Advice Needed Please

I’m due to be a bridesmaid for a wedding we have coming up and I currently ebf my baby who will be 10 months at the wedding. I am planning on having a few drinks (to help with my nerves) so just looking for advice on storing breastmilk whilst at a hotel and also transporting milk as I’m going to have to pump in advance for this and then going to have to pump and dump on the day.. any advice would be highly appreciated!

Drinking is fine, no need to pump & dump, just feed or pump as normal x

Don’t worry about pumping and dumping - have the drink and enjoy yourself!

Your BAC in your blood is what gets to your baby. So if you're able to drive (legal limit is 0.08%) your baby is probably getting the equivalent of a juice or kombucha.
Regarding storing milk, ive had success asking hotels to store a cooler bag for me. Call ahead and explain your situation and they might be able to help!

Private parts

Soo, my five year old foster kiddo has been with us for about three months now and he is constantly grabbing his penis to the point he makes it hard. I haven't had to deal with this ever, so I'm not quite sure how to handle it. I've tried telling him he can only touch it when he's alone, going to the bathroom, or washing it, but he hasn't stopped. I don't want to shame him over something that's natural, but I also don't want him grabbing himself in front of people. Help!

Which laundry detergent are you using?

Hi all, what laundry detergent are you using? I know fairy tends to be the go to for most, but I really don't like the smell of it.

Any suggestions on others?

Where are we changing our babies?

Hey y’all! My baby is 5 months. I used to change her on her dresser changing pad, now she’s a tornado and I had to bring out the halo bassinet to change her in for safety reasons. Eventually she will grow out of it, now I’m thinking… where are you guys change your baby? Cause the crib at some point will be lowered, bassinet too small, floor is very low, and a dresser seems to be unsafe(at least for now)

Drying milk supply

I’ve decided after 18 weeks of exclusively pumping that I am done. Switching to formula but obviously I know I can’t just stop pumping.

I’ve cut down to 3 pumps a day (plus an 8 min pump in the middle of the night because uncomfortable) and i’m producing the same, if not more than I was on 4/5 pumps a day. Currently producing around 900ml on 3/4 pumps.

How long will it take for my supply to stop? I just want it over with😢
