I am, my baby has just turned 10 months but her teeth have just started to come through 😭

Me 🙋🏻‍♀️ EBF since birth and he has 5 teeth and more coming through, I love it and it will be bittersweet to stop 🥹

I am too, she’s just turned 10 months. I would like her to take a bottle so I could do both but she refuses so just going with the flow!

Breastfeeding on demand, not planning to stop but starting daycare in a couple of weeks, will see how that disrupts it 🥲

My daughter will be 10 months on Monday and still breastfeeding. I’ve just dropped an afternoon feed and will start to gradually drop others over the next few weeks in preparation of her starting nursery in September 😭

Still breastfeeding and pumping while I'm at work as he has 2 bottles while I'm at work. Hes on 4 feeds a day at the moment but this depends on how much solid food hes had for how much and when he wants milk. He's a good eater so naturally reducing how much he has first thing and sometimes refuses his second feed. Nearly 10 months in and I still worry he's not getting enough 🤣. I have no plans to stop and think that when he turns 1 we will just replace his 2 day time feeds and leave the morning and night one

Still going at 10m! No plans to stop for a long while yet :)

Still EBF. Have never both pumping and didn’t bother with bottles. No point stopping now till she’s past a year xx

Still going here too at 10.5 months. no intent to stop until bub wants to (highly unlikely at present!). Still often fed to sleep which means I’m not worried about when I go back to work but will see how we go….

I am still breastfeeding my 10 month old but he keeps biting me so slowly reducing 😢

Avatar

Still breastfeeding and haven’t dropped any feeds, idk when we’ll ever stop 🥲 he only has two bottom teeth but will randomly bite very rarely

Avatar

Yep! Still breastfeeding!! I honestly considered stopping a few times because of the teething and biting but she normally bites when her teeth are about to cut and she mainly grazes. Every time she does it, we finish the session and do something else, which is hard when u feed to sleep like me. I had to persevere with a few tough naps and my husband does most of the nights. As long as she doesn't draw blood, i think ill keep going... Bfing is bloody brilliant and it still is the best thing to help her regulate

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Strange question

Hello. I would identify myself as asexual but yes i am married and i have a child. But now that ive had my baby. I think its solidified that im done having sex. I feel bad as my partner keeps asking me but i just dont want to. Any advice on what i can do? Any other asexual moms out there? I guess this could be confusing but im not huge on being bound by a label. I have just always felt it represented me best since highschool.
