Intussusception & bf by Irish Marie
Hi all I was reading through the 'Breast is Best' book and came across a section in it that outline 'some' reasons that might put you off bf. Mostly they are fairly daft and easily overcome but there is one that has alarm bells in my head. It mentions that Intussesception is more common in...

Work by Irish Marie
Well I went back to work today. Dh looked after Liam until 4pm and then all 3 children went to creche, they got on great. I managed to pump 2 5ozs bottles and will pump a little tonight but it's not enough to feed him, he needs 4 bottles, so it looks like I have to keep combined feeding up. I'm...

"Phoebe & Allyson" wrote in message ... I think this doesn't, but... We nursed, I stood Caterpillar up on my lap to see if she'd burp, and at least an ounce (measured by the "pour water on the counter until it looks like the same amount"...

5 months by Irish Marie
Hi all I know I have been quiet lately, I've been lurking :-) Well Liam is 5 months today and we are still in the breastfeeding game.........albeit not 100% of the time, but most of the time that I am with him I will nurse rather than give him the bottle. Last night we were both ill, and he spent...

Thanks for answering qs by Irish Marie
Sorry I meant to update and say thanks sooner to all those who replied to my last couple of posts. The pain in my breast has eased off so I think that it must have been a plugged duct. The two main culprits I suspect were the bra that I had on the other morning, it is too tight and has a very...

Painful lumpy breast by Irish Marie
Hi all Well we had a baby son on the 2nd August, Liam Michael, he weighed 9lbs 15ozs. He latched on within 10 mins of birth and it was all going quite well up until today. Obviously I had my insecurities and confusions, like which side had I fed him with last and had he been on long enough. But...

Foul-smelling poop by Irrational Number
I don't think I bargained for this disgusting poop when I started Pillbug on solids, did I??? Who'da thunk a teeny bit of banana and pear here and there would have such an effect? Beginning weeks, I thought his poop smelled like buttermilk. Then, they started smelling like dried breastmilk, but...

Semi-retiring from the newsgroup... by Irrational Number
Hello ladies, I want to thank you all for a wonderful, supportive seven months! I really could not have kept breastfeeding Pillbug for this time without your help, direct and indirect. Through your posts, I found out so much of what to expect and go through in order to have a good BF...

dairy causing eczema? by Irrational Number
So, based on what I've read here (especially Phoebe's posts), I've decided to stop all dairy to see if that helps Pillbug's eczema. He has had mild eczema for awhile now, off and on. Last Friday I had a wisdom tooth pulled and the dentist said to eat a lot of calcium to rebuild the bone in the...

foul-tasting vitamin drops by Irrational Number
Pillbug's pediatrician started him on the combination vitamin/iron/fluoride drops, which taste really foul (actually, I don't mind, but Pillbug hates it). The first couple of times, he was stunned and I blew on his face (learned from this NG) to make him swallow. This morning, though, he...

redness on breast by Irrational Number
I have what looks like an early bruise on the outside of my left breast, except it's not a bruise because it's looked like that for 2 days now. It's reddish purple and hurts kind of like a welt. There is a slight bump. I don't have any clogged ducts, I don't think. Any idea what this could be? ...

supportive coworkers by Irrational Number
I work in a computer lab with five men. I was sort of worried about pumping at work, but today, my first day back, was totally awesome! I had scouted around the office, but there's really no place to pump. Bathroom is out, no offices I can use. The lab is completely wide open, except for some...

pumping logistics by Irrational Number
So, how do you all do it? My pediatrician tells me to pump after every feeding. Sounds good in the abstract, but after a feeding, I have to entertain the Pillbug, or change him, or something comes up. By the time I'm ready to pump, it's no longer right "after" the nursing. -- Anita -- Mommy to...

thyroid problem by Irrational Number
I have a thyroid problem. All of the treatment options contraindicate breastfeeding. Am I stupid for wanting to put them off until Rocky weans? He's 16 months old, so most people think weaning is not a problem. But, he loves nursing. We still nurse at least 5x a day. -- Anita --
