Just a mom who hates laundry 🥲

If anyone knows how to get stains out of clothes that’s already been dried please help a girl out.
I forgot new jeans will bleed in the wash and just stained a bunch of new clothes. I’ve also been pushing off folding laundry so now I’ve spent my entire morning folding and scrubbing clothes. I’m glad my girls look put together cause I sure am not 🫩

Dawn soap and baking soda, let it soak. It might not taking them completely out but it'll lighten it a bit.

Well are those pants made of poly or cotton? You need to know that. But in general getting blue dye out of white is extremely difficult

Try drying them in the sun. I’ve found that some stains disappear even after being washed and dried.

Ahh this happened to me too, I had accidentally put denim in from primark 🫣

That’s been color run it’ll be very very hard to remove that coz it’s not a stain per se just use them as play pants or daycare pants for now I don’t think you can save that. You can get packets of color run stuff and throw that in the wash next time and it’ll catch the color but thats to avoid it happening again. A couple weeks ago i threw my new red glitter dress in the wash and it got red glitter everywhere 😂 stains can be removed but not color run coz that’s from blue dye from the jeans. You can try above suggestions if you really wanna save the pants. For other stains though I pretreat it w a spray even before the wash and it comes out stain free (as a cloth mum who washed cloth diapers they didn’t stain)

Dawn power wash & hot water

Fill a sink with as warm water as the clothes can take and put a 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice and tablespoon dish soap in the water and soak overnight then scrub with dish soap the next morning and re wash as normal. This gets pretty much any and all stains out (dried and washed period blood and curry are my most recent and common stains in my house) if you have a food safe lemon or citrus essential oil that will work better than the juice most people don’t have food safe essential oil laying around the house.

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?

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.
