Per the suggestion on the due date thread, I am starting a feeding thread. I didn't make it specific to breastfeeding since I know some of our mommies are supplementing, doing formula, etc.</p> <p>My deal is that we are breastfeeding, but supplementing as necessary bc he was low weight at a 2 week appt. since then he has gained almost 1.5 lbs in 2 weeks and the ped is happy. We see her again on Monday. I'm only supplementing 1-3 feedings a day now and trying to just top him off with an ounce.<br /> I was pumping after every feed, but it was killing me. I stopped last weekend and I think it was better for my supply to not have that stress. So I don't have breast milk to supplement with, but I'm happier and I have more time for both of my kids.<br /> I was surprised at how long the feedings take. I don't remember it taking this long with J (but I pumped and bottle fed for the first 6 weeks with him). If I can get it done in an hour, I consider it a victory.<br /> Anyone else have feeding challenges and successes?!? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2014-gender-premonitionspredictions#post-1268003 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 14:55:45 +0000 BadgerMom 1268003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since we're all getting to the point where we will start finding out the sex of our babies, I thought it would be fun to put any guesses, wives tales or premonitions out there and see if we're right.</p> <p>The chinese gender chart said boy and I've had two dreams about a baby boy. My sister-in-law also told me a wives tale about which side of your house the head of your bed is on (North=girl, South=boy), and our bed is against a south facing wall. After all that, I'm still pulling for a girl, but preparing for a boy. I know once the monkey is here, I'll be happy with either :happy: </p>
