going insane thinking about being ryan’s long time serious partner
i have a huge soft spot for the cool couple, you know, like aloof and unbothered. a lil intimidating.
both of you being standoffish and kind of scary individually, but super sweet and domestic to each other
no one really makes you laugh or smile until ryan arrives and you’re suddenly like :)))) 🦋🧚‍♀️💐🌈🦄💝
lots of inside jokes that make you roll over laughing while everyone stands there watching like ? are they okay ? and you have to promise them it’d be funny if they were there
so married, transparent in everything that you do
your identical sense of humor, warped into a unique shape so specific to both of you from being around each other this long
always looking for one another in every room
(love this visual of seeing something really gross and saying ‘where’s my boyfriend? i need to cleanse my sight, he’s eye candy’
‘ry???’
his head popping up somewhere in the crowd
‘yeah?’
‘whew, nothing. you look good!’ sending him a wink and a thumbs up)
Proud Couple who knows they’re fucking hot
bitches get a bf and won’t bfing quiet
comfort and easiness like you’ve never know before when he’s around (especially if you have social anxiety)
you’re best friends but also super in love :)

Advice on BF journey.
I really want to ring the ABA hotline to get some advice but apparently my anxiety over phone calls is winning over that.
But… as I’ve had comments on my post as well as some messages from people saying they went through similar I’m just wanting to get an idea of what you’d do.
Lucy’s latch has improved so much. She’ll latch and stay latched without all the fussing of a few weeks ago (she’s 5weeks today).
The last two weekly weighs she’s gained about 180grams. Because she’s now had consistent gain we don’t have another weight check for another month.
We were told to just continue as we were. This is BFing then a 60ml top up of EBM (as well as expressing).
She’s started vomiting though after the top up. This last feed she only had 30mls of the top up before the vomiting started. So we stopped at that.
At night so I can actually get some sleep, I’ve been only expressing, whilst Aaron gives her the top up (it’s been a full feed quota according to weight, as on a half feed top up she still lost weight a few weeks back). She doesn’t vomit at night with only the EBM bottle without the BF prior. In fact the last two nights she hasn’t resettled until she’s had a 90ml EBM bottle. (I know some of this I’ve previously said).
Would you say the BF and then top up leading to vomiting is from over feeding?
If this is the case should we try dropping the day time EBM top up back down? Or should we try just demand feeding rather than the 3 hourly routine we’ve been on for weeks now? Should we just continue as we have been and take the vomiting as coincidence.
I’m scared to change as I don’t want Lucy to start losing weight/have stagnant weight again. I obviously want to see progress though, and don’t want her vomiting from over feeding, if this is what it is. If I stop or reduce now and it has a negative impact on Lucy we won’t know for a month.
We actually own a good set of baby scales (courtesy of Harriet’s weight needing to be monitored closely at times) BUT I’m scared to pull them out as PTSD from Hatt is manifesting in Lucy even though I know their situations are completely different. I’m scared if I use the scales once I will become obsessive.
What would you do?

Speaking of which, the confession item 'Preserved Flower' uses a tool slot instead of item slot, so you may need to have an empty tool slot when you exit your home in case you have trouble getting it from Jeff's....Like me 🤣
After you got your first flower, Jeff will start selling it for 1000 G at his shop so you can start dating/BFing everyone if you want!
Yes!
You read it right.
You can multiple date and BF every normal marriage candidates in this game, just like in RF4!
In fact, there is even a trophy for that, where you date/bf everyone and then choose to marry/bf any of them.
I have no problem getting my confession accepted by Doctor, Rick, Brandon and Gray at the same day, so it seems that the acceptance rate won't get harder too even if you already have become BFF with someone else.
After you have become lover or best friend with any of them, you can start raising their LP again and the LP parameter will be visible, with heart beside their portrait, for your Best Friend too.
And since you can date everyone at the same time now, you can see everyone's lover events, 2 new events for each normal candidates, without having to break up first like in ANB, SoS or 3oT!
The townspeople and Won won't give any response when you show the Preserved Flower to them though, and so far I haven't gotten any comment from my BFs, their rivals or any other townspeople after my confessions marathon.
I am looking forward to see how the Festival or Rival Events will proggress now...Especially if I date and BF both at the same time....I wonder if the rival event will still play then...🤔

Way to rock your VBAC!! I was just wondering how you chose not to breastfeed? I’m hoping to be a mother-baby nurse someday and I feel like all you ever hear is “breast is best”, but I thought it would be interesting to hear another perspective. And how do you deal with other people trying to push if? Are your nurses respectful of your decision?
Hi friend! Thank you!!! I am so lucky. This pregnancy sucked 😂 but delivery was wonderful.
So I just want to say, I think breastfeeding is wonderful. I respect and admire any mom who chooses to do that or exclusively pump (especially working moms). Everyone says breast is best and sure I agree with that nutritionally. I also know it’s not always best for mom and sometimes it’s NOT always best for baby. I tried to BF my first because “that’s what you’re supposed to do and it’s free”. It was absolutely awful and part of the reason I struggled hard with PPD. He wouldn’t latch, even with a shield. The nurses helped me but each one had a different opinion about it which made my head spin. The lactation consultant said it was my fault he wouldn’t latch because of my nipples. They made me pump nonstop at the hospital so I spent my 4 days there either pumping or trying to get him to latch. He lost well over a pound even with the nurses supplementing with formula while he was in the nursery. I cried everytime we tried to nurse and just stared at him while pumping for hours the first few days at home (and got maybe 5oz total over 1 week that I also spilled). I finally couldn’t take it anymore and my husband (who had been pro-BF just because it was free) told me to stop and just do formula. So I did. Gavin drank an entire bottle, locked eyes with me and I remember just feeling like he was saying “it’s cool, mom. I’ll be fine” and felt like we bonded for the first time in a week. It took months for him to get back on track with gaining weight. He was diagnosed failure to thrive at least 10 times. And now he is a super fast growing, super smart, curious, thriving 4 year old who impresses the pants off adults and his teachers. I see him in preschool with all these kids and you can’t tell who was BF and who was FF because in the end it doesn’t matter. For example, my neighbor exclusively pumped for her kids and they are sick ALL the time. Gavin is rarely sick. I see my kid and how healthy and happy and how he is thriving and I don’t regret doing formula at all.
No one ever really pushed me back then except the nurses and lactation consultant. She was a bitch about it and made me feel terrible because I was “failing”. The nurses were nice but it was awful listening to 10+ opinions about my nipples. And a girl I worked with was very pro BF (and anti-vaccine 👀 ) and I wanted to be like her because she was a new mom and awesome at it so I listened to her (not about the vaccines I’m not an idiot 😂).
So once I got pregnant again I started thinking about BFing. I went back and forth for months and finally decided I would be open to trying at the hospital but I wanted to have formula nearby because I was not pumping while there and wasting my time not holding her and I was not going to let her suffer like Gavin did. I also knew I was at risk for a c section and how hard that could be for me mentally and physically and knew I didn’t want to deal with that plus possibly struggling to nurse. I explained to the nurses my experience with it and PPD and they were all very understanding. I did get my VBAC obviously and when we were doing skin to skin (which I didn’t get with my son so I was cherishing every single second) the nurse said if you want to try Bf now would be a great time. I can’t even explain the dread and anxiety that hit me. Here I am holding my brand new beautiful baby girl who had a PERFECT delivery after months of struggling being pregnant and I started dreading the next few minutes and wanted her off of me. I knew that wasn’t normal so I said “actually, I think I am just going to do bottles” and that was that. The nurse seemed surprised because I changed my mind but she was not rude or anything. I immediately relaxed and we continued skin to skin. Every nurse so far has been 100% respectful. The lactation consultant (a different one thank god) came in and the first thing she said was “I know you’re not nursing and that’s totally fine. I just wanted to give you some helpful info on bottle feeding and breast care after birth” and it was super informative and she was really nice and not judgmental. My OBGYN (who delivered her!!!) also asked and when I said formula he said “ok great” and went over breast health too and that was it. He knows my history of anxiety and PPD and he could see how happy I was that we had a very successful vbac. His main priority is me.
I knew if I wanted to thrive as a mother this time around, I couldn’t BF or pump. I didn’t want to spend a single second crying or panicking about her weight. Gavin has got to help feed her twice now which I think is helping tremendously with his promotion to big brother. He wouldn’t have been able to do that right away if I was BFing. He needs to be involved in everything (just his personality) and I need to also be available for him and make sure he knows I’m still his mom too! Sitting there pumping and trying to nurse for hours instead of spending time with him at home would not be good for him (or me) in this transition as a family of 4. Plus I work full time and I need to be able to go back clear headed and not feeling like a failure.
I do not regret my decision. Maybe she would have had a perfect latch and I could have BF her until college. Who knows. But I made a decision and I know it was the right one for us. Two days old and she is fucking thriving. My reasons are selfish but as a mom who had PPD and struggled for 2 years, I am okay with that.
I don’t know if you’re in the US? But if you become a l&d or maternity nurse, just be respectful of the moms decision. If she does want to BF, remember she also has other nurses giving their opinion and her head is probably spinning. Remember she might be sobbing when no one is in the room while trying to nurse. Remember formula is OKAY. Seriously. It’s not the worst thing my kids will eat in their lifetime (hello, happy meals 😂). Don’t be judgmental. Focus on helping the mom regardless of your opinions. I am sure some of these nurses are silently judging me but their care and kindness has not reflected this and that is what is important.

In honor of the World Breastfeeding Week, here are some interesting facts about BFing: . • Producing breast milk consumes 25% of the body’s energy; the brain only uses 20% by comparison. So, all new mamas, you know how we all get VERY tired with a newborn? That’s WHY! . • Almost 75% of all moms produce more milk in their right breast, whether they are right- or left- handed. Totally true for me! When I have to pump, I get twice as much from my right side! Is it true for you too?! . • Mom’s body is constantly making the perfect milk for baby. Milk changes its nutritional profile as baby grows: milk made for a 3 month old is different than for a 9 month old, so it is still beneficial for the baby even at 12 months. Milk can even change day to day: for example, water content may increase during times of hot weather and baby-sickness to provide extra hydration. . • While every woman is technically physiologically built to breastfeed, not everyone CAN. It is NOT as simple as a “supply/demand” mechanism, a number of things from inflamed thyroid ( which is very common after pregnancy), to low iron supplies can be a cause for a problem. Babies can sense that too! Researchers believe that some babies self-wean because they feel that bf-ing is not good for mom’s body any more. 🤗 Isn’t that cool?! . I am breastfeeding, but I had babies where we had to supplement too - soooo much harder to deal with bottles! Bottle feeding mamas, you are amazing! . Did you breastfeed or bottle feed? Any cool facts you know about either one? #worldbreastfeedingweek #breastfeeding #bottlefeeding ~~~~~~ В честь Всемирной Недели Грудного Вскармливания, немножко интересных фактов о ГВ! . • тело тратит 25% энергии на выработку молока. Для сравнения, при интенсивной работе мозга используется 20% энергии. Новые мамочки, теперь понятно, почему мы все так устаём?! ( и плохо соображаем 😂) . • почти 75 % мам вырабатывают больше молока в правой груди, не зависимо от того, левши они или нет. 100% правда для меня! Когда я сцеживаю молоко, с правой груди его в 2 раза легче собрать! А у вас как?! . • организм мамы вырабатывает идеальное молоко для ребёнка в разные периоды жизни. Например, молоко, ⤵️ (at Manhattan, New York)

One of my friends stopped bfing her first child because she wanted her to sleep better, then bf her second for longer because she slept better than the first. Then as soon as the second child started sleeping badly she switched straight to formula. Idk it just irks me, its selfish
It bothers you that another woman that isn't yourself doesn't want to use her body to feed her child when she can perfectly do so with a bottle and formula? I wish we could trade places so my problems could actually not be my problems 🤷‍♀️Peach

PP about it worries you that the BFing thing... That's YOU. It was easy for you to still bond while bottle feeding. Theres a host of other problems that can arise that can cause just bottle feeding to not get a bond. Guilt shame etc for one, but its hard. It was easy for you and thats super it worked so well for you! But not everyone mom bonds wih baby while pregnant, and then to not be able to BF too, thats just one more hit against you when youre already down on yourself.

Lucy is a month old today. I’m not quite sure how this milestone snuck up so fast.
We had a health centre appointment this afternoon and she is finally above her birthweight! She was 3.1kg. To be fair she was only 45g under a week ago, but still. We finally made it. It only took a month. I love our health nurse. We have seen her since Riley was a newborn, so knows our history, and therefore anxieties.
We’ve had a few really hot days these last couple of weeks (thankfully a reprieve for a few days at the moment) so to know she’s gained 150g in 7days despite this was nice.
We’ve still been doing 20minute BF followed by a 60ml top up. For the past 3-4days she has started vomiting after the top up though. At night we haven’t been doing the breast feed just a straight feed of expressed milk via bottle, as this whole 2 hour to feed to 1 hour sleep wasn’t sustainable. Aaron’s been so good and he gets up to feed Lucy over night whilst I simultaneously get up to express and it means we’re back in bed within half an hour. She doesn’t vomit when it’s just the expressed milk without a BF beforehand.
With that we think that she’s now possibly over feeding with the extra top up which means she’s hopefully getting a much more effective suck. Her latch has been so much more deep and strong the past 3-4 days also. When expressing after a feed, both sides I get roughly the volume (I’ve been alternating sides so I can gauge how much she gets from one side a feed, instead of swapping sides during every feed). Today though which ever side I feed on I’m consistently getting about 30mls less when expressing post feed. With the vomiting after both BF and then top up, I’m seriously hoping that it’s a sign that she’s finally making progress with BFing! Her eyes are much bigger than her stomach, and despite obviously being full as shown by the vomiting, she would keep downing feeds no matter the volume.
We’ve been really busy this fortnight. Riley turned 9, and Fletch turned 5! I will make a post at some point dedicated to them. I’m just wanting to keep track of her feeding stuff so hopefully one day when the effort that went into this is a distant memory I can remind myself of how hard I worked (hopefully for a positive gain). Trying to stay positive.

I'm the BF anon. I recall the HHR stuff. I just hate presumptions based on an unconfirmed tweet SH was there. I couldn't feed my first kid (birth trauma). Chose not to feed kid 2 (very hard decision). My boss works 12 hour days on her feet and pumps. To say SH shouldn't be at a 4 hour play because she's BFing is nasty mom policing and it's pathetic. No matter how much I'm not a fan of SH. Thanks for letting me vent!
You're welcome, nonny. I still don't buy that she was there (or if she was, it wasn't the romantic date the tweeter claimed it was [which is why it says a lot that she deleted those tweets]). But it's not like *every* mother hooks her nipple to her baby or a pump 24/7. She could've pumped extra milk for that night, which is also a normal thing to do. Or maybe, like you, she choose not to feed, or she can't for a personal or medical reason.
