TMI
I’m nearly 5 weeks postpartum I had 2nd degree stitches not breastfeeding does anyone have an idea of what this could be I know to much information but it’s like a jelly formation and seems like it would stretch not attempted but with how it looks definitely looks like it. Just wondering if it’s something I should be concerned of or not.
Thanks in advance

Never had that postpartum. Doesn’t hurt to call the nurses line
This should be around the time you go back to your OB to check your stitches. Call and see if you can get in before your 6 weeks, I’d suggest the ER just to run any infections out
Normal. Its part of lochia and uterine tissue. Im also 2 weeks postpartum and I have some jelly like substances on some days. As long as its not foul smelling (infection indication) then youre fine
Looks like uterine tissue to me... ive had this a few times im 4 weeks pp as long as the bleeding isnt soaking the pad or theres a foul smell i wouldnt worry to much. If ur concerned it wouldnt help calling ur maternity triage unit to be checked

Switching to formula
I will have exclusively fed my 3 month old breastmilk in 2 weeks time and I think for my mental health I want to combo feed. Does anyone have any tips on this? I currently pump 7 times within 24 hours and would like to reduce that so I can live without having to pump every 3 hours. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Xxx

Can’t cope with sleep deprivation anymore
My 9 month old basically refuses to sleep. He constantly wakes up in the night and like
Tonight I’ve been up 3 hours with him.
He’ll sleep in my bed but I don’t want him in here because then I’m just giving in and giving him what he wants. I don’t even sleep when he’s in my bed either because I’m so uncomfortable.
I don’t even know what to do anymore at this point. I’m a miserable person from the sleep deprivation and incredibly depressed but health visitors and doctors are useless 😭

Baby chokes on my milk at almost every feed
I exclusively breastfeed and my little one is 7 weeks old, never had any issues before now but this past week he's choked on my milk at almost every feed and is gulping it like he's never been fed.
He generally feeds well, I alternate breasts each feed so like he'll feed on the left then next feed on the right side, but they seem too full for him and he coughs and chokes like he can't handle my milk flow. If i hand express beforehand so it isn't as full for him he is dissatisfied with the feed and wants the other side which is then too much for him and he's sick🫠🫠
Has anyone had anything like this? What did you do about it?, I feel awful watching him cough and he's spilling milk all down me which is not ideal when out of the house.

Co sleeping position
Is it okay to co sleep in this position with my 5 and a half month old? She mostly sleeps in her cot but sometimes she just wants me. Her face is completely uncovered and chin isn’t on chest etc. I know it’s not ideal but she seems to sleep so much better like this than on her back. My arm is cradling her. I don’t breastfeed and she doesn’t feed during the night. Need reassurance that it’s okay or an explanation why it isn’t😥
