Check ins?

[Deleted]

Since the breastfeeding board is easier to find on pro boards than it was on the bump it might be nice to have a few check ins. Not sure what traffic would be like whether they'd be weekly or monthly or what.

What do you think?

I thought maybe
Newborn to 6 weeks. The steep learning curve where everyone needs the most help.
6 weeks to 6 mos but a lot changes in this time period.
6 mos to one yr
And extended nursing 1+ years.
Or however you want.

Thoughts?

Check-ins are a nice way to connect. I've been lurking the extended bf threads, waiting to be able to participate. I can't believe it's looking like I'll be able to join that check in in a few more weeks!

Ditto flcl. My DD is a little over 10 months old so I lurk on the extended bf thread, but don't quite fit in yet.

I love the idea of weekly check ins! Nice to bond with each other

I like the idea of more check-ins since I don't 'qualify' for the current ones.

Ditto.

I love the check ins! I've been posting the extended check in weekly on Wednesdays.

I'd be interested!

I love checkins too! I have been posting a MSPI/food allergy checkin on Mondays.

I like the check in's. I find it's a good way to get to know each other. I currently post to the extended BF and MSPI allergy.

I would love one as well!

I'd definitely join a check-in. Would love to support/commiserate

Looks like @nunzchucks posted the 6mos to a year check in.
Who wants to cover the 6 weeks to 6 mos or should that one be 6 weeks to 3 mos--still lots of struggles esp with going back to work? and 3 mos to 6 mos separate?

We could make it a rule or suggestion that once someone starts the post the check in that the first or last person to reply to the check in posts the next check in. lol! that way everyone has to get involved
