Hello, I knew that breasts change a lot during pregnancy, but I'm little worried about mine. It's about my areolas. My breasts have began increasing about 16th week and I think their increase is typical. But my areolas growths beyond my expectations. I've checked and they are almost 4" in diameter...

What does it mean if the baby doesn't wet diaper much at nights? I change her diaper before putting her to bed (9pm). I don't change her at all until next morning. She nurses before going to bed and atleast twice in sleep at night. We cosleep so most of the time we both are asleep through...

I've just tried to look for something on hales online, usually I log in as guest and then I am able to search, but the site has been changed a bit and I can't search at all. What I'm looking for is what affect eyedrops for glaucoma might have, on another news group this is the reason a baby has...

dear all, i am trying to decid e which stroller to buy as my daughter has outgrown her infant car seat at 5 months.... we are deciding between the peg perego pliko, the maclaren trek, and the combi. Does anyone have any experience with any of these? I'd love some feedback... Also, in general, ...

As of today, I've officially been nursing for two years! My little sweetheart is two today! Two years ago I was in labor, and this morning she woke me up by snuggling up to me and saying, "Mommy, nurse Laura Anne please." I had always planned to nurse for at least a year, and then a vague "as...

We'll get this all worked out soon. Since Sunday, DD has been feeding like a maniac. Yesterday she slept 2 1hr stretches, and a few 10-15 minute naps throughout the day. Otherwise, she was feeding. Plenty of wet diapers and poops were either green or yellow - equal # of both. She fed last night...

http://www.boston.com/yourlife/health/diseases/articles/2004/02/03/sure_breast_is_best_but_is_it_worth_it/ I usually enjoy Dr. Sanghavi's writing, but was extremely dissapointed by this. I'm composing a letter to the editor, but it probably won't be published as it will be too long. He...

Hi, all - I seem to remember some discussion a while back about the availability of Breastmilk from a Milk Bank, and wondered if anyone else knows what I'm talking about. I need to know if there's anything in the vicinity of North Carolina - I've just met a couple who had a baby via a surrogate,...

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...

Short version. Will post longer version later. Siena Pascale. Born 3 Dec, 9lb 6oz via c-section. Due officially 23 Nov 2003, but I estimated 7 Dec, since my other babies were late. Dark hair, looks like her older sister, breastfeeds well, sleeps well at night.

My daughter was breastfed until the age of two or so. She's now four and still is rather ...umm fond of my breasts. If she see's me naked, she acts very happy and wants to touch and kiss my breasts. If she's lying next to me she likes to pet me. I discourage this behavior because frankly I get...

October 21, 2003 Norway Leads Industrial Nations Back to Breast-Feeding By LIZETTE ALVAREZ SLO - Norway has revolutionized a woman's right to breast-feed. Mothers breast-feed when and where they want: buses, parks, cafes, stores.

Well, I'm back at work and have pumped twice already plus once before I left home. I got 8 ounces at home, 9 ounces during my first session at work, and 6 ounces during my second session. I'm planning on pumping three times while at work, I'm really paranoid that I'm not going to be able...

Also posted to the new "test" group, misc.kids.family-life. (MKFL's info available at http://tinyurl.com/82cs) Okay, I haven't posted here in a long long time, because breastfeeding has been smooth, and my life hasn't. But here I am, back w/ a problem. (I'm sure I'll be back full force in a few...

We had an appointment for both the girls (DD1: 22 months, DD2: 7 months) today at 1. I had to drag DS along as well, and it went, surprisingly, pretty good this time. Doc checked DD1 out. She's about 32" tall and about 25lbs (IIRC, I can't remember exact numbers) she's doing pretty good. ...

I'm really hoping someone can help me as soon as possible. I am currently nursing a 17 month old (healthy) toddler. I had a nuclear stress test today and received contradictory information about how long I need to stop nursing. I called the hospital a week ago and the physicist at the...

Thanks to all who attended the first official group photo of misc.kids.breastfeeding. It came out swell. It was taken just after a lecture "Breast feeding and Beauty tips". http://img57.imageshack.us/img57/8657/silent4xk.jpg

Has anyone found a cheaper alternative to breast milk storage bags? 5.99 for 25 is the cheapest I've seen the Gerber bags, and all the other brands are more expensive. I was looking at regular 2 mil freezer bags, but I don't think they're presterilized. Is it really necessary that the bags...
