@divinemarissa I linked more than one study, and I linked the study that quote came from as well.

@deborahallen Overfeeding is equivalent or greater to 30mL not just day one, but through day seven. Feeding 29 mL isn’t “adequate,” it’s still too much it simply isn’t within the scope of the study leading to obesity.

@josephjurg 20 - 30 mL of formula ≠ nutrient and fat content of colostrum. You can also overfeed your baby. You are promoting overfeeding. This study is from 2020. It hasn’t been debunked by your personal experience. I’m glad your babies are healthy and that it worked for you, but let’s stop...

@deborahallen If it’s causing obesity, it’s more than you need to hydrate and grow… obviously 🤨

@deborahallen gladly

@jimishasmom It hasn’t been debunked. They’re both promoting pretty dramatic overfeeding practices that have been scientifically proven to contribute to obesity in babies and children.

@deborahallen You are promoting overfeeding. It is science-based, and this spread of misinformation is leading to a 60% increase in infant obesity.

@sedonarose I am a better parent after I have a second to catch my breath. My daughter is with her father roughly 48 hours a week and I use that time to clean, sit in my bed and do nothing, or hang out with my friends. It’s nice to feel like you’re not “just” somebody’s mom, sometimes. I miss my...

@dgoodman Thanks! Yeah, I don’t hate her guts or anything I just am concerned that if I don’t say something and set a boundary with ex, this behavior will escalate.

@updated Thank you, I really appreciate your comment! I came here because I really wasn’t sure. The emergency contact thing really annoyed my boyfriend and my mom, because they’ve both been around since my daughter was born and they don’t understand why, if she’s including herself, they wouldn’t...

@anonymous108723 This is great advice, thank you so much 🖤 I do appreciate the feedback on this post and I feel similarly to you. I don’t feel the need to engage with her and I truthfully don’t know why she feels the need to air her grievances out with me. It’s clear she has some type of issue...

@psychopath2313 I mean.. if someone called her first I am five seconds away and she is over an hour. And no, it wouldn’t be particularly harmful, but if she escaped school somehow I doubt she’d bring her backpack lol it’s almost as big as she is and she never carries it. I’m not saying that to...

@getlostinthewild Yeah maybe I will make a new list. However, the teachers aren’t allowed to go through the children’s things, they have an EC list, and my daughter doesn’t bring her backpack anywhere besides school so it seems a little redundant to me 😅 I like the idea of having one for her...

@willowwhisp I mean yeah.. this is close to how I feel as well lol which sucks because for a long time I was happy she was there. She was better at doing my daughter’s hair and dressed her in cute outfits and stuff. I just feel like the last few months she’s been overstepping more and more and...

@dachinedur I also found it weird considering my ex never had / continues not to have an issue with my mom. Often, if he can’t get to pick up on time when it’s his turn, my mom is the one who helps him out by keeping my daughter longer or even dropping her off sometimes. They get along pretty...

@remant Yeah, I agree with most of what you said! As far at the contact list goes, it’s really pointless to have because the teachers aren’t allowed to search the kids belongings, they have an EC list that’s in the office, the card stays in her backpack which she doesn’t bring anywhere but...

@johnd1987 Definitely! I was in a similar situation. I only get $62/month in child support and when I reapplied for food stamps online I was told I didn’t qualify, but I couldn’t include a car payment or insurance on the form. I called my caseworker and she walked me through how to file an...

@heavensvoice I can’t question her parenting because she’s not a parent? I’ve been very communicative with her and nice to her since the beginning. I was initially very happy she was around because my ex stopped pestering me about getting back together, she was really nice to my daughter, she...

@heavensvoice Thank you! I feel as though a lot of people on here are sort of missing the point of my post. My issue isn’t that she wants to be included, my issue is that she seems to think that she has a place as a parent rather than an adult who loves my child. I want my daughter to have as...

@hallbee66 I didn’t say anything to them. I allow them to discipline how they see fit, I just don’t know why she is the one putting my daughter in timeout. I don’t let my boyfriend discipline her and he’s been around longer than her father. I just don’t find it appropriate, but again, I don’t...
