NIPping in private by
Mogget
There has been discussion lately of negative reactions to NIPping, but a
bizarre thing happened to me yesterday.
I was feeding my baby on the sofa in the living room. I always feed her
there because it is the only place in the house I can get comfortable
and have enough back support.
The dustmen...

shelley

a lump that my ob/gyn feels we need to investigagte more (the
ultrasound indicated it's not a cyst -ie: not fluid filled). He says i

procedure is over. I'm just...

Letdown Problems with Pump by
Lucy
My DD is 9 months old and I have been back at work for almost 5 months,
pumping milk for her during the day.
All was going fine until this week. Suddenly I don't seem to get a letdown
when I use the pump. This results in me getting very little milk at any
pumping, so I've been having to use my...

sleeping idea by
Rosie
Well I've got this idea which seems to be helping with calming down DD at
bedtime, so I thought I'd share it...
I want to make another nice association with sleep, on top of nursing,
(which is fine, but she is nearly 1 and cutting teeth a lot, and sometimes I
get very sore when she nurses a lot to...

I have 2 months ;( by
badgirl
To lose 30 lbs and I am still nursing. Now normally I would just
eliminate carbs, drop the weight fast and then slowly introduce them
back into my diet. That's what I did before I got pregnant with
Nicolas and I lost it fast. Unfortunately because I got pregnant right
away (within 6 weeks of...

egg white allergy and BF by
~gwyn
DS is 14 months old and apparently allergic to egg whites. When I
first introduced egg whites at around 12 months, his chin immediately
blotched up. I waited until last week to try them again and he
immediately acted like his tongue was itching and his cheeks and chin
were covered in red...

Antibiotics in breast milk by
Cathy
My coffee group was talking about antibiotics this morning, and how long
they last in breast milk. One of the ladies was on erythromycin (sp?) for a
nasty bug that was going round, and her child was suffering diarrhoea as a
result. If she had her last pill on Monday, how long should it take...

Nursing established by by
Irish Marie
Just wondering when you all felt that you had your nursing established by?
Is it generally not established until after the 6 week growth spurt or can
it be established beforehand?

breast pump effectiveness by
ted
Why they won't/can't make a breastpump as effective as a baby? I use
lactina at work but I heard even that isn't really as effective as
nursing. I know the formula companies just won't make a good one but
what about Medela et al? I for one think that their pumps are
overpriced so why not make them...

Human Milk Banks by
Corinne
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,...

Grrrr! Brigance Development Scale and Weaning by

My daughter's teacher had given me a copy of the Brigance Inventory of Early
Childhood Development a while back and, out of curiosity, I was checking to
see where Vernon's progress was falling on the scale (his gross motor skills
seem about 6 months ahead to me, and I wanted to see if I was about...

pacifiers: yay or nay? by
Irrational Number
My mother does not like that sometimes we use
a pacifier with Pillbug. She says that his
mouth will grow funny. I'd never heard this
before and my husband says that the book says
that's not true.
Still, what are the pros and cons of a pacifier?
Thanks,
Anita

First- some background. . . I have 3 girls, ages (almost) 3 years, 15

NIP not a problem by
Irrational Number
Pillbug (11 weeks) has been on two long trips now
within a month, from northern California to southern
California and back twice. Each time, we've
had to stop about every 1.5 hours to nurse for
half an hour or more. I worried a bit at first,
'cause I'm really into staying in my own bubble

I just found out I am pregnant (about 6 weeks). I am still nursing our 14
month old and she shows no signs of wanting to be weaned. She drinks from a
straw and a cup and eats every kind of food imaginable. I have an 8 year old

Baby Food: Center for Science in the Public Interest Report by
Sue
I didn't see anything in that report that was a new finding. The biggest
thing it said that was already known is that they don't add anything to baby
food in the under six month set, which is what you should be looking for
anyway.

Amoxycillin Question by
A&G&K
I'm told that 500 mg Amoxycillin is OK to take whilst bf. My question is
how much comes through in the breastmilk and will it be likely to give DD
any side effects?
DD has had this drug before for an ear infection, but got diarrhoea and was
taken off the drug early. I have been putting off...

Best advise for bf after c-section by
Irish Marie
A friend of mine has just had a baby girl today by c-section (I am so upset
for her, they sectioned her because they thought the baby was too big, it
turns out she was 8lb 10ozs, her last baby was 10lb 2oz so I reckon this was
unnecessary!)
Anyway, before she had the baby she was intending on bf so...

Breastfeeding as contraception? by
Lina
How long (or) can you use breastfeeding as reliable contraception?
IIRC, it was 6 months as long as you're exclusively breastfeeding. Is that
correct?
