Help!

Was slowly introducing organic whole milk to my son and he’s now had diarrhea for the past day. We use kendamil as a formula which has whole milk so I didn’t think it would be an issue. What do I do? Goats milk? No milk? Kind of freaking out that he’s lactose intolerant? Anyone experienced this before?

Ya mine had very acidic poop for 3 days. on the second day I realized it was the milk and stopped .maybe just do almond or something

So diarrhea for a day or two is somewhat normal because they’re tummy’s are getting adjusted. Milk can be irritating to stomach in general let alone a baby who trying it for the first time. We’re personally not doing cow’s milk, we’re doing cashew and almond milk and we haven’t had any issues. I’d give him another day and if he is still have diarrhea maybe look at alternative milk.

I’m glad I seen this post. We just started with an 1oz of whole milk this morning with our daughter. You could always reach out to the nurse at your pediatrician office and ask them a few questions about it and what to do if it continues.

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.
