SURPRISE 🥰 Baby #2 will be joining us June 2022 🤍✨

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

you know my right boob gets a little too engorged and hurts like a bitch just for it to barley give me 2 oz every time 😵‍💫

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

i was going to just quit for the weekend then talk to an LC the following monday but she was doing so well on bottle feeding and i noticed a difference in me and her that i just stopped over all.

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

almost 2 weeks since i’ve stopped nursing (just pumping and giving her the milk or giving formula here and there) and my mental health has been so much better 😅 was creeping into baby blues in the beginning before i made the switch 🙃

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

i struggled with breastfeeding with Levi in the beginning but only because of using the nipple shield. he was getting enough and was content. with Caroline she wasn’t getting enough and it hurt every single time she latched. they looked for ties and she supposedly didn’t have any

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

Caroline doesn’t make the gulping noise when nursing that levi did when he was younger so now i don’t think i have a good supply or let down (there’s other reasons i think this but this just adds to them) 🙃🙃🙃

[Tay @tayychurch]

half the time i feel like i’m failing my kids with how hard parenting is right now

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

no more kids for me, 2 and done 😅🙃

@foxxvbaby no alcohol 🫣

i think Caroline is clusterfeeding and i’m so exhausted, idk what to do besides put her on the boob when the pacifier won’t calm her. levi never clusterfed 🥴 last time i slept was from 10pm-12:30am 😴

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

she nursed from 4:10-4:48am then finally passed out but only by laying on me 🙃 so that’s how we slept until 6:50am

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

i slept an hour and half maybe tonight, Caroline been a hoot and a half 🙃😴

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

obsessed 🥹🤍

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

breastfeeding is going so good though i’m so grateful, once the engorgement goes away i’ll be killing it postpartum. Caroline is a champ and i can finally walk with little to no pain 💪🏽

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

my milk came in and my boobs are rocks 🥹

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

at this point my house will never be cleaned before baby girl comes and i’ll just be stressed bc of a newborn and dirty house 🥰

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

with baby girl coming in 10 days and this formula shortage i hope my freaking boobs do their job 🥺🥺🥺 i’m gonna have to keep up with pumping and make sure i use both boobs this time, stressed af 😵‍💫

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

it’s baby month 🤪

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

@jenna_elliott sometimes he’ll say all done so idk why he does it with some food 😵‍💫

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

levi does this thing when he’s full and done eating he’ll just spit his food out onto his plate and i wanna rip my hair out

[Nikki @nikkissmith_]

chunky baby girl 🥺🥺
