@allfree15 Ah, I understand. Yes, it's definitely harder when they won't take a pacifier in my opinion. Babies have shorter sleep cycles than adults, and often have trouble connecting those sleep cycles. The reality is almost no baby (or adult) truly sleeps through the night, we just connect...

@allfree15 Are you nursing to sleep? Does she take a pacifier? If you are nursing, do you ever pump and bottle feed, or do bottles of formula? You say she's not sleeping through the night anymore, is she waking out of hunger? How often is she waking? And is she getting enough calories during...

@sgk080212 Or not at all

@olamide The thread in question 😬 https://www.reddit.com/r/breastfeeding/s/wkHlg7aYrr

@nader1 EBF over here and my child sleeps from 7pm to 9/10am ish with one feed around 6am. Also he sleeps in his own bed. We do not co sleep. Formula won't make babies sleep longer. Unless you want formula to be a long term thing, you need to pump when you feed formula otherwise your supply...

@lauriesinglemom Did she seem willing to get vaccinated? "I just never did" doesn't exactly sound anti vaxx. But it sounds like COVID could pose quite the risk to your family. If she's not willing, I would maybe contact the agency and ask about this. There's a chance she lied to them which I'm...

@christiansmommy Bottles are unlikely to make your baby sleep better. But if you're pumping and providing breastmilk via a bottle, yes it's still breastfeeding. Your breast is feeding your baby still, one way or another. People quit because it's hard. Because they don't have enough support...

@ciejay That's not what the study says. "The reduction in SIDS risk seemed more pronounced in adverse sleep environments." This does not mean it has no benefit in safe sleep environments. It also goes on to list "adverse environments" examples as anything from warmer room temperatures, to...

@iiell_spinder_1 They make pillows for less than a quarter of the cost that are basically two of those connected so that they work for both sides.. aka a U pillow

@lookintochat https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3586783/ "In contrast to the dramatic shift in composition observed in the first month of life, human milk remains relatively similar in composition, although subtle changes in milk composition do occur over the course of lactation" I...

@david3r1 Then you should go with rear facing since it's the safest.

@qmedic 1) NSAIDS can help with inflammation which can help with clogs and mastitis. Same goes with ice. I always found a hot shower and manual pump to work for clogs, but always said that if it didn't work, I'd do the ice route. No harm in trying the ice. 2) probiotics were recommended for my...

@oppmuntre This article you posted doesn't even back up what you're saying about composition changes and caloric need. I implore you to find an article that does, and also includes citations.

@eleader22 Sounds like you need to leave and go work in a library during the mornings! If your husband can't understand the separation between WFH and just being home, you've gotta physically show him. Returning from leave sucks. I'm sorry work is being so stressful on top of everything else!

@vlisco I will just note that the nipple backwash theory is just a theory at this point and needs more research and evidence.
