A friend had this, they were noticeably wonky and she HATED it and was really self conscious in a lot of clothes. She weaned the toddler eventually and they’re MUCH more even, ones still a little bigger but unless you’re staring it’s not noticeable.

I’ve had a boobs size difference always. But since I got pregnant and started breast feeding the boob that was bigger in size had more milk in it 😂
And the flow is good as well in the boob with bigger size. And baby prefers that side of boob for this reason. I’m facing that same problem 😭 specially with the OCD I’ve I can’t see them both like that 😂😭

My little boy had a favourite boob but it all settled down when we stopped feeling.

I’m dealing with that rn just try to pump on that side as much as you can

This was the case with my little girl and the health visitor told me it could be because she has a preferred side to lay on because of being in the womb! So when I feed her now I’ll feed on each boob but so she’s laying on the same side - hope that makes sense!

I didn’t manage to fix it whilst feeding but recovered post 😅

I feel like once they get a preference it’s hard, but try to keep them going on the less fav boob, otherwise the issue gets worse.

If you need a fix as in appearance under you shirt get a bra in the bigger cup size and then add padding into the smaller one. I think its called a asymmetrical bra insert. Asymetrical breasts are completely normal and common during breast feeding. It will go back to normal once you are done but takes a year or so.

My favorite brand Understance used to make an asymmetrical bra with optional inserts. Sadly theyre going out of business….

Totally normal. It goes away after you’re done breastfeeding, in my experience.

Reducing formula feeds

I've just been told by my nursery that they wont give bottles of/and formula from 1 year one, my little boys 1 in 3 weeks.
Looking for advice on how to reduce his formula intake?
Hes loves both food and milk 🫣 I think he will drink cows milk so that's not the issue im more concerned about the fact that hes in a routine with his bottles.

Normal behaviour?

Please help. My son is 12 months old and still breastfed. He goes to nursery twice a week. When we pick him up, he screams all the way home (only 4 mins) and then continues to tantrum and really winds himself up to the point where he is extremely upset and distressed, until I can sit down to feed him. Is this normal please?😭 I’m dreading weening him off

1 week postpartum

Hi, I’m 1 week postpartum and exclusively breastfeeding. My baby last had a poo on 20th March (when she was 3 days old) and hasn’t had one since… just wet nappies. She seems very okay too. Is this normal? I’m seeing the health visitor on Monday but just wanted some reassurance thanks x

Late talkers

Hi everyone - My daughter is 27months old and still doesn’t say more than a handful of words regularly. She mostly just says one syllable or sound of a word. We’ve been doing speech therapy for a little more than 6 months. She is starting to vocalize and at least try more, but still has not really started producing actual words yet. It is getting harder and harder not to stress out about this and worry that something more might be wrong, like I recently started looking into childhood apraxia of speech.

I’m looking for some community of people who have gone through or are going through similar things just to be able to talk to someone about it. Did anyone have a child with a similar profile at this age - how did it go from there for you? Is anyone going through something similar right now and want to chat?

Thanks.

Last nap of the day

When does everyones babies last nap of the day roughly end and then when is bedtime ?

My son naps 3/4 times a day but only 30/40 mins at a time and that's contact napping or in cot . In his awake windows you can tell he's tired but I cannot get him to extend the naps at all . Going off chat gpt because of this they recommend bedtime as early as 5.45 up until 6.30 most evenings . Which is fine for him he will go to sleep but it's not for me as he co sleeps so I'm then stuck up stairs all evening , don't have time to shower , eat , clean anything and it's just taking over as I do not get a minute. Any advice welcome
