    I know I'll get comments about it, so I'm going to pin this comment.
    Yes, my daughter has a birth mark on the back of her head!
    The doctor and nurses called it a "Stork Bite" which is referring to the fact it may be a temporary birth mark.
    The medical term for a stork bite is nevus simplex.
    It's not a strawberry hemangioma, as some people thought, but funny fact is that's the kind of birthmark I have on my back!
    Who here has a birth mark?!

      Well, remember that babies only really need food/feeding supplies, diapers/wipes, a safe place to sleep, clothes, a cheap car seat/stroller, and medical essentials (nose sucker, Tylenol, gripe water or equivalent, butt paste, thermometer, etc). Swings are awesome too. You can ask the hospital for different things like nipple cream, formula samples (take em just in case if you do plan on breastfeeding), pumping supplies, diapers, wipes, blankies, hats, baby shampoo, soap, etc).

  • @brandy6017
    @brandy6017 4 года назад +11

    If you can, I’d suggest pumping first before feeding baby! Only long enough for the let down to slow down, than latch her. That way she won’t be sprayed every time lol. My baby boy just accepts it but it’s a mess!

    • @lauren8627

    • @arianacannie9360
      @arianacannie9360 3 года назад

    • @jljacobs0127
      @jljacobs0127 3 года назад

      With all 5 of mine I doing that if you start nursing on the less predictive side and pump the other one at the same time, it helps. It helps build your supply also. I would always pump the opposite side while nursing and then you have a milk stash in the freezer if you should need it.

    I'm a super producer, too, so I feel your pain. I like to get the milk to let down, then let it spray into a nursing pad, or a haakaa to save it, then once the milk stops spraying, latch baby on. Also, to help even things out, always start her on the less heavy producing side. Your body will eventually figure out you don't need to make so much.

      Tamara Protić I do recommend getting a super soft pillow to put your baby on while in the hold. I tried the bopie (however you spell baby products nowadays) she sat too high and would loose milk. Tried a firm pillow and she cried. Tried holding without anything bad idea with a 10 ibs 5 oz baby. I would also suggest feeding them in a diaper to keep them awake if that helps. Sorry for the long reply

Lol. You’ve been so honest and real with your pregnancy and birth experience and watching the love you have for your daughter is the sweetest thing 🥰 if i were a new mom you would be exactly the person I was looking for for guidance...keep being your amazing self, you are literally glowing being a momma 💕

    Hey Brittany ,
    I'm a new mama to a baby boy ( Luca James💙) since July. While I was pregnant I watched your videos and connected immediately! Being able to relate with your postpartum journey, your "a day in my life" videos and using some tips/tricks on what to take to hospital really made me feel comfortable during a pretty uncomfortable time lol. I've really enjoyed the content of your channel and cant wait to see what you and your beautiful baby squish post in the future❤ Me being a stay at home mama now I have time to focus on creating a career at home for myself, and finishing my education, since I am training to become a birth and postpartum doula/ birthworker and educator in the state of Ohio, and I feel like doing vlogs could really help me to reach out and educate other mamas out there that need support during their pregnancy/birth journey❤ are there any tips you could give me on where to start with vlogs? If so it's much appreciated. Have a wonderful week!❤

    I have the exact same issue with water boarding my baby. 🤣 My solution is to keep a burp cloth tucked close under her chin (or a bib) and when she backs out, let your breast finish its letdown into the cloth. Once it has slowed way down, offer baby the breast again with your nipple that is still dry because you expressed it into the cloth. :)

    I loved the MAM pacifier too, they’re tinier and I had a 26.6 wk preemie. Any preemie moms, PLEASE get your babe the MAM. They have different sizes, just get the smallest one.
    The “McDonalds” butt paste is def the best - especially if they get any sort of rash, it’ll clear it up faster than anything else. It has the same % of the active ingredient (40% zinc oxide) as Desitin, but for some reason this one works the best. I used the more organic kinds or even the spray kinds or ointments without any rashes. The clear ointments (get petroleum free, think aquaphor texture, but without the petroleum - honest makes one, so does Matys, Alba, Zarbees). And that stuff is amazing for their lips and cheeks in the cold months to avoid any chapping. Use it tons. We still use it and our girl is six now.
    We used a dock a tot, and it was life changing - I would get the snuggle me if I had another baby. Whichever you get, I have to agree, get at least one extra cover !!

    I didn’t use pacifiers with my first two kids my daughter had no interest neither did my son and I wasn’t sold on the idea. I was afraid of the weaning would be really long. My twins were born at 31 weeks and the pacifier was standard practice. I let it happen because they were going through so much. Weaning was pretty easy for us. I will probably use a pacifier this time I see no issue with it.
