the saga goes on by
Anne Rogers
I'm at work, I just notice my boob was slightly sore, went to the loo to
inspect it and the bleb has returned. Massaged the sore spot and tried to
hand express, no luck, but I managed to stimulate a let down and now I'm
sore both sides :-(.

clogged duct update/remedy by
K.B.
I followed everyone's advice and I still wasn't getting any relief. I was in
so much pain I was getting worried with what to do. I made a bowl of hot
water and Epsom salt and soaked my whole breast in the bowl. I just leaned
over into it. It felt so good. It's a miracle. I feel so much better. I...

Flu-apillar by
Phoebe & Allyson
Poor baby was fine at bathtime, feverish at bedtime, cried
all night, and tested positive for Influenza A this morning.
She's on amantadine (Symmetrel), an anti-viral. Allyson and
I have been prescribed it prophylactically. Hales says L3 -
"amantadine is known to suppress prolactin production...

OT "Let me hold the baby" by
Cheryl S.
Why do some people not take no for an answer when they want to hold your
baby? We were just at an extended family holiday party and DS was
freaked out by all the noise and strange people. I spent most of the
time we were there standing and swaying in a quiet corner soothing him.
I knew if anyone...

Interesting (and sad) statistic by
Melissa
Yesterday at my bf'ing support group (which is actually barely about bf'ing
anymore since the babies are 4-8 mths old) the leader, who is an LC, said
that in the US 16% of women bf exclusively for 6 mths and around 2% (she
couldn't remember the exact figure) do it for one year. Although my...

Banana-bug by

(Sorry, Phoebe, to steal thread title from you.
I've no imagination!)
Today is Pillbug's 6-month birthday and BOY, was I
excited! DH got the video cam ready on the tripod,
I had fully charged batteries in the camera. It was

as in I nursed...

A success story...thank you all! by
Kathy
In light of the recent posts concerning someone giving up BF'ing, I
thought it would be a good time to let you all know that thanks to you I
have been exclusively BF'ing my daughter for almost 13 weeks. I believe
that for every person that comes here and eventually quits, many many
more get the...

Hmph! ;-) by
Emily Roysdon
Last night was dh's work Christmas party, and we arranged for the ILs to
take the kids. Rebekah, age 3, wanted it to be a sleep-over since we
brought up the idea of going to Nana's house, and by the time I dropped
them off there last night, they were both gung-ho. Noah, age 5 1/2, was

Nursing while pregnant. by
AlenasMom
I think I might need some links about this...
*blinks hard* I'm in denial, and too scared to take a test... but can
someone reassure me that this will be okay for Alena and a new baby if
that's the case...
What I thought was just nerves may indeed be morning sickness....

sore breast, what is it? by
K.B.
My 7 month old only eats from one side. Tonight I started getting this pain
in my breast. Not the nipple area. There seems to be a lump and it is so
tender. It sort of feels like when it's engorged but I'm not engorged. What
is this and what should I do. Since this is the only breast he will eat...

bleb? by
Anne Rogers
on further inspection I've got a small white blob on my nipple (is that
what you call a bleb?) I can't shift it, I've been trying for an hour
(pumping, nursing, hot compress, even dh sucking) and my boob is still
blocked. I'm off to bed now, really hoping ds will wake in the night, I'm
really sore,...

A sad good bye by
K-K ~Glass Boobs~
I think my sanity and well being are more important! my daughter was hurt
non by the bottle!
no I don't have PPD, I don't yell at my children, or hit them. I don't cry
for no apparent reason, I don't shut my self in the house. I don't follow
any of the criteria for PPD.
You guys are just ****ed off...

right boob, ds wouldn't nurse vigorously enough to get it sorted, now I'm
pumping with my purely yours, still no luck, tempted to try the isis in
the bath, a sore nipple has got to be better than a plugged duct!

Pregnant? by
CY
My DD (21 mths) in the last few days has been nursing slightly less,
sleeping terribly and a couple of times has exclaimed "yukky milk" while
nursing. My period is 3 days late. I plan to go to buy a pg test in the
a.m. but my question is, if I am pg, surely my milk wouldn't be affected
this early...
