Would Enfamil or Similac be good for my newborn baby girl? I’m a new mom (no I won’t breastfeed, don’t bring that up because I won’t). In terms of formula, which is better? My husband told me Enfamil is better than Similac. @Mummalove by Diajadwani

Much will depend on what your baby will take. I breastfed both my children, but kept formula around as a supplement, or ‘just in case'. Both times the hospital sent me home with a small canister of Similac. My firstborn would have none of it. He refused to take the Similac under any circumstances. So I switched to Enfamil and he accepted that. My second wouldn't take formula at all, so it was a good thing that I was blessed with a good supply of milk for her. Being a SAH mom also helped because I didn't have to worry about pumping or having formula in the house. This was in the late 70s, and there are many more choices available now than there were then, including options for lactose or soy intolerance or other allergies if needed. Nutritionally, both Similac and Enfamil are comparable, but they do taste different. So take your cue from your daughter. She will let you know what she likes.

Both Enfamil and Similac are reputable brands of infant formula and are nutritionally balanced for newborns. It's best to consult with your pediatrician to determine which formula is most suitable for your baby based on her specific needs and any potential allergies or sensitivities. Your pediatrician can provide personalized recommendations to ensure your baby receives the appropriate nutrition.

Our childhood plays a major role on how we will be as a child. There are many different kinds of parenting and we will try to discuss bit-by-bit everyday. हम एक बच्चे के रूप में कैसे होंगे, इसमें हमारा बचपन एक प्रमुख भूमिका निभाता है। पालन-पोषण कई प्रकार के होते हैं और हम प्रतिदिन थोड़ा-थोड़ा करके चर्चा करने का प्रयास करेंगे। Authoritarian Parenting अथोरिटीयन पेरैंटींग 1. Does any of these statements sound like your childhood? क्या इनमें से कोई भी कथन आपके बचपन जैसा लगता है? 2. Your parents believed kids should be seen and not heard. आपके माता-पिता का मानना था कि बच्चों को देखा जाना चाहिए, सुना नहीं जाना चाहिए। 3. When it comes to rules, they believed it's "my way or the highway." जब नियमों की बात आती है, तो उनका मानना था कि यह "मेरा रास्ता या राजमार्ग" है। 4. They didn't take your feelings into consideration when you were a child जब आप बच्चे थे तो उन्होंने आपकी भावनाओं पर ध्यान नहीं दिया 5. Your parents have often uttered the words "because I said so" when you as a child asked questions and they never explained reasons behind the rules. जब आप एक बच्चे के रूप में प्रश्न पूछते थे तो आपके माता-पिता अक्सर "क्योंकि मैंने ऐसा कहा था" शब्द कहते थे और उन्होंने कभी भी नियमों के पीछे के कारण नहीं बताए। Is this the parenting style you had as a childhood. Comment so that we can discuss more क्या आपके बचपन में पालन-पोषण की यही शैली थी? टिप्पणी करें ताकि हम और अधिक च#parenting्चा कर#childhood#childhoodmemoriesें #parentingstyle # # # #adulthood #life

I have gone through my child's death because of premature delivery. My husband is blaming me for that and taking a divorce from me. My all inlaws are against me. After marriage my husband and in laws started mentally torturing me .Nowadays I am dealing with lots of depression and stress. I am suffering sleepless nights. Please help me. How can I overcome the depression and stress caused by my husband blaming me for our child's premature death and my in-laws' mental torture, while dealing with sleepless nights and the threat of divorce?

I'm deeply sorry to hear about the immense pain and suffering you're experiencing. t’s crucial to prioritize your mental health and well-being during this incredibly time.Establish a strong support system by reaching out to friends or family members who can offer emotional support, and consult with a lawyer to understand your rights regarding the divorce and potential legal support against the mental torture.Set clear boundaries by limiting contact with people contributing to this stress and create a comforting space for yourself, focus on future,small achievable goals.Prioritize self-care by creating a calming bedtime routine to improve your sleep quality,Incorporate mindfulness meditation and relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises to manage stress.Journaling your thoughts and feelings can be therapeutic, and practicing daily gratitude can help shift your focus towards positive aspects of your life. Pl remember healing takes time and you deserve compassion. Stay strong
First of all, please inform your family about what all is happening to you in your husband's home.. please don't hide anything. Mental stress is always fatal for the baby in the womb. How insanely toxic are the people who were troubling you even during the time of pregnancy. Also, your first focus should be you now. Please dont lose yourself in pleasing others. Make your husband understand in the presence of your Folks. And take a final decision. Never settle in the home where you fail to get basic respect. Life is not just about a toxic marriage.

Hi I want to lose my weight and please help me to motivate myself consistent. Guide me to lose weight bcoz am a mother of 14months old
Hi there, I hope you are well. - Motivation will usually last for a few days or weeks, however, discipline can last forever. - To lose weight, you will have to bring in discipline in your daily routine. - You need to prepare yourself mentally as well as physically. - Stay determined that you won't give up and start by making small changes in your routine. - Start by incorporating more fibre in the diet. Eat two servings of fruits, a bowl of salad for lunch as well as dinner daily. - Avoid packaged, ultra-processed and refined foods. - Eat in portions. - Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water daily. - Add protein to each of your meals, even snacks. - Have mid-meals or healthy snacks. - Start your morning with handful nuts, or seeds. - Keep a tab on your salt, sugar, and oil intake. - Have home-made meals that are easier to digest. - Get at least 7-8hrs of sleep on a regular basis. - Go for a walk at least 4 times a week. - Manage stress levels my meditation and yoga. I hope this helps ✨
