Progesterone withdrawals

Hiiii - I’m 9w and I couldn’t wait to get off the progesterone shots and give my butt a break… but alongside crippling anxiety I had HUGE symptoms, more fatigue cramping than ever before (adding to the anxiety) and flares of both conditions I have Endometriosis & Fibromyalgia.
When did you stop, did your medical team taper and any experience with chronic pain / pregnancy? Feeling very alone 🙏🏼💕

All I recall is that I had some bleeding occur after stopping and it made me nervous but it was light and the pregnancy continued to fill term. I don't recall any tapering. I hope they can reassure you somehow! Those drugs are no fun. Of all the shots, the progesterone in oil was by far the worst!!!

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? 🥲

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

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 🥰

How many words

Just a quick gauge of how many words your little ones are saying at this age. I heard by 15 months it should be 5 words, are most around this mark ?
