My daughter has been on Kirkland ProCare formula since she was about 2 months old. She was doing perfect and pooping once every other day.

Very randomly, on July 26th, she started having anywhere from 7-10 poopy diapers in one day. The stool had mucus in it sometimes, and was watery most of the time.
She did three stool tests: Stool Culture (Q&LC), Gastrointestinal Panel PCR, and Ova and Parasites. All NEGATIVE.

On August 12, her pediatrician recommended we start her on Nutramigen to see if it’s possibly a CMPA allergy. It’s been almost a week since then. She isn’t pooping 7-10 times anymore, but she’s still pooping anywhere from 3-5 times a day. Pediatrician wants me to continue on Nutramigen for 2 full weeks. I just feel like I’m wasting time.
I asked for an allergy test to just confirm if it’s a CMPA allergy but her pediatrician says they aren’t reliable until 9 months of age.
I’m at a loss. I’m worried about my baby, and I feel like her pediatrician is being way too casual about all of this.
It isn’t a simple process to change her pediatrician. It would take her insurance a few weeks just to approve a change.
She doesn’t have any other symptoms besides the diarrhea which is why nobody seems concerned but like that just isn’t convincing to me. The diarrhea is still very concerning to me. Just wanted to see if anybody has ever dealt with anything similar?

I’m on disability after giving birth. My OBGYN has been extending me, but my primary care physician has agreed to extend me so I can just go to one doctor for all my needs. My PCP’s office is saying in order to extend me, they need me to file a new claim because their office doesn’t manage existing claims. From my understanding if I were to do this then I wouldn’t be able to continue with the current disability since a new claim would end the current claim. Is this right? I was under the assumption any physician could extend on the same claim. What’s the process here? Is my PCP’s office just wrong with the info they have?

So we had our first child in April 2024, and she is now 2 years old. I was working full time during my pregnancy with her, and until we welcomed our second child, during February 2026. So I was working a full time job while pregnant with my first, raising my first, and pregnant with my second. my second child is now 5.5 months old. I am currently a stay at home mom and have been since my second child was born.

I brought up the conversation to my husband about wanting a third. I understand we’re in the thick of it right now and maybe it was the wrong time to bring it up. But I simply cannot imagine not having a third. I know if I don’t I will regret it at some point in my life. I also understand that I can’t force my husband to want a third.

The reason I’m here is to ask about the validity of his reasons for not wanting a third, because I just can’t fully understand his thought process.

He keeps saying that having kids with me is difficult. His reason for saying this is because I have expectations from him to contribute as an equal partner. He wants to get home from work and not help out with the kids, but I expect him to get home from work and help out with bedtime. He wants to relax on the weekends and sleep in, but I expect him to help me all day. So feeding the kids, putting them down for naps, bathing them, taking them out, all the things. I expect him to help me with those things. My thinking is that they are his kids too. Just because he works it shouldn’t excuse him from raising his kids with me. I worked full time for two years while having a kid, and I made it work.

His schedule at work is different everyday. Sometimes he will have 3 hour days. Sometimes 5 hour days. Sometimes 9 hour days. It just depends. Obviously if he gets home from work late I don’t hold him accountable but if he’s home at 4 pm for example, then yes I expect him to help me until they go to bed at 7 pm.

I also take care of everything else in the house. I cook, clean, grocery shop, all the things. I just expect him to help with the kids.

My husband so far has been helping me with everything, of course not always happily, but he does help. He just doesn’t want a third because once our two kids get older, he doesn’t want to start over. I just don’t agree with him and I think we will both regret not having a third at some point.

I don’t feel like I ask a ton from him, but he keeps saying having kids with me is hard. Like I am the problem for having expectations from him.

I just want to get other opinions. Do you think he is valid and I’m wrong? How are your husbands contributing with the kids if they also work full time jobs?

So pretty much what the title says
I added a 2 inch band extender and the bra fit very very snug. The cup size was perfect
Are there any bra sizes that have the cup size equivalent of a 32DD but with a band size like 36?

I have very shallow boobs and there’s pretty much no perk to them. They’re pretty saggy as I’ve breastfed two kids in the last two years and my underbust is large in comparison. So I have a big underbust and tiny boobs.

I ended up measuring again in case I did it wrong the first time time and these are my updated measurements:

Loose Underbust: 34
Snug Underbust: 33.5
Tight Underbust:33
Standing Bust:37
Leaning Bust:40
Lying Bust: 37.5

That’s it that’s the post
Thanks
