    @joy2611 I have a male masseuse that I visit 2-4 times a month. He is the best. It is a medical office and they do other physical therapy and chiro, so it is covered by my insurance 100%. It is the best thing ever. But the sex of the provider has nothing to do with enjoyment, if you like their moves.

    Second: Last night I found myself on the couch with a heating pad on my back and drinking a glass of prune juice.

    What the actual fuck.  I'm 87 years old.

    I'm only on page 1, and your post gave me all sorts of feels!  I'm sorry you have so much pain.

    @GypsySoul1112: The massage was medically necessary, but no one would've believed me!

    I had a massage a few years ago at this upscale spa in Center City Philadelphia.  It was ...bad.  It was a guy, he talked the whole time, and was too hard with all his movements. 

    The woman today, however?  AMAZING.  Now I know why people love massages.  She was also firm, but I needed that with my back muscles.  She also did some super cool movements to stretch out my back and neck. 
    So good to hear!! I used to get massages once a week when I was a competitive figure skater because I was perpetually sore. And injured. Now I just feel guilty splurging on them! But come vacation time in the Spring, you better believe Gypsy is getting a massage in Disneyworld :)

    2) I am still reeling from that BF'ing argument from last night. Ugh, some people just make me so angry and I just can't let it go. I can't wait to have my next baby so I can BF him/her for as long as possible and make people like Mrs Sept#s "uncomfortable".
    I really wanted to say not nice things but what is the point even?


    I also have two FFFCs:

    1) Now that I'm comfortable with it, I kind of enjoy whipping out my boob and NIP. I kind of feel like a badass BFing crusader every time I do. I'm not, I'm really just a mom feeding her baby, but the fact that people like MrsSept have such strong "opinions" about it and think it's okay to go spouting them off around the internet means I have to be more than just a mom feeding her baby. I have to stand up for my & my daughter's and every other nursing mom/baby/child's rights by not being ashamed and continuing to do it whenever, wherever, and however long I/we want. SO THERE. #powertotheb00bies #normalizebreastfeeding

    Also, anecdote: I went into the office about to pump today and a gentlemen I'm working with right now barged in approximately 30 seconds later. There is a big, red lettered sign that says "DO NOT ENTER, KNOCK FIRST" ... helloooooo! I, however, hadn't even started anything, so it was fine, but he immediately realized what he had done, and was SO flustered and embarrassed, I actually got a good chuckle out. :)) He's an older guy, and won't even mention/talk about my pumping because it makes him uncomfortable. (He isn't judging or anything, just doesn't want to talk/think about it, lol.)


    2) I have pretty much spent my entire work week on here and/or online holiday shopping. Oops. I work for my self/dad, so that's okay....right?
    You go girl!!! I have to admit I was a little nervous about BF'ing, NIP, and pumping at work. I guess I bought into the "secrecy" of it, like it was unacceptable to be exposed like that, literally and figuratively. I never experienced any negative attitudes or reactions from family, friends, or strangers, but I was still hesitant. DH was totally supportive of it, but he would always be looking over my shoulder to see if anyone was staring at my boobs and even though I know he was doing it for protective reasons, I guess it made me more reserved. Hopefully the next baby will be a more successful experience! Though I'm still proud of my 3 months EBF. :)

    @joy2611- Massages are totally health related appointments... the person who does mine I started going to for physiotherapy... just that I am so broken all she can do is massage and acupuncture

    @wine&amp;cupcakes - All the feels for you... mine has been out of control as well but related to my ME... I have to go to a clinical psych next week then get my head stuck in an MRI... that doesn't make me anxious at all!  As for the TTC part- I am convinced my body is so currently pissed at me that it wont let it happen... but until this is sorted I don't want to pursue the RE path.  As far as meditation goes I use Headspace and do yoga at home... also spend a lot of me time walking the dog/cleaning with my headphones on listening to educational podcasts so my brain doesn't liquify and deteriorate while not working.

    @Hippotooth-  I would totally do that for you... after living in my house for 4 years I finally printed off pics and placed in frames so we don't look like weirdos who have no family or fiends

    @Danascullyx - "But the sex of the provider has nothing to do with enjoyment, if you like their moves." I find this rings true for a lot in life :)


    FFFC- I keep trying to recreate foods that I miss from America and miserably failing... queso and crab rangoon are the latest fatalities... I blame the lack of "fake food" ingredients like velveeta.  Also my dessert fails have become so epic that my husband has told me to just stop trying (I dont even like sweets)

    Yes. It is very intimidating. And screw those nursing covers. I used to think I would get one of those but then I thought, "Hmm, would I really want to eat my lunch underneath a blanket with no fresh air?" I guess not.
    I actually used a swaddle blanket or nursing cover for awhile. TBH, it was for MY comfort. When I wasn't as good at latching, wanted to be discrete, and all that jazz, I preferred to at least get all set up with the cover, because I could focus on what I was doing without worrying about people staring.

    I do get it might make some people uncomfortable (because they're conservative or older, whatever) and I don't want to make those types of people uncomfortable (I don't give a shit about the people who think it's gross or wrong -- they can just GTFO). BUT, after a certain age, DD would kick and flail and it was way more work for both of us to try to nurse covered. So I just stopped bothering.

    BFing, NIP, pumping.... it IS intimidating. It took me some time to get comfortable with the whole thing -- because it's hard work. It's a learned skill. I didn't give birth and automatically know how to perfectly breastfeed. I put in a time and effort to acquire that skill, had some hurdles to overcome and did, and now I have continued to nurse & pump while working full time almost a full year later. (No plans to stop -- I regularly donate milk and hope to tandem nurse if/when we have #2) I'm proud and fortunate to have been able to do this for my daughter, and help those I've donated BM to, and I won't let anyone make me feel bad or weird about it!!

    Also @GypsySoul1112 -- 3 months EBF is wonderful! You should be proud!
    Thank you!! Yes, I'm totally with you on covering up for your own comfort. That's initially why I wanted one too. I just wish there was some easy way to be discreet about it. I think a swaddle blanket would be ok, just so my boobs aren't on full display. But at some point I'm going to have to say "Fcuk it, people can stare if they want, my baby needs to eat!".

    You know I pretty much stayed out of the UO thread mainly because the other ladies had it covered but now your bringing your shit into a different thread. Just stop. Multiple people have said you need take a step back from the situation but you keep coming back and reopening this discussion. You keep apologizing but your words mean NOTHING. It's the same shit over and over again.

    Get outta my head, dammit!!  :-)

    On NIP: I am part of a breastfeeding Facebook group and whenever a member gets flack for nip, the others stage a "nurse in" at that location (assuming it was the business raising a stink)

    I've been fortunate enough to never have had anyone side-eye me for it. Ironically, the place I felt the most uncomfortable nip was at the pediatrician office.

    But I worked damn hard on this and don't care what anyone else thinks.

    Hey ladies, sorry I have been a bit absent lately, but I'm back in time to gripe about something, lol!

    I have a lazy, 18-year-old co-worker (I work in a factory, mind you, welding metal) whose back supposedly hurt bad enough she went to the hospital on Thursday. She came back yesterday and they put her on "light duty" running a small machine. No big deal, they did that for me when I hyper-extended my elbow a month or so ago. Halfway through the day, they took her off that machine and put her training (verbally, because she "can't lift things") a new girl. Most of the time she was training, she was sitting on a bin that my parts were in, getting all up in the way, and laying her head down with her eyes closed.

    Then, my SUPERVISOR, of all people, asked if she wanted a chair. She got one of our forklift drivers to get her an office chair, and she got PAID to sit in that chair, doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, watching us work for 2 hours. Telling her things like "hang in there, the day's almost over".

    If she was hurting THAT bad and was THAT restricted in her movement, she should have been sent home. Period.

    Apologies for the excessive all-caps. o.o

    FFFE=/= dear diary. This was a dear diary. Her age has nothing to do with this story. I've known 36yo to fall asleep on the job sans injury (I'm assuming they gave her pain meds for her back injury. If you hurt so bad that you cant work, it seems likely they'll try and ease the pain).

    Ehh, sorry ladies. I misunderstood the thread intention.

    The reason I stated she was 18 is that she's just out of highschool and never had a manual-labor type job before, and complains that the work makes her sore (which it did me, as well, when I first started). But never-the-less, the post didn't belong here, so I'm not going to take it any further. My apologies.

    My confession is that I've gorged myself on pizza rolls and pie today, and have no desire to eat any real food. -_-
