I've given advice and tips about pumping and managing GD...but only when I was asked!
-
Sometimes. There is one friend in particular that actually tries to give me advice and I accept it kindly but we have different views on things.

I have the youngest LO in my group of friends. I have a pregnant friend but I only give her tips or advice if she asks specifically! All the unsolicited advice I got while I was pregnant made me crazy so I'm very careful not to do the same thing.
-
Sometimes. But most of the advice I give out is regarding baby products. And only if they ask.

I have a friend who's having a baby in November and him and his wife have already asked me a TON of questions from breastfeeding, pumping, FMLA, diapers, childbirth, etc. I love sharing my experience so I'm thrilled when I'm asked for advice! I try to only give advice when asked and not be too know-it-all-y about it.

My girlfriend was my advice giver for delivery and the first couple of months. But now that the boys are older we tend to give and take. We mostly are needing a sounding board about the support we do/don't get from the hubbies. I did have a pregnant friend ask me a few questions the other day.
-
Yes! My closest friends are very accepting of helpful information. I always make sure to let them know that if they don't want my advice to tell me
-
Sometimes...but it's posed as more, "What did you do for this?" We bounce ideas off of each other when asked.

Only if they asked. I've been asked about pregnancy, napping/sleep, clothes, registry advice. I definitely don't pretend to know it all. I just say this is what worked for us, or didn't work.
