Triggering colostrums and milk flow by
username
I'm embarrassed to ask this, and I'm glad that no one can see me blushing,
but will my husband's propensity to suckle my breasts stimulate early milk
and offset Mother Nature's time clock? I'm in my eighth month and I'm
worried that his sucking (Coitus is against doctor's orders) is...

baby hair barrettes by
V.
OK, Madeline's hair is now long enough to be getting in her eyes, but not
long enough to really stay back when brushed. She's only 8 months, but had
a few inches of hair when she was born. I bought some "baby" size
barrettes, and then realized that she could choke on them if they came out....

"bad" milk causing vomiting? by
V.
My 5 month old had an episode of violent vomiting at daycare yesterday.
They said she ate normally, took a nap and when the caregiver picked her up
she vomited three times in rapid succession, and it sounds like it might
have been projectile vomiting. She came home, took an extra long nap (45
min...

baby carrier for gardening? by
V.
I'm posting here instead of the babywearer.com forum b/c I remember to read
this group and that's about it. :)
I have made several ring slings, wraps and a Mei Tai. I also have two
structure soft carriers (infantino and one with Pooh on it). I tried all of
these yesterday trying to get my 5month...

ambien, melatonin or valerian? (also, hypnosis) by
V.
I'm taking a poll. :)
Seriously, I'm a lifelong insomniac and although I experienced a temporary
"cure" through new mom exhaustion I'm having trouble again. Curse of the
baby who sleeps well, I guess. *duck*
I do coping skills/relaxation, etc., but it's to the point that I need some
extra...

shingles! (& vicodin question) by
V.
Yep, I got shingles. :( very sucky.
Started with a painful, itchy rash on my rear end of all places on Mon. I
had a PAP scheduled for today anyway, so I figured I'd have it checked then.
Yesterday I started getting very swollen and painful lymph nodes along my
groin area on that side. Today...

teething or hand, foot & mouth disease? by
V.
Little Madi is 3 months old and has been pretty cranky the past couple of
days. She has been drooling more than usual and attempting to eat her hand.
She keeps biting down on my nipple when nursing, and has been comforted by
chewing on a wet washcloth (thanks Caledonia!).
I'd been looking at her...

Bear River Pro Jogger review? (xposted m.k.p. and m.k.b) by
V.
I just bought a Bear River brand jogging stroller at Sam's Club on a whim.
I've got it home, still unopened and am debating whether to return it. I'm
not sure we'd use a jogging stroller (we don't use our regular stroller
much, but she's only 3 mos), but it was a good deal! :)
Anyway, wondering...

water-filled teethers? by
V.
I remember "water" filled teething rings that had a floating animal inside
each "bubble". I think they probably weren't really water filled since I
think they didn't really freeze hard, so maybe they've been taken off the
market? I've been looking for one since I think Madi would like...

bottle cleaning question by
V.
Well, I'm due in 3wks! In preparation I got out my Isis pump and put it
together, checked to make sure I knew how it worked, etc. in case I need it
right away (for nipple stim in labor or unexpected circumstances after
birth, we don't plan to introduce EBM until at least 4-6wks). Anyway, after

need source for breast milk storage bags by
V.
Well, my little Madi (10wks) has started daycare and despite the fact that
she generally refused to take a bottle from me or my husband (but would take
one from my mom when I was away), she's doing great with the bottle at
daycare! Although, she will only take it from the head infant teacher...

infant vitamin supplements by
V.
At our 2 month checkup, the pediatrician recommended that we start giving
her a multivitamin. Actually, she recommended vitamin D supplementation b/c
we live in Maine, don't go outdoors right now unless completely bundled, and
Madi is quite fair skinned. She also said that she recommends giving...

2 month checkup! by
V.
Madeline is now 2 months old...how time flies!
She weighed in at a nicely average 11lbs, but is a lanky 24 inches long (95
%ile)!
Anyone have advice about car seats? At this rate she will outgrow the
infant seat by height well before she meets the weight requirement of the
toddler seat I had...

I feel like a genius! by

I was all set to write another "help me!" post because Madi is just not
taking to the bottle well and I start work in a couple weeks. We've tried
different brands of nipples, different people giving her the bottle, using
the car seat, etc. She would either just gnaw on the nipple and some...

can crying really cause choking? by
V.
I keep reading about people being worried that their baby will cry so hard
or long that he/she will choke. I'm not planning on doing some hardcore
"cry it out" type of thing, but I'd like to know that even if my baby is
crying she is still safe even if I have to put her in her crib to take...

how to get her to open her mouth? by
V.
Well, I'm feeling much better! My nipple soreness is no longer "grit your
teeth and whimper", but more like rubbing a bruise. Also, Miss Madeline had
gained a pound over her birthweight at our 2 wk Dr appt!! So, I'm sure
she's getting plenty of BM.
Although the LC and nurses at the hospital said...

newbie questions by

I had my baby! Madeline Gale (Madi) was born 11/29, 6lbs14oz!
Nursing is going well so far. She seems to have read the same books I did
b/c even the difficulties have been typical and solved readily by stuff I
learned here! Sore-ish nipples still, but I think it's just reg. "breaking
in" type...

Breastfeeding lowers risk of mother developing diabetes by
V.
Here's an msnbc article about a JAMA article stating that women who
breastfeed for a year have a 15% lower risk of developing type II diabetes
later. Each additional year of breastfeeding lowers the risk by 15%.
Interesting!
