I breastfeed my 2 year old until she was ready to stop at 15 months and then I had a horrible case of engorgement..OUCH! I am talking Amazon woman. My five month old lost 15 oz. at her three month check up so I was forced to start supplementing formula bottlefeedings earlier than I wished. Next...

What can I do about my 1 month old son, who is breastfed and supplemented with formula. He only poops once every 2 or 3 days and in between, spends most of his time turning red/purble due to straining and pushing. he does pass a lot of gas. The pushing and arching back and squirming makes it...

Kamron has been very constipated this past week and he has only been eating pureed apples and pears. When he finaly went it was solid, and was bloody (from straining), and was followed by lots of the runs! I have stopped ugiving him bannanas so far, as they constipated my other kids when they were...

We had our weight check, and my daughter has gained 7 ounces in the past two weeks! The pediatrician wants to do another weight check in 2 weeks, to keep an eye on things. She's also talking up testing for celiac disease, doing a thyroid check, and something else. I told her that we had a...

Hi everyone, Well I have a few ? and need a bit of advice. Emma is 16wks to-day. She was born on the 91st centile at 37wks and after sitting on the 50th centile till about 10wks has dropped down to the 25th. She was 7lb 7.5oz at birth and now weighs 11lb 8oz. So averaged out she has just about...

( I don't think my original subject line was specific enough) Michael Jude is 10 weeks now and still co-sleeping with us. I nurse him to sleep each night as it seems to be the olnly way to get him to drift off into never-never land. I'll deal with getting him to sleep on his own later on...

Does anyone have or use one? I've seen them on several natural baby type sites and I think I might order one. Xander has become easily distracted while nursing and has done the string cheese thing to my nipple more than once in the last few days. I just thought I'd ask here first to see if anyone...

I'm so glad to hear that she is going to be o.k.! My husband has asthma too, so I hav been finding this especially terrifying. There are so many good medicines for prevention nowadays; I am sure they will find something that will prevent this from happening again. Please let Barbara know that I...

If this is a growth spurt, I will be relieved. My DS has been eating approximately every 45 minutes (during the day) for the last 2 days. I'm becoming exhausted, and nothing soothes him like nursing. Part of me is a bit concerned that he's overeating. He is already almost 18 pounds at 3 months,...

DD is doing well. Her weight is up to 10.5 - 11 lbs (up from 8 lbs 6 oz at birth) and bf is no longer as difficult. You guys are right - it does get easier. A couple things we're still working on: -- She still has periods of constant nursing where she'll nurse every 30 - 60 mins for 3 hours or so,...

My baby had diarrhea for a month. Since then, I notice her tummy rumbles big time when I am nursing her, sometimes a couple of hours after nursing. The gas generated makes her very uncomfortable. Is this normal? What are the possible causes? Is there anything I can do to make it better? Please...

The hormones are driving me nuts. I am not sure if it's BFing hormones or PP hormones. It does not take much to make me weepy and I am having hot flashes. I am driving myself and DH nuts! It's not PPD. I'm just very ultra-sensitive. Most of all--I feel extemely happy to be a mom to 2 wonderful...

My 18-month-old daughter, who nurses on demand when she's not in daycare, now wants me to nurse her toy bears and put shoes on them. I couldn't find any references to this type of thing in the baby books and was wondering if other toddler parents out there are experiencing this sort of thing.
