Postpartum

I feel like postpartum gets talked about in such a narrow way sometimes.

Some women feel overwhelming love, some feel anxious, some feel disconnected, and some feel things they cannot even fully explain. A lot of it seems to stay unspoken.

Lately I have been having more honest conversations with moms, and it has really shifted how I understand the postpartum experience. There is so much depth there that does not always have a place to be shared.

If you have ever wanted a space to talk about your experience in a thoughtful and supportive way, I would truly love to connect 🤍

Washing liquid

Hi! I can’t stand the weird smell of any of the blue non bio washing stuff. Is there anything else that can be used for washing newborn? Something that smells a bit better 😬

Dream feeding

Hi
I need to stop dream feeding my baby at night when he wakes up. How do you do this or transition? He is mainly breastfed but I’ve started to give a bottle on the night on the last feed before he sleeps

Anyone else?

Anyone else a c section, co sleeping, breastfeeding mama and your body is just in bits? I don’t know if my bed is just uncomfortable postpartum or if it’s my body and cosleeping/breastfeeding positions. I feel like stretching helps a little but my hips and lower back especially are awful, but generally I just feel so achy and uncomfortable most of the time. Is it just me?

What wakes your baby up?

I'm curious...when your baby wakes overnight, what is it waking them up? Is it hunger or something else? My little boy (breastfed) only wakes for two nights feeds (which is great!) but wakes himself up after wriggling/flapping about in his sleep every 1.5/2 hours too 😬
