Hi, Any advise is welcome, we are out of ideas what to do or to try. Three weeks ago our (now 6 weeks old) baby started having bloody stools. He was very fuzzy and restless with pains in his tummy. Stools were mucusy and liquid, When we switched to Nutramigen (hipoalergenic formula) everything...

Anyone encountered this problem: the breasts are filling up, I can feel the ants crawling along the side, the baby has been latching on perfectly (per lactation consultant), yet not a drop of anything is coming out, and I've had to start feeding her formula. She's four days old. I've just rented a...

I know there are people and institutions say that you should breastfeed exclusively until 6 months, but what do you do when an exactly 5 month old baby grabs your hand, and stuffs your toast (with cheez whiz) into her mouth? Do you feed when they seem ready to eat? You would think so. Around here...

I'm beginning to think that me eating tofu is giving my DS gas. Either that or broccoli. The local Chinese place makes the best tofu w/ broccoli but it seems that DS is very upset and cranky the day after I eat it. It could be a coincidence but I'm not sure. He only stools once every three...

The time is quickly coming to start introducing some 'real' food to DS. He will be six months old on February 11th. He sits well. I've made him a couple of Momsicles to distract him from my food at dinnertime and have fed him slushy BM off of a spoon. He seems to have a chewing motion, but some is...

My husband is from Germany. All his family is still there (We're in the US). He travels back there for business trips about once a year, and this year it will probably be in August. He wants to take the baby with him to drop off at his parents while he is there on business for a whole...

Did any of your bfed babies sleep in a crib/away from you at nights? How did you manage that? Thanks.

G'day oht nak 8-) Madeleina Venus (7 lb 7 ozs, 19.25") was born by a natural VBAC on Sat Nov 12th at 6:41 am after 3 hrs 20 mins of labor, including a speed down the freeway with my bum in the air trying not to push. No offense elizabeth, but I had no desire for a car birth 8-) She is beautiful...

******Re-post from misc.kids****** Barbara was moved from the makeshift overflow ICU at Grossmont Hospital (it's really their surgical recovery room) to a regular hospital room after midnight last night. She is disconnected from all the tubes, IVs, etc. and is able to be up and around. I came...

Don't ask me right now about statistics - apparently right now I am both bad doing it and worse reporting it. We are trying to figure out what the heck we are doing wrong--the bosses here have never seen the inside of an office or any employees, you know,. So, my well of expertise is, well, me!...

Ahh, it started so innocently, Moo boy started to play with a doll at a freinds house and I realised we didnt have a doll for him, I should look out for a nice one, maybe I should make one....its all escalated and now I have decided I need to make him a waldorf doll. Trouble is I can't find a...

I'm afraid I love my underwires - got to give some shape to my droopy breasts! But it has been so long since I wore one, and my nursing bras are too big now (I just hope my pre-breastfeeding bras are not too big - they were pretty tiny to begin to with!). I am paranoid about wearing an underwire...

I just bought a Bear River brand jogging stroller at Sam's Club on a whim. I've got it home, still unopened and am debating whether to return it. I'm not sure we'd use a jogging stroller (we don't use our regular stroller much, but she's only 3 mos), but it was a good deal! :) Anyway, wondering...

Following on from your posting on Breast Feeding and early onset (childhood Asthma), please take some time to look over this resource: www.visionhealth.co.uk . I'm starting to feel like a spokeswoman for the series, but I've received so much feedback, I really want to help get the word out about...

I just finished reading the book "Milk, Money, & Madness" and I wanted to know if the bf'ing attitude has changed for the positive in the US since the copy write date of 1995? I was a very interesting book and a really good read. But, the book was published after Clinton agreed to the WHO code,...

This is second hand as it happened to a freind of mine last week who's baby started to cry so she sat down in one of the IKEA rooms and very discreetly fed him. She noticd a man come over to look at the display and he seemed a bit showcked at her, she then watched him go over to teh IKEA staff, who...
