Yay congrats

SO's mom and step-dad are coming over for dinner so I just started a roast in the crock pot with carrots onions and potatoes, gonna make some corn bread later, and pumpkin pie for dessert!!Okay I bought the pie lol But I hope everything turns out yummy.

Im just waiting for SO to come back so he can help clean the house. Hopefully he helps since he has the day off work.

Well I think Morgan has colic =( Could be her formula or maybe I gave her my tummy issues..thankfully we bought gripe water and it seems to help! This is the first time she has gone to sleep on her own when I put her in her bouncy seat and there was no screaming

where can you gripe water? i think thorian might be colicky. he has silent reflux but it seems to be getting better but theres atleast one time a day were he is grumpy and gasy.

I started gripe water yesterday and got it from local supermarket. He is better today but dunno if thats because of gripe water or just a good day. My gripe water says only to use from 1 month old tho so I been waiting to use it on him til now

ETA since I changed his feed over b/c of colic it seems to be a thicker consistency and this has seems to have helped with the reflux so far. However that info is no use to you if you are bf'ing

I got it from Walgreens. It smells terrible but it seems to work.

that stuff is good-hopefully it helps her out!

I would get my first PP period right now 
I was hoping that because I was BF'ing it would stay away a bit longer. I mean I didn't even start until closer to 2 1/2 months with my daughter and we used formula-blahhhh

How much does your baby eat? My son is 2 weeks old and he is already at 2oz & sometimes he can do 2.5oz. It still seems like he isn't satisfied.. I give him the boob constantly I feel like I'm always feeding him, I know he is cluster feeding ATM. Any suggestions on what to do??

my son is 3weeks he'll be 4 weeks old on monday. so basically close to a month and he's at 4 oz from what I can tell (when I actually pump and he drinks from the bottle- which is maybe once a week) and he still seems hungry. i've run out of ideas. I even had to start dipping into my personal stash of frozen milk because it never seems enough

has anyone started drinking teas or taking supplements to increase milk supply yet?

I know milk is based off supply and demand but N never seems satisfied at all

Got my phone back on so I was finally able to post new pics of Brooklynn!!

im doing the opposite at the moment. I fed T earlier for ten minutes and my boobs wee still rock hard so i pumped and got 8 ounces! holy hell did i feel so much better. i love that i have a great supply but my freezer is getting full and my boobs needs to simmer down a bit. ive cut down on the pumping alot but i still seem to produce a ton!
