How is everyone else doing!? Any new babies?! [emoji7]

Boyz: how's today been? Have you told DH that you really need his help? Do you have family or friends close by too? I've been thinking about you and I hope things are better. ❤️

Hello girls! Sorry for chiming in so late. I am so sorry Taytum and Boyz 😣 I feel you girls. It seems that us BF mom's are having a tougher time. I'm going on day 8 of breastfeeding and I'm so ready to throw in the towel. I feel partly at fault for giving my baby a breast milk bottle and introducing him to a pacifier. Looks like I have confused him and now I can't get a good latch. My supply is also drastically decreasing even with drinking lots of fluids and eating milkmaid cookies to help increase my supply but so far it's not working and I have a frustrated baby and self. I feel like running out and getting a can of formula so bad. I am going to give it a day or two and if nothing works I am officially bottle formula feeding. I feel like such a failure my dh has been helpful but has an event with his car Club so he's left me to fend for my self as well as he's outside fixing his car. I hope our dh's snap back to reality and step in a little more. They do not realize all the work we put in as mothers.

Hang in there Netti and Has2 your almost there! Best wishes and I pray you gals have a healthy delivery 😘

Appointment yesterday at just gone 36 weeks, blue bump is head down, engaged and 3/5 palpable! They don't check cervix over here until you are in labour no idea if I am starting to dilate. Has anyone used epo to ripen the cervix? And guidance on how much to use etc?

Thanks a lot taytum and yogi. I m doing ok. I asked my mom to come stay with me as i had a break down on phone and told her i can do it alone any more. So she came with my dad as well. Its too much work for her but she is trying her .But my milk supply is decreasing as my mom gives her formula meanwhile. My breast feels engrossed when i wake up after 5 +hrs. Lets see how many days its going to work otherwise i ll start formula as well. But my baby is gassy. May b i need to change formula. She doesnt burp too. But farts a lot[emoji848]

Boyz try enfamil gentleease or sensitive for fussy/gassy babies

If still gassy try enfamil prosobee for possible milk based sensitivity related gassiness

Do u have sams club in canada ? They have a generic version of enfamil and its equally good but cost is way less than thst of enfamil.

I took 500mg 3x a day orally starting at 37w. Even though my midwife said it wasn't proven to be anymore effective, I also inserted 500mg vaginally starting at 39w and bumped it up too 100mg the two days before I went into labor.
