  • We had the rasberry teethers for my daughter...I dont feel like they worked :( I dont use these but what about Hylands teething tablets, I've heard great things about them...I just always have had a hard time finding them for some reason.
  • Have you tried putting her back on the breast? That is the best way to increase your supply, pumping is said to not be an accurate way to judge your supply. I think your calories are set at a good place...Im at 1780 and EFB and do not seem to have any issues. My son also has reflux which was discovered at 7 weeks...Sorry…
  • We are in SD and live in OFF BASE housing. We were actually fortunate enough to buy a home here. Housing here is nice although there are several places that do no allow animals so if you have animals your picks are pretty slim. Check out Lincoln Military housing for the list of locations...there is really no "on-base"…
  • Have you tried pumping for a few minutes before feedings? that could help you get off the nipple shield? Just a thought. :) My son is teething and doing the same - I do the boob smoosh and seems to work...I will say that now that he has done it a few times I watch him more closley while he is eating...I guess trying to…
  • My son will be 6 months old this week and his is also EFB but is getting homemade babyfood and oatmeal most days. My calories are set at 1780...not sure if that is where I should be but have lost a few pounds so Im going to stick with it until I stop seeing progress.
  • We are currently a few days shy of 6 months! I originally thought of only doing it until 6months but I actually really enjoy it - things are going so well. Im not ready to break out the bottles so my goal is to hit a year! :)
  • I also waited till 6 weeks...but took me alittle longer to get motivated because I wanted to make sure my milk supply was fully established before I started working out/dieting in fear of losing it. Welcome to the group!
  • Ive seen those good to know they are so accurate! I think I'll look at both...I can only imagine how expensive that one maybe though! I typically buy everything at Costco...I was just there today actually - dang should have looked at scales!
  • Im 5 months pp with my first section. My daughter was born vaginally. The first two months were the worst. I didnt have time to rest and relax too much either - we had alot of family things going on so I think that attributed to me feeling bad for longer and not giving my body time to rest and heal. Now at 5 months Im feel…
  • We use huggies or kirkland brand whatever has a coupon at Costco. I prefer the huggie wipes but the kirkland wipes are not that bad either. We typically do not have a probably with either brand. Has anyone tried the overnight diapers, I think they start at size 3? I may pick up a pack and see how well they do overnight. :)
  • GinE73! Our kids are the same age! How fun! :)
  • Thank you Blink1021! :)
  • I gained 60 pounds with my son, he is 5 months old and I have about 10 more pounds to go to pre-pregnancy weight. I do believe nursing is helping but Ive been stuck at this weight for about 2 months now and ready to really start being accountable for my calories and being more active! 213 -187 is amazing! Keep up the great…
  • Hello! This is Lindsay. I am married to an amazing Sailor. We are stationed in San Diego and have 2 beautiful children, Olivia 2 (3 in June) and Ethan 6 months. My goal is to lose 40 pounds, I am currently nursing my son, which I thought would do wonders for the baby weight but i was mistaken! Need some encouragement and…
