Watched a reading that made me question my beliefs

Hi there! So, first off I wouldn’t call myself a medium but I’m interested in mediumship and have had a few readings throughout my life and done a few practices myself.

So because it’s a field that interests me, it’s usually on my algorithm on various social media platform. Now I know TikTok mediums already have quite a rep, keep that in mind. But I occasionally will watch a big name on there who I won’t mention. But this woman claims to be pretty legit and big time. Read for celebs, been on tv, met all the super famous mediums etc etc.

This medium reads people on her lives and today I had it on as some background noise as I did laundry. I have seen her do a few readings and frankly never felt like they were that impressive but this particular one today really shook me and I just thought…yikes. I’m curious to see what actual mediums have to say about it

So a woman called in and paid (a pretty steep fee) for a mediumship reading on live. We come to later learn she wants to connect with her infant son who passed due to SIDS.

The medium starts off by asking who she wants to connect with (a little sketchy maybe? Wouldn’t she just tell her who comes through?) and the woman says my son. Medium says immediately before she can even finish her sentence and says “I get an impact, like a big crash” the lady seems on the verge of tears and says “umm no…” and then medium lady says “I see that he was on medication..and that he was always up and down, up and down, up and down” the lady is of course like uhhh no that doesn’t connect. She goes on to have a couple fairly generic hits and the lady at the end is in tears and I guess believes she got a good reading.

My thing is…it kinda seems like she thought the caller was older than she was (she just voiced called in and didn’t have a profile picture) and she went down the list of common causes of death for an adult son…crash (maybe vehicular or motorcycle) and suicide seemed to potentially be what she was implying. Only to be so inaccurate that it’s legitimately made me question everything.

Im so curious to hear any insight from all of you.

Is there a significant benefit for my baby to continue pumping after 6 months?

Hi there! So I gave birth to my first baby in January 2026. He will be 6 months old in July.

Breastfeeding has been quite the journey for me. Long story short, he has received mostly breast milk (breast milk all day with a couple formula bottles at night) since about three weeks old, prior to that it was all breast milk. The formula he gets is Enfamil Neuro Pro Gentle Ease.

He refused to breastfeed directly at about 4 months so I’m exclusively pumping at this point and he is still receiving mostly breast milk.

My original goal was around a year of this but I’m honestly wondering if there’s not enough benefits for him to continue.

The truth is I would love to stop if I’m honest. I would like to start intermittent fasting and pumping every two hours is a LOT. It’s just a lot. But I would happily do it for 6 more months if there was significant evidence that it would be very beneficial for my baby. It’s all about him for me, if it’s much better for him I’ll happily do it.

But if there isn’t….i think I might hurt save myself some time sanity and effort and discontinue in July when he’s 6 months.

I would love any info or feedback anyone has!
