The caffeine content of a redbull isn’t really anymore than what’s in a coffee. I drank coffee while breastfeeding but always stopped at just 1 cup when my son was ebf before solid food introduction.

So by that logic I feel like one Red Bull is fine

Also I’m only talking about caffeine content since I am not really aware of the safety of all the other Red Bull ingredients.

I avoided all energy drinks when I was pregnant tbh
Only allowed myself a small coffee every now and then

I have an energy drink once a week and baby hasn't reacted

I feel like I need to drink one to get it out my system. I’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding for the past 2 years( 2 under 2) 😭😭😭

If youre worried but really want one why dont you have a look for an energy drink thats not got a load of random additives and synthetics to see if it helps your craving? My brother drinks Pussy energy drinks and ive had the odd one on the rare occasion (if hes willing to share 😂), but they're all natural ingredients and its about the same ammount of caffine as a coffee (give or take depending on the coffee) but tbh i cant see the odd redbull doing anything

you’re allowed up to 300mg of caffeine daily with breastfeeding, it’s just the other ingredients in red bull i’d be worried about lol i still drank celsius though so im sure that’s the same

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

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 🙂

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.

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?
