Just thought I'd say a little hooray for Bobinogs, (a TV show aimed at toddlers/pre-schoolers here in the UK on CBeebies (a BBC channel for small kids)) before the whole world flames them! They had a feature on babies today, which started with 3 months old Cara. They showed her bathing, sleeping...

I was just wondering if your babies make a specific sound when they want feeding... When Jessica's hungry, she shouts Ungaaar!!! When she was first born and I was breastfeeding her, she'd make a cute ef ef ef sound, which i miss... now she just shouts ungaaar and munches :)

Hi My DD is now 4 and a half weeks. When she was first born I expresed a lot as well as breastfeeding, as she just didn't seem to get enough by breastfeeding, and I became concerned about her as her urine was becoming quite concentrated - fortunately nipple confusion was never an issue. I did...

I think this is the name of a product I saw recently - a reusable silicone breast pad that stops leaks . . ? Anyone have these? Do they work? Where did you find them? Thanks, Hannah

Moving right along . . . DS (2 months) has a few white dots inside of his lower lip. Looks almost like stuck-on spit up. They do scrape off with persistence. I expected patches with thrush, but these spots are small. My end of things isn't very helpful, or maybe it is? BF has been not painful...

I noticed that my milk from fridge seem to have a very strong smell. Is that usual? Is it possible...

Can anyone tell us if using a breast pump stimulates the same as direct feeding? We have an 9 day old fantastic placid little girl. My wife has always had sensitive nipples.....they have always been a no go area for me. Any stimulation leads to shooting pains, always has. She cant even have...

I was wondering if anyone here knows if it is okay to tan in a tanning bed while breastfeeding?
