    Another mom told me I have a fat a** today

    @sakura656 If she would have called me a fat ass I would have given it back for body shaming, then told her that she should be ashamed a woman with kids like her wants to call another mom a fat ass, in the end told her she is a poor example in front of kids for using bad language !

    Do people with kids work *harder*?

    @whitm11 Nope. I actually took up a flex job which is a 9 to 5 only. Without kids I could have taken more opportunities which were in a bigger city. I actually worked a lot in my 20s. I’m around 40 now and I have to look after my family and my health.

    Baby suddenly dropping percentiles

    @eoim Plz go to a pediatric dentist specializing in ties for an evaluation. And do a two week cut out for dairy, gluten, soy, beans. And try cup or syringe feeding. Do you have a fast letdown?

    Mom shamed for formula feeding

    @mikailao20 Let me tell you I was EBF and am no scientist ! Infact I have high blood pressure, elevated sugars, high cholesterol. Did breastfeeding help? No ! I also had bad teeth when I was younger and needed braces, have been on heavier side. The myths about formula are myths. You do what...

    Waiting for the right time..

    @badone I went for a short travel at the end of my first trimester. I was going to be getting my glucose test done the next week and there was a chance of gestational diabetes. So I wanted to gorge on all the amazing food before my strict diet and exercise regimen started. I had a nice time, we...

    Anyone else have a giant baby?

    @washedinhisblood As long as the percentiles don’t fluctuate so much it’s fine, also once they start becoming mobile they can shed the weight. My son was 90th percentile at 5 months, then started crawling, standing up at 6 months, cruising for months 10 and 11 and finally walked by himself at 12...

    15 month old not walking

    @galileesilk Some babies prefer crawling because it’s easier for them to get to their toy faster. There are some walkers which you can use and try to make his legs stronger to stand on. Even if he takes a few independent steps that’s good. Some babies can take upto 18 months to walk so it’s not...

    I’m really struggling with guilt

    @rohanakumara Really? Tell him that breastfeeding is a 10 hour job and you plan to breastfeed and do nothing else. So diaper change, entertaining baby, holding baby while baby sleeps will be done by him alone. And ofcourse cooking and cleaning. In one day he will himself start bottle feeding...

    I need a safe place to vent regarding the decision to be OAD and my Dr not supporting me fully

    @katrina2017 I had some other issue but every time it was the same lecture about having kids. I literally felt like I was talking to my mil. She was so rude at one that when I told her no she just rudely did my pap smear and left. I never went to her again.

    I need a safe place to vent regarding the decision to be OAD and my Dr not supporting me fully

    @vash07 Most obgyns just push for a baby. I don’t know maybe they make more money out of it? I actually decided to only visit once a year and that too a very quick visit just for Pap smear that’s all.

    Temporarily stepping away from career to be a stay at home mom?

    @john76 Can you do remote with the nanny or a nanny share or a nanny with kids? Or part-time with part-time daycare? Do you have any family that can help? What are the issues with the daycare? Maybe a smaller home-based one might be a better fit and might be available quicker for your baby...

    Pediatrician’s perspective on pumped breast milk

    @sophiahrz To be honest if you could just continue pumping till around 6 months. Thereafter you could feed solids/purées and you will not need as much BM

    Torticolis, tongue tie, not transferring well, reflux, not gaining weight, diarrhea..anyone?

    @coahline I know this is an EBF group but you could EP first to get up your milk supply and see if cutting out things for two weeks each - dairy, gluten, soy and if it makes him better. Try BF when he’s slightly older. Continue with all the OT he is getting, is he still very stiff and that’s...

    Mom shamed for formula feeding

    @mikailao20 She’s an idiot. Plz avoid. A happy parent is the most important thing. Science has advanced so much, we can get 3d ultrasounds, get c sections, epidurals and help with blood sugars etc. Incase you see her again pls ask her why she even delivered in a hospital ! And I always think of...
