Lily's a nurse-a-holic, as she should be, and today I noticed that I have small red bumps on my areolas. I seem to remember the same thing happening with Laszlo, but I'm totally thrush-phobic and I'm petrified of getting it. I can't see anything white in Lily's mouth, but I'm just paranoid. I...

Are there any guidelines on how many hours a day babies should be sleeping? My baby is 10 weeks old and still sleeps around 15-18 hours in a day. Is this about right or should I try to keep him awake/entertained longer? He doesn't fall asleep by himself but when he gets overstimulated I rock him...

Is it possible to have thrush without any symptoms? Caterpillar has what is definitely a yeast rash, and now that I'm looking, those white spots on my nipples might not be dried milk. I've been a little sore, but I've attributed it to too much pumping. No itchiness or pain...

I was going to keep going twice a day indefinately, but DD bit me really, really hard two nights ago and then did it again yesterday morning and again last night. I tried the usual ways to stop her, but she got hysterical when I unlatched her and wasn't even interested in going back on. She's...

on b/fing. I have a friend who just delivered her baby at 34 weeks. She had mild spina bifida (they closed the small hole and say she will suffer no lasting effects) and she has been receiving bottles the entire time (all EBM.) I fear that the baby will never be able to b/f and I'm trying not to be...

Ollie's started biting while nursing. He did it before when he was a little baby, and I managed to get him to stop by pulling him into my breast. Now he's 17 months old, and I don't think that will work. He's been nursing less frequently lately, which makes sense, but it's still important to him...

Every night when I put Kivi to bed, I turn out the light, snuggle up close, and she nurses to sleep. Sometimes, if she gets impatient with me, I say "hold on, let me get my breast out!" Since she's now in full-time daycare at Chris's work, and he brings her home every evening. She's always very...

I don't have anything to do with this company other than I love their pump! I've owned an ISIS and a PY and I've used the hospital grade Hollister pump. I have to say Whisperwear rocks! Does anyone else have one? It's so awesome! I have 2 free hands, I'm not tied to an outlet, I don't have...

Hello everyone I've been using the Bambino Mio system and whilst the performance is good I'm just not completely happy with the fit of the Mio Soft outers. Has anybody any experience of these or does anybody know of a better outer that will fit the bambino prefolds. I've got too many to just try...

OK, I know this is way out of line, but you are the biggest bunch of people I know so can I pretty please with sugar on top ask you a professional question? If not, please disregard this message!

We've had our ups n downs with b/fing and happily now they are almost all ups :-) The downs are the night sleeping bit. We've gone from full night sleeping at 4.5months (7pm to 7am) down to 4hr slots, then 3hr, now at almost 10 months old it's 2hrly from 11pm til 7am. I am a complete...

First of all, thank you soooooooo much Dagny for calling me at the hospital. Your advice came in handy over the following days with regard to breastfeeding. I unfortunately had to have my phone turned off by Friday due to lack of sleep. I think they forgot to turn it back on. Okay, so if you...

Hi, My cousin's baby is 6 days old and healthy. She was kind of going back and forth about whether she wanted to breastfeed and finally decided to start the baby on formula. Now she feels she really wants to breastfeed. Her breasts are very full even though she has used the cabbage leaves and...
