How do you know when to switch from one breast to the other? I have a baby who cannot drain one breast at most feedings. I want to make sure both sides' milk supply stays up but I also want to ensure my infant is getting the hindmilk in each breast as well. At first I was just allowing 10 minutes...

I have a three month old (two month premature) and we are just starting to get in the hang of breastfeeding. I have been tempted many times to quit but know how important it is to my preemie. A couple frustrating issues have just developed: 1) feeding more frequently now that I am feeding on...

Hi, I was wondering what your favorite nursing bras are, and what you would recommend. Any comments? Karen

I don't know if this is a dumb question or not--but do decongestants such as Sudafed tend to lessen milk supply? I am wondering because I have a cold and am hesitant to take anything, but would gladly take them if there is no risk. Karen DD 9/3/02 DS 1/2/06

My 2 month old DS has an ear infection and is now on antibiotics. I want to make sure I do everything I can to prevent thrush while he is on the antibiotics. Any tips? I started eating yogurt, but that was all I could think of. Karen

My DS (2 1/2 months) usually nurses for 10-15 min on each side during one feeding. Starting yesterday he started pulling off at 2-5 minutes. I thought he was just messing around so I put him back on, and he would suck for 10 sec and pull off again. Lather, rinse, repeat, he gets mad and starts...

I just had DS 2 weeks ago, and he nurses roughly every 2-3 hrs, more like 2 hrs during the day, and 3 during the night. Since it takes about 45 min to an hour per nursing session, the schedule is really grueling! When does the frequency of feedings go down? I'm just wondering if someone has a...

My 11-month old son has bitten me and drawn blood while nursing a few days ago. Now I have painful scabs on both breasts. Today at work it really hurt while I was pumping, and then I noticed one breast had started bleeding again, and to top it all off, I barely squeezed out an ounce of milk...

Hi, all - I seem to remember some discussion a while back about the availability of Breastmilk from a Milk Bank, and wondered if anyone else knows what I'm talking about. I need to know if there's anything in the vicinity of North Carolina - I've just met a couple who had a baby via a surrogate,...

Hi, all! This last week has been tough for us; DH & I both fought off a cold bug, but my DD did NOT. She came down with a cold, and had the nighttime Croupy cough to go with it...we saw the Ped, and she said it's going around, not to worry, and just to make sure she rested & got plenty of fluids....

I was alerted to this article on an email group I'm part of....I was AMAZED and greatly disappointed to read the following: "The August 2003 issue of Real Simple magazine, currently on newstands, contains an article titled "20 Time Wasting Rules to Break Now." (page 136) What's one of the rules...

GRRRRRR!! I've just opened up my Parent's magazine, and I'm already furious. I'm sure I'll have more to be ****ed at by the time I finish, but I wanted to give folks the Heads-up. I'm going to be writing to the editors, and I wanted the bfing community here to know about it first. Page 68 has a...

Hi again everyone, Thanks again for all your notes about my being asked to move to the back of a store while nursing. A little detective work showed me that the woman who asked me to move was actually the store manager. I figured under those circumstances, writing the manager wouldn't do me any...
