Peach mango and cherry lime are my favs!! I don’t think it’s doing anything as far as my milk supply goes but it makes staying hydrated 100x easier. I get so tired of plain water so I mix a bottle of water with a bottle of body armor and I chug it all day long lol

Omg I like peach mango too but it’s low calorie and I like to have the calories . Also that’s crazy I feel like it’s helped my supply so much you should see my freezer rn😩

well hey, you go girl! I’m glad it’s working for you. Yeah maybe I don’t notice a difference because I’m drinking the peach mango lytes. I just don’t like all the added sugars so that’s why I opt for those. I do need extra calories though. My appetite is just not the same anymore lol! I ate everything and anything when I was pregnant. Now I’m lucky if I get three full meals a day…and I barely snack anymore! 😩

Ohhhhhh so that's what body armor is 😅 I've heard about it but I thought it was a lactation drink🤦🏽‍♀️ thank youuuu I will be looking for it and those flavors lol

yesss it helps alot because it has coconut water

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.

Bedtime routine

I have a 12 week old and we struggle to get him to sleep in his next to me crib or Moses basket, so he sleeps in bed with us which means we’re struggling to have a bedtime routine as he won’t sleep till i go to bed with him.
Any suggestions please as he doesn’t sleep till around 11/12
