1. How old is LO?
4 months

2.How is breastfeeding going?
Good! She had her 4 month well visit and is growing on track.

3. How is pumping/work (if you are back to work)?


4. Any short and/or long-term breastfeeding goals? Any goal updates?
Short term goals are to continue to work on reducing her gas. Long term goals-make it to 2.

5. How are nights?
I've given up. She only sleeps in bed with me touching me in some way. I don't love it, but it's the only way we all get sleep.

6. Any teeth/signs of teething?
The pediatrician said her gums feel hard. She is chomping down on all the things and there is so.much.drool, but my first was the same way at this age and didn't get a tooth until 6 months. So who knows.

7. Questions/AW/Rant?



GTKY: If you have time for hobbies, what is one of your favorites?
I have no time right now with a baby who doesn't sleep and a toddler who is potty training, but I used to love bird watching, reading, drinking wine.

How old is LO? Almost 4 months


2. How is breastfeeding going? Good!


3. How is pumping/work (if you are back to work)? I hate pumping but it’s going well. I actually have over supply so I’m trying to figure out how to sort of cut back on pumps while not exploding out of my shirt during the school day.


4. Any short and/or long-term breastfeeding goals? Any goal updates. I’d love to make it a year so everyday is one day closer.

5. How are nights? Good. She has started waking up once or twice to eat but I’m a ok with that. I think this is our last so I want all the baby snuggles because I know it ends soon.

6. Any teeth/signs of teething? Just a massive amount of drool

7. Questions/AW/Rant? We have 4 other teachers at school who are having babies. I am not wanting to share my pumping closet (when I’m using it). I realize that sounds incredibly selfish but I had to find this closet for myself, clean it out, set it up, etc. There will be no good way for me to unlock the closet for them to come in when their lunch starts because mine is first and I have to pump right away to be finished to get my kids from recess. It’s in library too so no thank you to students accidentlyn seeing anything. I’m not sure how to bring this up to them either but I need to cross this bridge soon.

GTKY: If you have time for hobbies, what is one of your favorites? I love to read - usually light stuff, science fiction, fantasy, or YA stuff.

danvers I know how you feel about sharing a pumping space! Right now I have the room to myself and I have everything set up how I like it and I leave by things in there while I’m working. At some point I will have to share. Boo.
