively breastfeeding as well

Same I didn’t get mine back until my son was 10 months and I’m breastfeeding I had two periods and now I’m pregnant again!!! So watch out what you do start back up cuz you are super fertile at that time like when you first delivered baby

Lol Thanks For The Warning 🤣🤣 Im Already Overwhelmed Enough

PSA: do your research. You are never “super fertile” you either have sex at the right time w/ovulation or do not lol

Your welcome mamma I definitely was not planning this one I have a 3 year old a 1 year on and now 11 weeks pregnant 😕👀🙏🏼

Oh Lordy 😨 I Guess Thats SomeThing I Probably Should Look Into For Suree !

you can always try and track your ovulation to see if you are or not 🤗 that’s the best way to do it if you don’t want to be put on BC. Because even though I have an unplanned pregnancy currently, imo there’s no such thing as an accident if you’re having unprotected sex. That’s what my dr told me 😂

Almost 8 months pp and no period ! Exclusively breastfeeding perks

Got mine back at 16months an was still breastfeeding

Mine came back about 14 months due to breastfeeding.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?
