First, let me introduce myself. My name is Sarah and I have been lurking since pregnancy. You all have great advice and have helped us alot. My DS is now 4 months old and loves his breast milk. Now for my question - I work one day a week but am gone for 14 hours. I pump at least 3 times with a...

My one year old requires either walking or rocking to sleep and with a pacifier. I was trying to get her out of this habit and was trying to keep her down on the bed for few minutes so that she can sleep on her own(after ofcourse I have rocked her for sometime). But as we know babies donot like...

When it's freshly expressed, my milk has no smell, except maybe mildly sweet, or similar to cows milk. But after freezing and thawing, it takes on a smell more like what I remember formula smelling like - not really pleasant, maybe a yeasty sort of smell. There is no chance that my milk is sour...

DD Ilona has been waking up regularly at night for the last 4 nights. She is four months old and since two and half she has slept all night, normally 10 hours from 8:30pm to 6:30am The holidays were a bit hectic and schedules were changed a bit, now that we are back to normal, she has been waking...

"oregonchick" wrote in message ... I am almost looking forward to a mudslide...(wait, did I just say that?). It would be reassuring I guess to have a bm, even a big ugly one. Does bm stand for bowel movement or big...

Last night Will slept in his cot (in our room) from 8pm till 2:40am!! WOW! Then again until 5:30, when I put him in with me until a lazy 9am :) We had been doing my softer version of CC since we got back from our 5 weeks away on Friday, and he'd been co-sleeping, feeding to sleep that whole...

Does anyone know why my 7.5 month old son would have increased his poos to one every 2 hours or less? The colours are all different, no blood, no new foods, and it has only been the last 2 days. 6 month needles were this morning, so unrelated. He has also started to *scream* with nappy changes...

Morgan has been up ALL nite complaining about her privates itching! I realize the diarrhea caused her some redness, but this is ridiculous. What can I try besides diaper cream and the ointment prescribed for rash (which I don't see). She is just flaming red from her vagina to her bum. She...

Madi (5.5wks) nurses almost constantly all evening, which I understand is normal. However, she seems to get little milk from this (no audible swallowing sounds, no "milk stupor"). I figure this is b/c of both her constant nursing and evening slowdown of production. Due to soreness, etc before...

How are Brazos and his mother doing these days? And how are you and Leina? -- C, mama to three year old nursling

This seems like a weird thing to ask, but how would you cut back your supply? Since we are only at 4 wks now, I am assuming my supply is still hormone driven, and not supply and demand. However, my supply continues to increase with just pumping, and I regularly pump 12-16 oz every 4-5 hrs. This...

DD is 4 months old, exclusively breastfed, (doesn't even take a bottle, i've pretty much given up on that). I practice attachment parenting we spend all day together, I try to do things (shopping, bills, etc) when she is asleep but most of the time, she is with me. She does not want anyone else...

I have a friend that still breastfeeds her 4 year old son...This seems odd to me, what do you all think? I try to stay out of their business, but I just wonder if there are any laws broken or something.

G'day Ha. Once I post something (see FAO:DrRuth thread) then I think of questions to ask.. 1. Some one remind me the best time to start introducing a bottle. Late enough to avoid nipple confusion. Early enough that it is likely that Leina will agree to drink from the bottle. Reason is so DH can...

Hi all DS is 5 days off 6 months. As he seemed interested in everything we ate, is learning to sit up well and is a big boy we thought we'd offer him a bit of parsnip and bm puree on Christmas day. His face was a pictu). It was as if we had offered him a plate of soured lemons!. Anyway, since...
