You have all been so remarkably wonderful and encouraging with my breastfeeding concerns. I'm hoping you can direct me to a newsgroup where I can post about general things such as baby acne, sleep schedules etc... What are your faves? thanks, lisa

Flexril My doc told me he could give it to me if I really wanted him to...I'm having a nasty nasty flare up of my firbromyalgia and can hardly move my right arm. Hugs Karlee in Kansas ~~

I was at the mall a couple days ago and I found the best little nursing area. I was so happy. It was a big enclosed area for kids and Moms to rest. It had comfy couches all around and a rug for babies to crawl on. It had toys for older kids to play on and baby books all over. Lots of germs too I'm...

Over the last couple of weeks I've been having panic attacks. I have suffered with them in the past, but have not had any significant ones since I was about 8 weeks pregnant with Laszlo, 22 months (go figure). I'm 28 weeks pregnant now and I've started to have them sporadically, with no...

I always nurse DD (14 months) lying down on our sides, facing each other. I have never found this very comfortable but it does enable me to nap (or at least keep my eyes shut) during the night. We now only nurse at night and at nap time, i.e. always in this position. I have never found this...

ds has just got really enthusiastic with solids and doesn't really demand the breast, he's nearly 7 months weighs a little over 13lb and clearly needs my milk but in the day time he can't be bothered to ask for it and has increased his night wakings, he used to go 11 hours, last night he went for...

Hi. Been lurking here awhile. I have an 11 day old baby and I am having a rough time. I must have been latching her on wrong when I was in the hospital because I got blisters on the tips of my nipples. The blisters have popped and I have crescent shaped scabs on the tops of both nipples. It is...

I've tried to cancel it twice now but the original won't go away. Anyone got the answer on how to remove it (or at least change the date so its not so annoying). Cheers Amanda

Im so sad. My 9 day old baby has a cold and an eye infection. Poor thing she is stuffy but luckily not enough to make her not nurse. We have an appt with her doctor tomorrow for her eye. Can someone please tell me if there was a thread awhile back about putting breastmilk in the eye for...

I never was able to pump any amount greater than a couple of ounces, despite trying 3 different types of pumps, and he would adamantly refuse breast milk from a bottle after I'd saved enough to...

Bethany is 14 months old and is so gropey! When we are in public or at someone's home her arm is down my shirt. (this happens at home alot also but that's not as much of a problem) How do you stop it, besides wearing turtlenecks? I will pull her arm out and tell her "not right now" or "wait until...

DD, who two weeks ago wouldn't eat anything (babyfood, that is) is now an eating machine. She eats anything (except carrots) that we put in front of her as long as she can do it herself. My question is, and I think I know the answer, do we stop a meal because she's done eating or because it's been...

OK, we have six and nine month threads so there ought to be a three month one too, just to complete the multiples of three. :) DS is not so much of a cuddle bug anymore - he used to sleep curled up on my chest in the afternoon :( Last night he couldn't even go to sleep until after I finally put...

Lauren seems to have developed a problem with me consuming cow's milk. FOr 7 weeks she had normal mustard yellow poop, and then overnight they became a smelly frothy green. I thought at first it was a foremilk/hindmilk imbalance, but after 2 weeks of green I didn't see how that was possible. So for...

Wow, and I thought it was bad when I was 13 and they sent me a solicitation! "Richard" wrote in message ... I've always been careful to protect my credit rating. Apparently, my behavior has served as an example for my daughter. A few days ago,...

Hi All, Our 10 week old has just gone from waking once to waking twice in the night (and is very irritable until fed) so I have assumed its a growth spurt and am letting him feed as much and as long as he wants. Thing is, he is suckling away but there is no milk (he then gets frustrated). I...

I am presently nursing my third son, having nursed the older two for over two years each. It's been a mystery to me, over the years, why I always eventually become a one-sided nurser, on the left. I am more comfortable nursing on the left, it's true, but this time, in particular, I am...

any suggestions for where to buy interesting, simple mobiles -- no lights and music, just interesting designs. thanks!!!

Michael Jude will be 4 months old on Monday. He's nursing 70% of the time, 30% Similac thanks to his intensive care stay where he was indoctrinated to formula. Also he never seems satisfied at the breast and minutes after 30 mins. of nursing will carry on and then suck formula down like there is no...
