I will get a CT scan of abdomen and pelvis (non contrast) next week. The reason of the scan is to look for kidney stones. The lady who made my appointment confirmed that I will not be injected anything. I am still wondering, even if I am not injected anything, will the scan affect my milk? Should I...

I never got to this point with Nathanael, but today I said something I never expected myself to say, which was "I'd stop breastfeeding Ada, if she would take a bottle". Luckily for her, she won't take a bottle, so I won't stop, but it's a close call right now. If breastfeeding was going perfectly...

I am a nursing instructor in the state of Delaware. I take nursing students on an obstetric unit in a local hospital. One of the subjects taught to the new mothers should be dental care beginning with care of the newborn's gums, however, this is rarely seen. The belief being since there are no...

My baby is 7 weeks old and started to get really gassy/fussy about 3 weeks ago. I am/was a HUGE cow milk drinker (which is kinda gross... if you think about us being the only mammals who drink another mammals' milk... and odd that so many people shudder at human milk.) and eater (milk, yogurt, ice...

"Donna Metler" wrote in message ... Alli's 14 months. I currently pump only twice a day-morning and night. I still haven't gotten AF back. WHile I admit to it having been kind of nice to go almost 2 years without...

I am just curious & thought I'd post here since so many of us seem to be using the Mirena. With DD, I got AF back at 7 months pp, using mini-pill BC. This time around, I was using a diaphragm for a few months and then switched to Mirena at around 5 months pp. I am now at 8 months pp and no sign...

My baby is only 7 weeks old, but I think I started my period today. She has been nursing like mad - the lochia stopped 2 weeks ago - surely this isn't that again... Is this possible?!?

http://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/viewarticle.aspx?id=328277 A Penrith mum has appeared on national TV to explain why she is still breastfeeding her daughter who is nearly eight - and why she gave her older daughter breast milk as a ninth birthday present. Veronika Robinson appeared...

as they don't consider breastfeeding to be an important enough circumstance to warrant it. So no Zoloft for me. I'm not prepared to wean, so I'll just have to bear with the depression for a bit longer and/or find other ways to cope. This sucks, and not just for me, but for so many mothers this...

Hi, I have a 3 week old and feeding REALLY hurts. I realise that it is normal to have some pain and that it can take a while to get used to it, so I was hoping for some feedback - whether I have issues or it's just standard. DD feeds for about 10 minutes most of the time and over the past few...

I decided to get a new pumping set as I needed some new valves anyway and the tubes are becoming worn. So I located the supplier in the UK, looked at their website and picked up the phone. This is what it said on the website "HygieniKit Collection Sets Ameda HygieniKit Collection Set : the most...

Madeline is now 2 months old...how time flies! She weighed in at a nicely average 11lbs, but is a lanky 24 inches long (95 %ile)! Anyone have advice about car seats? At this rate she will outgrow the infant seat by height well before she meets the weight requirement of the toddler seat I had...

I think it's great to see Tia Carrere dance on DWTS while still breastfeeding her 3 month old baby. It's so funny to watch her against other women who have so little body fat and so many six packs! The greatest thing is she's such a sensual woman at a natural weight and still strutting her stuff in...
