Our Scariest Experience by
New York Jen
In order to enter our apartment, you open our front door and walk up a
flight of stairs...there are downstairs units and upstairs units here. I
came home quickly last Friday to let the dogs out and I let Laszlo sit on
the bottom stair like he has recently enjoyed doing. I slid the locks down
on...

Constipated BF Baby (I think) & Gas by
Wendy J.
Hi,
Dd has a bm approximately every week to every week and a half which I
know is perfectly normal for an exclusively bf baby. When she goes it
is what I would call "normal" (paste-like and fills the diaper...a
total blast!) :-)
However, the past few days she has had gas (which she normally gets...

getting ready! by
Dagny
Hi guys! My pregancy is nearly 37 weeks along and I am starting to get
excited about birth. I do realize I probably have about four weeks to go
give or take a week, but knowing that it could be any time really is, well,
it's something.
My nipples now seem to protrude all the time -- as opposed...

I was down to my pre-pregnancy weight within about 3 weeks -- yay!
But I need to lose some weight regardless, at least enough to fit
back into my pre-preg clothes. The weight may be the same, but the
body shape isn't. :-(
So I'd like to cut back, but the problem is,...

Everyone is asking the question.... by
Shannon G
"Are you STILL breastfeeding?", or "When are you going to wean?"
How do I approach this, and not start a confrontation, or be too rude.
The
true answer is, "I have absolutely no idea when I am going to wean". She
doesn't eat much solids now, so I feel that she needs the nutrition...

joining the club of working BFing mums by
Anne Rogers
I just got a job! 16 hours per week probably spread over 4 days, so 4
hours at a time. DS will probably need 2 bottles during that and
travelling time, but I'm hoping I won't need to pump at work, I'll
probably pump as soon as I get home and hopefully get 1 bottle worth and
continue my routine of...

1 month well baby visit - I'm doing good! by
[email protected]
I took my little guy in to the doctor today for his one month well baby
visit. He was 7 lb, 8 oz at birth and 7 lb, 1 oz at discharge - now he's
11 lb, 12 oz! The doctor was really impressed. He joked and said that I
had the nursing mother record for the county! I just can't believe how big
he's...

baby VERY uncomfortable by

My 6 mo old DD is a very happy baby. She always smiles and even when
she's hungry, she just calls out, doesn't cry. Well.. all changed
yesterday. I gave her some avocado mashed up around 11am. She had it
once a month ago and loved it. She ate it well yesterday too. In the
evening I gave it again...

She has a bit of a pattern to her sleeping now ... finally ;) She
sleeps the first stretch about 5.5-7 or so hours and then wakes every
2.5 to 3 hours after. We are usually in bed for about 12 hours all
told! She takes a great 3 hour nap a day and that is...

Latch problem, need help by
CY
Many latch problems can be corrected if caught early enough. I urge you to
seek the help of a good IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation
Consultant) as often the ones that see you in the hospital are not
certified, not to mention that they are not all created equal. You can find
one in...

One month in, and not fun yet by
Dan Kegel
We've been bf'ing (with sns assist) for a month now.
It's working ok; DS is gaining weight like crazy,
mom can pump 4 ounces easily in one quick sitting,
and baby is generally happy and not too colicky.
Problem is, mom isn't really enjoying it yet. Her
nipples are pretty sore from DS latching on...

Breastfeeding and PPD by
Kereru
Hello, I'm just wondering if I am the only one out there who had PPD and
breastfeeding DIDN'T make it better. I have heard numerous times how it
helps PPD but for me I swear it made it worse.
I breastfed for ten weeks and the whole time felt like I had PMT, it was
awful. I reluctantly gave up...

I have been taking fenugreek (4 pills, 4 times a day) since Thursday and
