Not a momma poll tattoo poll

I'm getting a tattoo under my boob. This is my first one where I may have to remove clothes. Do I wear a bra or not?

You could wear a nipple cover. Or like a bralette you can shift easily.

The artist or the shop will likely have nipple covers / pasties if you do have to take your clothes off for it to happen properly!

I’d say it’s whatever the artist says will be best, cause they know how they have to pull the skin to apply a tattoo that’ll look normal when you’re just chilling.

FREE THOSE BABIES 😄 please just kidding. Just some humor here. Hope your tattoo goes well(:

I’ve been for 2 appointments for similar tattoos, and both times I wore my bra and they just gave me opportunity to get changed and gave me nipple covers x

Triangle bikini top if you’re not comfortable freeing the boobs

As a girl with two under breast tattoos. No bra. But get nipple covers and definitely your gonna want a sports bra the fallowing two days

I had a tattoo same area and used a bralette that was stretchy they make sure to keep you still covered and mine was like okay are you comfortable I’m going to xyz area, like yes I’m good sir.

I had a tattoo high my my ribs at first i was gonna wear a bra but it kept slipping so i just took it off. Only nipples. The artist didnt care lol

I had to take mine off, we just covered them with some kitchen roll and taped it on 🤣

They should offer pasties if not bring some!

Wear a nipple cover? Like one of those sticky breast petal things

Traveling by car

FTM to a one month old and we want to travel to visit family so they can meet the baby. The drive is only 4 hours away but online keeps saying to take breaks etc because its dangerous to have the baby in a car seat for more than 2 hours at a time. Anyone been thru something similar? And what did you do?

Inconsolable crying baby

Hi all, my baby is almost 6 weeks and in the past few days have been a real struggle as I breastfeed him, he temporarily falls asleep on me than suddenly wake up and cries non stop. No hunger or cold/warm temp or gassiness involved I believe - I tried also putting them in any position (on me as well), but nothing really works.
Quite sleep deprived therefore - both of us.

Anyone having something similar at month 2? How did you deal with it?

Any suggestion is welcome 🫶🏻

10 month old starting tantrums?

So my recently turned 10 month old has just started throwing his head back and making his body rigid when he’s not happy about something - like being put in his play pen, being taken for a nappy change/ nap etc. I’m worried of him doing it and hitting his head hard or worse being dropped (he is very big and heavy) - there has been a few near misses already.

He has also bitten me a few times in the last month (he’s got opposing teeth so really hurts) - luckily that seems to be lessening.

Just wondering if others are/ did have similar experience with their LB? Is it normal to start tantrum type behaviour at this age? And if so how do you react to it?

2 year old waking up at night

If your toddler 2 years wakes up at night and you know it’s a regression and they’re not crying just making whining noises and other sounds would you go into his/her room or just wait for them to fall asleep again even if it takes up to an hour?

Almost 5 months postpartum and feel terrible about myself

I just needed to rant and get this out.

I’m 5 months postpartum on the 21st and I have never felt so uncomfortable in my own skin. I look in the mirror and barely recognise myself.

I’ve tried different things, I’ve changed my hair, try doing my makeup, bought new clothes and it all seems to make me feel worse.

And the weird thing is, it’s not my c section scar or my stretch marks that are actually bothering me, I can admire they gave me my beautiful son. It’s literally EVERYTHING else about myself I just hate looking at myself in the mirror!

I don’t think it helps that I feel so lonely, I don’t feel like many people understand what I went through with my labour and what I’m going through MH wise now and just think I’m being ignorant but I physically don’t have the mental capacity to message people everyday and be in constant conversation but yet I crave human interaction and friends.

Does everyone feel this way at first and when does it go away?

BF to Formula

Has anyone made a switch overnight rather than a gradual change? If so how did your baby react. My baby girl is 3 months and I’m planning to switch. She’s exclusively bottle fed.
