OAL by
E
OK, I've read that some of you have great management ideas for OAL. What
are some of these? My DD is now 8w3d and I always feel like I am either
drowning her or me. I am tired of waking up soaking wet; having to decide
on what shirt to wear determined by how much leakage will be obvious;...

Thinking about stopping by

I'm thinking about stopping BF DS when he gets to one year (a month and a

DS is allergic to milk to an extent that I can't consume anything with milk

Foremilk question by
Alphawave
A Breastfeeding 101 question here... about when during a feeding does the
milk transition away from foremilk? We've been having a little OAL over
here and I've been expressing into a cloth whenever we get a choking
spray, but I'm never really sure how long to do it. Should I just do it
until the...

[OT] When Does the Shedding Slow Down? by
Belphoebe
I'm feeling nostalgic for that suspended hair loss during pregnancy. I knew
that around three months post-partum, I could expect the hair loss to return
with a vengeance, returning to the amount of hair I'd have had if I'd been
shedding all along. So I was bracing myself for it, and it started...

washing nursing pad... by
Jen
I am sorry that it might sound like a stupid question: how do you wash the
nursing pad?
I usually soak the pads with my bra into a soapy water for a while, then
raise they with clear water for couple times, then hang it. However, I
couldn't let them dry under the Sun 'cos my building won't allow...

Some opinions on hospital policy, please... by
[email protected]
Hello, I've been primarily lurking here for the past few years and posted
a couple of times. I'm expecting my first any day now (already 3cm
dilated, but not due until the 7th). I went and did all the classes at my
hospital including breastfeeding, baby care, and prepared childbirth. This

FAO-Joy by
Jodie
Hi! I noticed you are on webtv, too. I recognize you from a couple of
the alt. ngs.
How do you copy and paste. When I respond to posts, my copy and paste
just looks like part of my text. Is there an easier way to do it?
Do you access this ng from "discuss" on the home page?
TIA,

Bre@st Preference by
Phoebe & Allyson
I put Caterpillar on the slow-flow side last night, and fed
her until she refused to latch anymore. (She ate about as
long as she normally does on the fast-flow side, but I
suspect she got a lot less milk.) Sure enough, 5 minutes
later, she started making "hungry" cues. So I put her back
on that...

someone *this long* to come up with this idea.

Nursing Newborn Twins: Help needed for a friend please by
KC
I have no advice on the twin thing since I never did that, but I have
had to supplement with a syringe because the baby lost over 10% of
weight and was dehydrated, so I will comment.
IMHO 1oz after each feed is excessive and will probably kill bf. On
my first baby I did the 1 oz after every feed...

Any nursing scrappers? by
iphigenia
Being the dedicated scrapbooker I am, you'd think I'd have covered this
ground long ago, but I haven't. Part of the problem is that I haven't really
any good photos of DS nursing. I'm just wondering if anyone has done
scrapbook pages about their nursing relationship and if so, what sorts of
layouts...

I have to vent by

Ok, I would do this in mkp, but I don't know too many of the people over
there now, and I know more of you would understand my need to vent over
this. I vented about something at the navy wive's website I'm a member of a
while ago, and since then, they've created a "Child and Mother" forum. ...

Follow up on getting back to breast by

I posted a few days ago about a friend who was having trouble getting her
