Pediatrician recommends supplementing - should I? by LubsyB
Hello all! I'm sure this has been brought up many times before, but I was hoping for some advice. First some background: my baby girl is 5 weeks old and was 5lb 11oz at birth (not preemie -- 39 weeks gestation, just small, but perfectly healthy). We had a HORRIBLE time breastfeeding the first...

Setting one's self up for failure? by cjra
I am curious to hear other's perspectives. On another parenting board, where most of the members are young and first time moms, I read so often that they will 'try breastfeeding and if it doesn't go well, stop." Now, normally I'm all for trying and being realistic. But at least for me, such an...

Baby feeding issues at daycare by PK
E is now 6.5 mo old, and has been going to daycare (center based) for the last three weeks. I send her EBM with her, but she has consistently refused her bottles. Her care provider suggested that since she likes solids, I should include more solids during her day, and so we are currently doing...

How did you start solids? by [email protected]
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...

Yet another "ready for solids?" by Akuvikate
I know people post questions like this all the time, but... The plan is to start Bug on solids at 6 months, which will happen in 3 and a half weeks. However I'm really beginning to wonder if it may not make sense to start a bit sooner. Why I wonder: 1. I gave her a index card to gum and drool...
