    For those who have weaned before.

    @vl32 I let mine self wean so it was a gradual process over a long period of time and when we were done there was mutual peace and acceptance of the situation, no depression even though I have a history of PPD.

    Got an 'answer' for my "next level" velcro baby. I was too stressed while pregnant.

    @nazpastor Thats rediculous. All babies are born with their own temperament and personalities, my kids literally were born with their same personalities they have now at 7 and 10 years old.

    3-6 months - What’s next?

    @benvi85 3-6 is really fun! They start to come into their little personalities! Lots of laughter, maybe a first word (closer to 6), they reach for people and find their toes and begin to engage with the world. It’s magical seeing it all through their eyes.

    How long until the belly goes back to normal?

    @cernunnos I would give it a solid year for the skin to do it’s thing, Pilates also helped me alot with firming up my mid section

    Breastfeeding sports bras

    @robo23 I just buy size appropriate sports bras, not nursing specific ones. If I need to nurse during a workout I roll it up.

    When did your belly snap back?

    @cernunnos Do you have DR? Mine was pretty flat by 6 months but the skin did continue to tighten for a couple of years

    “Cosleeping/bed-sharing creates dependent children”

    @jess75 We co slept and extended breastfed. Around 8-9 years old my oldest just began to prefer to sleep on his own, it was a very easy and natural transition. If there is a storm or he has a bad dream he will still occasionally crawl into my bed and I welcome that as long as he needs it. My 7...

    “Cosleeping/bed-sharing creates dependent children”

    @jess75 What’s wrong with a child being dependent on the parent? That’s a sign of trust and attachment. Trust me they will reach a certain age where they crave their independence but having that foundational bond will help you weather the teen years and beyond.

    Pregnancy fitness app that isn’t a pdf?

    @acurisur Those workouts contain alot of education about modifications, so I take that information into my other strength classes. I also try to do classes with other pregnant instructors, they tend to choose exercises that work well. I do repeat the prenatal core classes alot, there’s too much...

    Needing to stop breastfeeding for medical reason

    @jhonkim Have you done pelvic floor PT? Of course do whatever you feel is best, but I would hate for you to wean and regret it without exhausting other potentially very beneficial options.

    Has anyone built a butt while breastfeeding?

    @needadviceplease I’m inclined to think the mothers in those studies were taking a very large dose. I would never feel comfortable taking more than 5G in general, which in someone with healthy kidneys should never cause an issue. That much is easily sourced naturally through a meat heavy diet.

    Has anyone built a butt while breastfeeding?

    @virginiaann It’s def more challenging but keeping doing what you are doing and potentially adding 5G of creatine a day (if you are comfortable with it) could be helpful!

    Postpartum workouts

    @jaychristian It took me 5 years to get back my “ideal body” after 2 pregnancies. I’m pregnant again now, but hoping to get back in shape a little quicker this time. I found nutrition to be the most important aspect, eating balanced and nutritious meals allowed me to fuel proper workouts while...

    C-Section Tenderness

    @linley The nerves take up to a year to heal, there’s weird sensations as they do. I had phantom burning and shooting pains in a numb area on my abdomen around the incision for many months. Eventually the weirdness subsided but some of the numbness did remain permanently. It doesn’t bother me...
