Kirkland grass fed butter
I have a 5-month-old who will be 6 months old soon. Lately, she gets upset every time my husband and I eat and does everything she can to try to grab our food.
Weā€™re planning to take a more ā€œmilk to meatā€ approach with introducing foodsā€”bone marrow, bone broth, meat butter, etc. Iā€™ve heard that grass-fed butter can be a great first food after 6 months.
I think I may have bought the wrong kind, though. The butter I purchased is salted. For those of you who gave your babies butter around 6 months, what brand or type did you use? Should I be looking for unsalted grass-fed butter instead? Iā€™m assuming so.

Is there something safe my baby could sleep with to hold onto?
my daughter is about to be 3 months old and recently, when sheā€™s sleeping she will grip onto her binky and rip it out of her mouth, which then causes her to wake up. sheā€™ll also use her other hand to grip onto the back of her hair really tight. is there anything i could give her to grip onto to try to stop this but still make sure sheā€™s safe?? sheā€™s just so young iā€™m not sure if thereā€™s much (if anything) i can do about it..

Love to Dream Swaddle
Iā€™ve been wanting to get our boy a love to dream swaddle for awhile because he likes having his arms up when heā€™s sleeping, but I couldnā€™t spend $35-$40 on it so heā€™s just been using sleep sacks. Well I found one second hand for $5 and we used it for the first time last night. He went down about 10pm (super late for him) and is still sleeping at 8:09am as I write this. He was already a good sleeper (8-9 hrs a night) but he would constantly be moving and making noises so it was hard for me to get good sleep. He didnā€™t whine during the night and barely moved aroundšŸ˜­ I woke up refreshed!!! Iā€™m hoping it wasnā€™t a one night fluke.

Latching Issues
My two week old has been bottle fed since she was born because she wouldnā€™t latch in the hospital. We have used the Dr. Brown bottles and switched to a premie ni**le, which has been okay.
About 3 days ago I attempted to start feeding from the breast again and with a lot of work and patience I was able to get her to latch. She has no problem latching onto the right side but she can not latch to the left side and if she does itā€™s very painful so I know it isnā€™t a good latch.
Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how did you fix it? I really donā€™t want to give up on breastfeeding but itā€™s very frustrating for both of us.
Also wanted to add that since I was pumping exclusively, I created a huge over supply. I pump at least 11oz every 3 hours.

Do these LM cups work as well as the original spectra system? Iā€™m small chested and I also find the spectra flanges kinda painful. One nice thing about the spectra is that I can see the milk flow and if it stops flowing, I can change my angle or try to massage/squeeze my girls to get more milk out. Donā€™t think I would be able to do that with the cups. Just trying to find something more comfortable and wanted to ask before I purchase these pricey cups - thanks!

Hi guys, i need a little inspiration. My 6 week old has fallen into the 2nd percentile a day has been slow to put on weight. Im currently triple feeding with a 70ml top up of expressed milk. She occasionally goes on the breast but other times totally refuses and will only have the bottle. Has anyone experienced this and had success with breastfeeding in the long run.
Thank you!

Can baby gain too much weight too quickly? My daughter has gained 12oz in a week I mentioned it while out today and I was met with looks of concern, asked if she has any conditions or if Iā€™m feeding too muchā€¦sheā€™s 3 weeks exclusively breast fed on demand I feel really stupid for even asking šŸ˜…

I need advice on how to get my milk supply to go back up !!!! My son is 3 months old on the 11th , when he was first born I was producing between 14-16oz per pump after feeding him . It was too much on my body so I slowed my pumped down to 2 pumps per day for 5 days . I then dropped to anout 8 oz per pump. I just moved from Texas to Delaware and now Iā€™m barely producing 2-3 oz per pump which is not enough to feed my son . Any advice is appreciated !! Thank you in advance !!!šŸ«¶šŸ¼

Hi! Iā€™m a first time momma and my baby is 7weeks, Iā€™m trying to figure out how to sleep train? Every now and then he will sleep around 5 hrs at a time but heā€™s in a clingy stage where all he wants is momma.
If anyone has any recommendations to help me and him get better sleep for longer periods that would be awesome!
