I have been sick for the past 2 1/2 weeks! My aunt just came over and gave me some Comtrex and without even thinking I just popped them in my mouth! I am currently BF my 13 1/2 month old daughter quite a bit still! Not only am I sick now I feel like an idiot for taking these before even finding...

Hi, have been feeding my son since birth (he is now nine months old) and my question is - is there something wrong if he hardly accepts solids? I fed my daughter - now aged 19 (!) until she was fifteen months old, and never had this problem. Is it boy babies who are the fussy ones?

he is not very interested in anything other then breast milk, straight from the source. Will eventually take some EBM. NOt very interested in the range of solids, such as rice cereal, fruit, veg, whatever. will put a cruskit in his mouth but is still a bit little for this i think. so, any...

I am doing some research on lovey's and want to understand better how parents with toddlers feel about the items their children get attached to. If you would like to help me, I have a short on line survey that asks about that topic. I would appreciate any assistance...if you know of any parents...

Hello, Is there anyone out there that hated breastfeeding at first? DD is 2 weeks old and I really hate breastfeeding. My anxiety starts to rise about 1 hour before each feed because I know she's going to be hungry soon. Every time she fusses the tears well up in my eyes because I know what's...

Anyone have any advice? I'm at my wits end. :( I messed up. My son has always fallen asleep nursing, and we still cosleep. Unfortunately, he has a BAD case of baby bottle tooth and is about to lose one tooth and at least one other is beginning to decay. My poor pretty baby with such an ugly...

snip Congrats grandma. :-) There is 26 months between my two, and it is good. DD7 wasn't napping much, but she did go to daycare a couple of days a week. You still have all things you need, you haven't forgotten too much, the older can be helpful when you're feeding, once the younger is moving...

Hello, I am a new mother of a 4 week old. I have been exclusively pumping since she was 1 week. Currently, I am pumping approximately 3.5 ounces a session. I am taking Blessed Thistle to try and raise this amount. I have a Medela Pump in Style and pump for 15-25 minutes. I would like to try...

My cousin stopped breastfeeding her 5 month old daughter :o( Not a reason in the world except her pediatrician said it was ok to stop if she wanted to.(doesn't mean it's right imo) She was a sahm with tons of relatives to take the baby whenever she wanted, never had a problem with...

My daughter is almost 18 months old, and nurses pretty frequently throughout the day but sleeps all night. I no longer wake up full, and in fact the other day went from 4pm one day to 8am the next day with no nursing, and I didn't feel full in the morning(that wasn't intentional, I was on the phone...

I think it's funny, my milk still lets down minutes before my 10 month old daughter wakes up! I don't remember it lasting this long with my older daughter. Marie

Someone on another of my newsgroups posted this link, and urged anyone as outraged as she was to write a letter of protest to the editor. I figured some of you might be interested too.

In my neverending quest to find *something* that will increase my milk supply, I am currently taking: 80mg of domperidone/day, 16 capsules of Fenugreek/day and 16 capsules of Blessed Thistle/day. SIGH All this, and I'm still oly making *maybe* 1/2 of what I need for my twin boys. While...

My daughter will be 5 in October and has not nursed in about 4 days now. Maybe it's 5 days, I didn't start keeping count til it was too late to remember which day it was. She has only nursed at bedtime for a few minutes for the past year. I haven't particularly enjoyed bf with this child but I...
