Unsure if this is against the rules but I feel the need to warn moms here.

I recently commented on a breast feeding/breast pump posts. Ever since, I have had random people message me (I'm sure they're men, posing as women), trying to get me to talk about breast feeding.

I can't share screenshots here because posting pictures is locked, but when your profile is "closed for public" it's obvious you're being creeps. When I called one of them out, I was blocked.

Hey Mamas! I just wanted to share what I am feeling with the periods back in business after 6.5 months of delivery.

I handle my LO alone all day and I have a help for only cleaning. Rest everything I did myself, I could do it with no complaints whatsoever. I was also engaging my baby with lazy EC,so lots of langots and cotton diapers being used and changed throughout the entire day. I was also having zero screen time and having lots of developmentally appropriate activities with her.

I got my periods yesterday and the flow is heavy and it's like life is oozing out of me, my face has become pale. I didn't want them back. My baby was in disposable diapers all day long. I faked a smile or two to her the entire day. Kept laying next to wherever she's playing, like a dead log. And to the extreme, I made her watch Ms. Rachel so that I could cook something for her quickly and clear the place a bit here and there so that I can rest mentally as well or else she just scoots here and there on floor while I do all this and I had no energy to keep picking her up again and again.

On call, my husband sensed the exhaustion, took a half day leave, came back home, cooked lunch and ordered dinner and played with LO as far as he could with his work calls in between, so that was a bit of relief.

Today, on the second day, I am alone again. And my poor baby girl will again watch Ms. Rachel and laugh at her eccentricities, I guess.

How was your experience with Day 1 period postpartum?

TLDR: periods back, I am exhausted and I am sad that I am making my baby watch Ms. Rachel.

I know this topic has been brought up many times but I wanted to ask which car seats would you recommend ?

I have 1yo daughter and budget is a bit of an issue, so cant go with Chicco or Joie. Any cheap and best alternative would be great. I am also worried about putting money in it and then my daughter refusing to sit in it. So any insights on that would be welcome!

5 month old sleeps really less in the night as well as the day. She wakes up between 4-5am irrespective of her bed time and would require constant rocking just to be kept in light sleep. Day naps are not more than 30-40mins .

I have tried extending her naps but it doesn't always work.

Her bedtime is between 7pm-9pm depending on the last nap of the day .

She is active and playful during the day but really fussy starting late noon and needs constant stimulation. I wonder whether she is just overtired because of lack of sleep.

I want her to sleep around 7:30 pm so that she gets at least 9 hours of night sleep but it doesn't always work out because of her crap naps.

I do follow wake windows and her sleep cues but she resists the last nap hard unless i let her sleep on me.

She is also hitting her milestones on time so I am not sure whether she is just a low sleep need baby or less sleep is impacting her development.

Has anyone else gone through this with their baby?

Baby boy s gonna b 14 month on this May 10 and hasn’t started walking or standing independently! And my frens baby boy who s 10 days younger than him is walking flawlessly ! Fucked up and very angry to see them

Dear mommies

Most of the playschools get over by 12:30 pm and mom return from office by 5 or 6 pm. Where does your child go after school? How are you guys managing this situation

Hello! I am due next month and i plan to pump and feed too, as i want to prioritise my flexibility and space little bit, once the little one is here. Also, i would join back work post 6 months mat leave Needed help and advice on pumps:

1. Should i invest in a breast pump now, or wait after the baby arrives and see how it goes. I would be getting a phillips avent electric pump as a hands me down
2. How good and effective are handsfree pumps? Should i invest in one? I was planning on buying only one piece and not a pair for the time being. But should i buy it now or wait it out ? Any good recco would be very helpful I have been researching on promom, roboso and momcozy. But would love to hear some genuine reviews Thanks a lot in advance
