Starting solids early? by
[email protected]
Hello -
My 2nd baby will be 5 months old on 11/11. She was 9lbs at birth and
now weighs about 17 pounds and is 26 inches. At her 4 month checkup my
ped. said I could "try to wait until 6 months to start solids but she'd
probably need to start earlier because physiologically she's like a 6
month...

Why Not? by
Amy
The thread about solids got me thinking, if the doctor says to start
her on solids at 4 months (as mine did), why not? Is the fact that she
has gained very slowly (didn't regain birth weight until 4 weeks) a
consideration? Choking? I guess I'm just wondering why I should
resist trying cereal...

Unsupportive family by
PFMom
How many people here are extended breastfeeders? I have a 19mo old. I
just found out he has some decay on his back front teeth. The dentist
says I don't need to stop nursing, just to keep his teeth clean.
I talked to my sister and she yelled at me for still nursing. She said

Having watched me stuff Thermacare heat pads in my bra many times to deal
with clogs, my 24 month old daughter has once again gotten into the
pantyshields and is sticking them to her little chest.

nursing shirts? by
oregonchick
Is it "essential" or very helpful to purchase tops that are specific to
breastfeeding? I don't have any, and I was just thinking about how handy
would it be to just lift up the shirt? Do you invest in "nursing" clothes
or just adapt?

partial plugged duct? by
Anne Rogers
is there such a thing? I've had a full area on my right boob for 48hrs now,
but it's not getting worse, or better, there seems to be some milk coming
out of that area, but it hasn't fully emptied. It's mildly sore, but not
greatly.
Any ideas?

AFand sore nipples by
al
AF returned last month and was accompanied by very sore nipples. It was
almost as bad as nursing a newborn (pain wise...but there was no
rawness). Poor little guy wasn't happy with the decreased output, which
didn't help. It just made him want to nurse more frequently. And from
the return of...

best place to buy nursing bras? by
oregonchick
I am due in December and only have 2 really crappy nursing bras. I bought
them from Motherhood maternity and find that the shoulder straps have
stretched to the point that they slip off my shoulders and there is no more
adjustability in them, they're as tight as they'll go.
I am currently a 38D...

We arent' planning on anything but EBM until 6 months, but starting to
