Milk supply

Is it possible for just one boob to have the supple dry up? My shitty titty is just getting more shitty lol

Commenting cuz I wonder too. Love the term shitty titty😂 slack boob seems to get less and less. I know it can be a vicious cycle when pumping

You pump less or don't or can't fully drain therefore you send signals to slow production

Then you end up getting less. And loop until yeah.. I try to get multiple letdowns and he patient. I was getting 6 Oz from right in the morning, down to 3 or 4. 3 is a struggle, 4 I gotta work for it.

Adding another comment. This pumping session I'm referring to is after my long sleep of 7 to 8 hours. Left brrast is steady at 6 Oz the entire time I've been doing it. It produces and let's down so easily

My right I get like 5 each pump. But my left? I'm lucky if I get 2 lol

@Kaity don't give up on the shitty titty! Lol offer it more often if nursing and maybe give it one extra pump and or try for more letdowns. My right side let's down slower and it lasts longer and takes longer

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7

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 🙂

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!

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.
